^ OP thinks people don't fight for start-runes anymore.
Wait, what? Play with 5, carry to safelane bounty, 4 to enemy safelane bounty, contest. Hopefully your mid take theirs, give the offlane bounty to whoever wants it (offlane or supp, preferably since your mid goes to lane)
You've secured 300 gold advantage that way
Or at least, contest it lol. If it's impossible then back down to your own bounty
^oops enemy offlaner with pos 4 went to take your safe rune smoked and killed carry, other 3 took your offlane rune... gg end.
Yah Before 7.00 I saw lots of people Dieing over a Little Bounty rune less arguement over runes now witch is nice.
how is it not a good idea. people were fucking battling to the death over those rune spawns. they are now but not to the same extent, especially with shrines being active at minute 0
Yea tbh I didn't like this change. There's just less rune wars. And just less decision making at the start cuz there's 4 runes
Don't forget that rubick can lift enemy and put them on clift, so do magnus and its fail, pudge can hook from dire top rune
I know this is like a month old, but I steal runes minute 1 all the time, and a lots of minute 1 team fights ensue when I'm feeling especially frisky. Only time I don't even attempt it is when I see 3 or more people waiting at it and I give the old nope. Let mid and hard carry have your own runes, one more person to help secure each of them, and the last should be at least scouting an enemy rune if not out right attempting to steal it.

I dont think it was a good idea to give bounty runes to both sides so that they didnt quarrel over it at the start of the game (it was thus, wasn't it?). I mean some heroes (and players) still can get and insolent and go to snatch enemy rune AND kill someone in the process. I know it's such a petty issue BUT it really affects those easy-to-tilt jackassssses who write "gg we lost, great start" and go afk. Am I wrong?
