In the ever-evolving landscape of League of Legends, strategic customization is key to gaining an edge — and nothing underscores this more than rune pages. These customizable loadouts define how champions perform in-game, influencing everything from early-game aggression to late-game scaling. But while every summoner starts with a couple of default pages, many soon find themselves craving more flexibility. So how exactly can you get more rune pages in League of Legends? Here’s a detailed breakdown for players looking to expand their rune arsenal.
Why More Rune Pages Matter
League of Legends allows players to select runes before each match, customizing stats and bonuses based on champion, role, and matchups. While the game offers a few preset options, serious players quickly realize that one size doesn’t fit all.
Having additional rune pages means:
- Faster champion select decisions in ranked and draft modes.
- Specialization for different champions or playstyles.
- Better adaptation against specific enemy compositions.
- Less stress — no need to adjust settings on the fly.
The Free Options
Before reaching for your wallet, it’s worth exploring what Riot Games already provides:
- Preset Rune Pages: Every account comes with five default rune pages (Precision, Domination, Sorcery, Resolve, and Inspiration) which are uneditable but functional for casual play.
- Two Editable Pages: These allow full customization and are available for free from level 10 onward.
While these can be sufficient for newer players, most active summoners find themselves wanting more.

How to Unlock More Rune Pages
There are two primary ways to get additional rune pages: with Blue Essence or RP (Riot Points).
Using Blue Essence (BE)
- Cost: 6,300 BE per page
- Where: Go to the Store > Accessories > Rune Pages, then select the Blue Essence purchase option.
- Note: Blue Essence is earned passively by playing games, leveling up, and disenchanting champion shards. While this method is free, it can be slow — especially if you’re also unlocking champions.
Using Riot Points (RP)
- Cost: 590 RP per page, or 4-page bundle for 1,630 RP
- Where: Same store location as above.
- RP is bought with real money, making this the fastest (but not cheapest) method.
Are Extra Rune Pages Worth It?
The answer depends on your playstyle:
- Competitive Players / Ranked Grinders: Absolutely. More pages mean less time fiddling with setups and more time focusing on strategy.
- Casual Players: Not essential, but convenient.
- One-Tricks or Mainers: If you play just a few champions, two editable pages may be enough.
Pro Tip: Use the Client’s Copy Feature
Even if you don’t buy more pages, you can quickly copy, modify, and save rune setups right in champion select. This doesn’t save between games, but it gives some flexibility without requiring extra purchases.
Final Thoughts
Rune pages are an underrated but powerful tool in League of Legends. Whether you choose to grind Blue Essence or spend RP, unlocking more can streamline your experience and boost your performance — especially in high-stakes ranked games.
In a game where every second and stat matters, an optimized rune page could be the difference between victory and defeat. So if you’re ready to elevate your game, it might be time to expand your rune book.
