These League Of Legends Runes And Champions Will Be A Lot Cheaper In October

League of Legends players will be able to save a lot of money (or Influence Points) on their purchases next month. Riot Games plans to supplement their usual sales on champions and skins with a price cut on runes.

Starting at 12 PM PDT on September 29th, Riot is going to mark down these runes' prices permanently:

• Greater Mark of Attack Damage: 205 IP ⇒102 IP
• Greater Mark of Magic Penetration: 410 IP ⇒205 IP
• Greater Seal of Armor: 205 IP ⇒102 IP
• Greater Glyph of Magic Resist: 205 IP ⇒102 IP
• Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage: 1025 IP ⇒512 IP
• Greater Quintessence of Ability Power: 1025 IP ⇒512 IP

These runes provide bonuses to player's stats. Players usually hold off on playing Ranked matches at level 30 before they can buy two full pages of runes: one for Attack Damage champions and one for Ability Power champions. It's a somewhat annoying drain on player's Influence Points, which I'm sure most people would rather spend on unlocking new champions instead. This discount should benefit a ton of players, in other words.

A few days after these runes get a price cut, the October deals will start. Every four days, Riot will cut the price of three champions and skins. Here's the full list of champions and skins that will get discounts during the month, in no particular order:

A lot of those champions are worth picking up. Darius, Jinx and Morgana are some of the newbie-friendly champions in the game. Janna and Thresh are both top-shelf support characters. Fizz, meanwhile, is a good pick for players that want to carry the team but aren't great at intricate combos.
