What about a utility mastery that increase the duration for getting an assist on a kill?

Even though it's already long enough.

Not sure the exact numbers, but I remember getting assists almost 10 seconds later after Lulu's W has worn off.

Nah.

Actually have abilities like Sona's Q and E buff grant assists would be enough for me.

They do in my experience.

10 seconds is the current duration. It would be a noob trap basically and extremely situational (possibly cheesy.)

If it increased gold gained from assisting, that might be another thing (needs to be deep in the tree, and it's questionable if that'd even be balanced, some supports only get a few assist, while others can be getting assists in 80% of the kills due to kit differences.)

Situational indeed, I can see it as an option for certain immobile supports while you have playing with an high mobile team. I have seen many times you did all the work with an immobile support only to see your hyper mobile LB get away with the kill without getting an assist for it. Because it's not that strong of a mastery it can be pointed pretty early in the tree. Mayne even tier 1 if you think about it. Adding additionaly gold rewards to it could be helpfull & it would allow to place it higher in the tree.

Masteries where always situational. It's not like you don't see any high elo player adjust their masteries before every game no?
