It's funny how people blame riot for the masteries

When it's actuall their own damn fault. I feel no one read, maybe even has still not read, the masteries carefully when they were released. For the most part, you all just bandwagoned what was "OP", every mid laner had DFT, every top laner had Fervour. I remember at the time, I was laughed at for taking thunderlords, yet somehow we now have 8 to sometimes as many as all 10 players with it. The problem isn't the masteries, the problem is you. And this isn't solely related to the masteries. For the most part, I just play ranked with some arams now and then, and maybe the odd normal. Yesterday I played 2 poro Kings and 1 normal. The poro King had 2 AP MFs (both had FQC) in one game, the other had 1 lux and 1 MF. The normal had a Dr.Mundo. I was surprised at first, then just disappointed. You'd think after being the victim of a Mundo 1 man winning a RANKED game, you'd be put off playing it in a normal game. You'd think after seeing MF and Lux in nearly EVERY PORO KING GAME, they'd get sick of it. But the truth is you lot don't give a damn. I wonder if the next champion was deliberately made to right click someone once and they die, with the condition that on buying it you sell your soul, how many people would use it?

You seem to be ignoring the fact that Deathfire Touch and Fervor of Battle were nerfed while Thunderlord's Decree and Precision were buffed.

Also, the fact that Thunderlord's Decree was bugged when it was first released.

that's the point. They only play something because it's "OP", then they jump ship immediately, then wonder why everyone has the same mastery

This is the real reason. Most of the keystones were nerfed while Thunderlord's was one of the only ones that was buffed.

I think next patch when most of the other ones get buffed and all the changes currently on the PBE for them, Thunderlord's will no longer be the best option for almost everyone.
