My AD vs. APen investigation is at home, and I'm at a different place for the weekend. Here are some additional considerations where AD runes shine:
--Early game for last-hitting.
--Vs. structures (lol).
--Jungling, except Dragon and Baron.
--Heavy AD scaling champs like Renekton and Lee Sin. On a unit per unit basis in my analysis, this isn't so clear, but I'm going to assume this largely applies in conjunction with the other three points.
And now, the stupid nuances of LoL that can either get you killed or save your life. See if you know what happened!
--Let's say you're chilling in a patch of grass in lane and you're soaking exp from a nearby minion feud. Suddenly, your champion starts auto-attacking them for no apparent reason.
--You all decide to huddle into a patch of grass near Dragon in an attempt to ambush the other team. Someone with Oracle's Elixir active discovered a ward inside the same patch of grass, and you all attack to destroy it. A few more seconds pass, when suddenly the enemy Jarvan IV goes DEMACIA!!!! on your ass and then all hell breaks loose as you and your team get AoE'd to death.
--After a pushing blitz down middle lane, the enemy team respawns in force, and you're forced to back off. But before you recall, your various members decide to steal jungle creeps from the other team. You recall in the grass at blue buff, when suddenly the other team jumps you and kills you.
