Also I've been hearing about "Tankturne" for a while now, what's the deal about building Noct super tank?
Imagine you don't have runes for a second.
Apen will be better if you have at least 45 ad + 1 ad for every .6 armour they have or more.
Otherwise ad runes will be better.
For example, lvl 1 ashe has 46.3 ad
(46.3-45)*.6=.78
Since your opponents don't have .78 armour, ad is better in this case.
If she starts with a doran's blade,
(56.3-45)*6=6.78
ad runes are still better.
But, when ashe is lvl 10 and has 2 bf swords,
base ad: 74.8
ad from bf swords: 90
total ad: 164.8
(164.8-45)*.6=71.88
If your opponent has less than 71.88 armour then apen is better.
In short, the more ad you build, the better apen is, and the more armour your opponent has the better ad is.
Sorry, I'm bad at explaining through text.
