Assassin Mastery

Pretty easy to understand, but what is the range on it? How close does an ally need to be for you to lose the bonus 1.5%?

I think it is a good mastery for top, because it is an island after all.

assassin mastery is absurdly useless and completely outclassed by biscuit

lets say you do 130 pre resist and 100 afterwards, you do an additional 1.5 damage

but a biscuit will recover like 35 more hp, meaning you have to harass like over 2k damage per pot for it to be worth it

even late game if your burst is 2k damage, its only 30 more damage, but 1 biscuit already covers the difference

it is just bad early and not so great late

So it's probably not worth using is it?

Comparing it too the other masteries on that level not really but there are a lot of variables to consider . When comparing it to the biscuit one you won't be buying pot that much late game but you'll end up being alone sometimes , say split pushing or so. Comparing it to the relic one you'll end up being alone quite often in the jungle but is giving up the extra buff time worth it ? But it is low on the tree that why they made it so weak

That is all good stuff to consider. Thanks for the input. I'll try it out but I didn't realize it was even a thing until about 5 minutes ago, so I will probably just end up sticking with biscuits.

It also increases damage against all enemies, including minions. Might be good if you are a resourceless solo laner.

I like it in midlane or on artillery mages and Karthus too.

Okay I will keep that in mind.

it'll always be active in a sololane(unless your jungler ganks) and while splitpushing. And in teamfights, sometimes diving the opposing backline will get you far enough from any teammates to use it.

It's more that 1.5% is pretty low, but well, other masteries of that tier don't give you much either, so in the end it probably makes little difference which one you take.
