6 thru 7

I love the idea of rank 6 and 7 masteries. I absolutely love it! It takes more than just playing a champ a lot to earn the masteries. You actually have to be good at what it is you're doing to even qualify for them. It gives a little extra incentive to players to try their best in a competitive game.

However, it seems like the curve for grading is just too excessive in my opinion for S- let alone S and S+. I don't claim to always do well, but when I do, I manage some amazing plays and carry some seemingly impossible games...Not always, but it happens and I'm thinking "If this doesn't get me an S, nothing will."

Then I reach the post game. My team is congratulating me for a job well done, I get 1+ honors from my allies, but no S...Just another A, A+, or even an A-.

Then, after the long awaited S scores I've been trying to earn. I have to keep at it just to hope that I get a chest that has something worth the essence or pay just to say...Hey, look at me, I had a couple good games and then I gave Riot the cash moniez for a purple triangle.

That's probably my biggest complaint out of all of it. Is that once it's earned, it still isn't ours. We either have to work harder than those who pay for it or just fork over 10+ dollars and hope against hope that one of those chests will contain what we need.
