It's a little important to note that you couldn't spend real money for runes. They were purchased via IP and it was the ability to buy champions with money and thus not needing to buying them with your IP leaving it all left over for runes is how it was pay to win. Anecdotally, I was in high school during this phase of the game and had no issues with getting runes I needed. Be it flat pen, hp regen, flat ad/ap, it was all pretty easy to get. You weren't getting it in a day but if you did your daily wins and play a few games a day, it was no issue.

Even worse, you can't edit them in champ select, so the best thing to do (depending on your role) is to have an AD rune page, an AP rune page, and a tank rune page.

As a mainly ARAM player there is a huge list of skins that straight up improve your winrate, especially on champions like Nidalee it makes it near impossible to see the spears if you don't focus on the Nidalee or spear, because they blend in with the background. And there are many skills like that, including Viktor ult, Syndra balls and many other things that become near invisible if you didn't already focus on them.

I play aram with friends occasionally and I just groan when I see a skin on the other team that has light blue particle effects (like Death Blossom Elise for example) because I have such a hard time seeing those effects on top of the blue of the Howling Abyss (seriously Elise's spiders from her human form W are borderline invisible to me even though they flash different colours.)

This does not include Blitz Space Groove skin (idk if its already fixed), there is some key frame on the animation of the taunt looks like he is going to hook so if you have fast reaction time you preemptive flash or use your dash spell. Like in a scenario that blitz has a clear LOS and press W to close gap, the next thing you react like you are immobile champ adc is to flash if you see that animation, but it is only a taunt and when the flash was expended, it is easier to land the hook.

There used to be a bug with Twitch where if you were invisible and you walked into someone's vision range while they were in the bush, the vision icon would appear over your head and tell you that someone could see you because you were too close. I'm pretty sure they fixed it though because a while ago I was playing an aram and used my Q with Twitch thinking I would check the bush by walking up to it and seeing if I got the vision icon over my character. As I walked closer to the bush I didn't get a vision icon over my character at all and assumed the bush was safe, but once I entered the bush I found out that how very wrong I was and I was quickly helped back to the fountain, so that I could buy items.

Some Draven skins are a double-edged sword (or axe for that matter). The ground effects for the axe landing position sometimes blends too well with certain colors of the rift. This makes it harder for the opponent to see where Draven is navigation. One may argue it also makes it harder for the Draven to see where the axes go but a good Draven always knows as he has the agency to influence the exact landing position unless he is not moving when a spinning axe is hitting the target. Vice versa there are Draven skins which make the landing animation much more visible. Ahri has at least one skin (was it Coven Ahri?) whose charm animation is not a pink heart but very similar to her orb.
