this is a basic guide for league of legends player , who are new to the runes .
for purchasing the runes you need to go to the shop in the game
there are four kind of runes in the game
1 Red runes
2 Blue runes
3 yellow runes
4 big runes you know them as quintettes we cal them quintin tarantino
You must know what type of hero you are playing to know the hero types you playing please check this post.
when you found out what kind of hero you are playing you need to buy the runes for that hero type
for example for a Ap you need to buy quintettesfor AP like 4.9 Ap power this will help you much in early game and this is the deference between a noob and a pro ,
RED runes are used for attack damage magic penetration and critical , such stuff
Yellow are specialized in defense such health , armour and mana and health regen
Blue are specilaly used for Mana and Ap points , also u can get best magic resst there
if you purchase the attack damage in blue it will give you less points than it will give you so you will be disadvantaged ,, i try always to do the best with them and that's for me in using the most powerful runes for each character for example i use magic resist in a AD built up as blue not attack damage nor nothing else
when you are buying a rune buy 9 of it to maximize the effect , using 1 rune of each type is stupid , .01% effect will use every 100 attacks and it will not happen early in the game
remember that a good rune build will give you a first blood or a good durability to take skill 4 faster than any one .
you can not purchase runes with RP , but you can take the rune pages with RP
