About me
A ranked game is a draft mode game type available to level 30 summoners with at least 16 champions available (NOT including free week champions). Summoners are placed on a game ladder and ranked against one another according to a hidden Matchmaking Rating. Players are divided into Challenger, Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze tiers, with each tier further subdivided into 5 divisions, apart from Challenger, which only has one tier. Once gained, a tier cannot be lost except by four weeks of inactivity in the particular ranked mode (this applies only to tiers, and not divisions). Furthermore, inactivity may result in a change of league placement upon re-activation. Players who have not played their first 10 "placement" games will not be able to see their rating in their profile until the 10 are played, at which point they will be placed in a particular League, and corresponding Tier and Division. Ranked games are considered the competitive alternative to normal games.
Ranked games are playable in both the 3v3 and 5v5 bracket. In the 3v3 bracket, you must queue as a complete team consisting of 3 players. In the 5v5 bracket, you can queue as a full team consisting of 5 players, as a duo queue with 1 other person, or as a solo queue. Statistics are recorded for ranked games by the type of queue that you initiated the game with.
Premade: In team-based ranked play, a player will have to set up a 3-man and 5-man team with which to play for 3v3 and 5v5 matches respectively. In order to participate, you must be a member of a ranked team, which can be formed by any level 30 player. This is done through the 'Create a Ranked Team' button on one's profile.
Non-Premade: In non-team ranked play, a player will be able to either play solo, or in a two-man team (duo). This is only available for 5v5 matches.

I recommend every player to have atleast 1 Ability Power Rune Page and 1 Attack Damage Runge Page
For a basic AD rune page I'll list the runes can choose from in the 4 types of runes
Sorcery

Offensive Laner 3

Defensive Lane In my opinion
Runic Blessing
is not worth a mastery point compared to
Juggernaut
which is an excellent mastery
Offensive AD Jungle

Defensive AD Jungle
I've taken the time to calculate which mastery points are spent best and why.
If you use a mix of the runes and masteries you'll always end up with 10% CooldownReduction which is very good.

Honestly, I can explain it better. Summoners Code is the Codex of Teamspiritism.

If you're playing AD-Carry/Assassin you want to build lots of damage so you can complete your job as killing enemy oppenents, same for AP Carries just build lots of AP so your spells can hit like trucks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvDq5EeVw-s&feature=youtu.be&t=16s
