LoL Runes

These are the New Runes that are showcased during the dev update by riot. Other lesser runes will still have an impact but will be built around your main Primary Runes in LoL.

Summoners will choose TWO paths: one PRIMARY and one SECONDARY.
(You cannot pick the same path twice.)

  • The PRIMARY path has one “Keystone Slot” and “3 Lesser Slots”.
  • The SECONDARY path has one Trait and a choice of 2 of the 3 Lesser Slots.

Each Slot provides a unique selection of new lol runes.

The Five Paths

There are five paths you can choose from, this choice is by far the most important since it determines what Keystone Runes you can use (The Best Runes In League of Legends).

LoL Rune Paths Description
Domination
Burst Damage and Target Access.
 Domination LoL
Inspiration
Creative Tools and rule bending.
 Inspiration LoL
Resolve
Durability and crowd control.
 Resolve LoL
Sorcery
Empowered abilities and resource manipulation.
 Sorcery LoL
Precision
Improved attacks and sustained damage.
