Large rune re-balance hitting League of Legends soon

Riot has announced that they will be rebalancing the strength of all runes and offering a 30% rune sale to compensate.

Since very early in competitive League of Legends history, the "optimal" rune pages for the majority of champions has been stagnant.  The most apparent offenders were Armor seals and Magic Resist glyphs, whicch were almost never swapped out due to the sheer strength of the same runes in comparison to other choices.

Now, Riot looks to open up the possibilities of specs for champions by offering a broader array of efficient builds. Runes such as cooldown reduction have become very, very powerful.  Below is a list of changes listed by Riot.
