i was looking at the build "Ghost of Stanpar" for Pantheon and I saw that 3 armor pen quints = 9.99 armor pen now i may not have the runes yet but i thought for sure it was 11.something unless it was always like this
if it's a nerf of armor pen i would like to know would it be better to simply get flat ad runes? i heard they were buffed quite a bit and I'm not very knowledgeable of the math behind LoL

It really depends on your champ. Pantheon is good with ArP because AD is only gonna get him so far till they get 100AR+
On the other hand, you'd want more AD runes if you were playing AD Kat (some play AP, it's personal preference, I'd have to say) because it scales well with her skills.

Yes Armor Pen runes were nerfed.
Haikus are easy
But sometimes they don't make sense

Agreed with B-Wong. Depends on the champ. ArP runes are still better, in my opinion, for champs that actually DO armor damage. For champs that use AD but deal magic damage.... AD runes are better. There are a few champs that do this, such as Katarina.
