Trivia
- Name of the Best Served Cold rune is a reference to the popular saying 'revenge is best served cold', i.e. should be performed late.
- Prior to Patch 2.0., Revenge also had another rune with a reference: Vengeance Is Mine, referring to the Bible, Romans 12:19, "Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”".
