Runes
Lee Sin's kit makes him an extremely strong early game champion, though he has a tendency to fall off lategame. This makes him one of the best gankers in the game. This build features all the Hunter runes, which allow you to really scale off of successful ganks, as they'll reward you with different stat boosts after each kill. In red, Brutal is also a great choice, as it allows you to be early more dominant during the early game.
As for your keystone, Electrocute is automatically triggered by your default combo, making it far and away the best choice on this champion. This rune increases your earlygame power, making you a lethal threat during the laning phase.

Tips and tricks
In Wild Rift, Lee Sin can use Safeguard to dash without having to target a ward or an ally, making 'the InSec' feasible with just a bit of practice. Hit your target with a Sonic Wave, dash to them then get in front of them with a Safeguard, finally send them in the opposite direction with a Dragon's Rage.
Lee Sin's burst is entirely dependant on his Sonic Wave. Most times, it's a better to idea to get close to your enemy with a Safeguard dash, then hit them with a guaranteed Sonic Wave. Missing your Q will often lead to a failed gank, so it's better to not take the risk.
