So much changed! Fewer runes because I removed quasi-duplicates, but the remaining are much cooler in my opinion! Also fixed issues with math leading to no rune triggers, added a **custom stat tracker** for each rune, and added **recommended builds and a random kit command.**

Some runes are placeholders as of right now. All else should work though
