Support mains and mastery level 6,7

With the new mastery tier 6 and 7 released can we talk about how insanely hard it is to get S rank on support champions?

to give an example i just played a game on braum and went 0/2/18 but that is only an A!

i just think that there are unrealistic requirements in the mastery system that supports cannot adhere to. the need to be "positive" is something that a support does not even want to be. if I'm 5/1/12 on thresh i messed up! that's a lot of gold out of the pockets of carries. With the mastery system already categorizing champions into roles why can we not get more role based scoring systems now that S rank is required to move up instead of 20 games of a+

...You do realize that support champs are the easiest to get S ranks on right?

It's not that hard. Your grade is based on how others do on the same champion in the same role, so you're not going to need carry scores when you're playing Thresh Supp, you're going to need the kind of scores a Thresh Supp gets.

The problem is that a lot of people think S is the average and simply doing well will reward it. S scores are the top. Improve your play on the champion and your grades will be better on average.

Insanely hard? Are we playing the same game?

Took me six tries before I got an S rank on my main, and got two S ranks in a row when playing support.

I actually agree with Avatar, if you die twice as a Soraka, it doesn't matter how many assists you get, you will not get that S. It should be very challenging to get an S but an Alistar that sets up a 20/0 Yasuo will always get a lower grade than the Yasuo.

its a simple as this if you die on support more then 1 time in a game you do not get s rank 95% of the time on front line tanky supports this can be really hard because your job in team fights will get you killed. im not saying its impossible im just saying it is disproportionate to every other roll
