@Riot why would you remove this. It was so much fun to use it after outplaying someone or just to tilt players in general. Bring it back please.

They didn't remove it, it's a bug. RiotBok posted on a thread saying its a bug not intentional

PLEASE upvote this and spread the knowledge instead of speculation and outrage.

I remember everytime somebody BMed me with it, I'd just come back and destroy them with a scary amount of aggression that seems misplaced but is in the perfect time to cause them to fail to take proper action in time. I usually then just snowball the game and flash my mastery icon once later on.

That sounds evil. I like it.

A mid Lucian flashed is mastery Icon because he got a double kill early against me and Lux because Zac showed up for the counter gank

I was Evelynn.

My other lanes were doing okay

I made sure that Lucian ended 3-10.

It was also nice how you could use it after you died.

This is a Singed nerf.

Singed, probably the greatest champion in existence. You buff him by binding his /l to his E and then you nerf him by removing the mastery 5 emote. Fascinating.

charcharmunro2 votes

How else could he masterfully display how he avoided getting hit by any of your abilities and made you waste your Flash to try and stop him from getting executed?

I remember using it whenever I died, just for the irony.

Reminder that Treeline and ARAM, both of which are permanent game modes, still don't have Champ Mastery. Riot decided that temporary Rotating Game Modes, typically only available one weekend per month, somehow deserved Champ Mastery more than ranked TT.

Yeah that always seemed really weird to me. I'm level 4 Shaco mastery just from playing him on URF and Hexakill.

Go try it yourself.

Why did I get so many downvotes?

Supreme Senpai6910 votes

Because you said "source" i think. Maybe people think you're lazy for not trying it yourself, or maybe people think you're calling OP a liar. I don't pretend to understand what downvote drones think. I just upvote their victims and move on.

So you don't have another unreportable way to be toxic.

i.e. ping spamming, mastery/emote spam,saying "?" whenever an opponent dies.

RocketRelm7 votes

I kind of feel like a small, very small pinch of 'trash talk' is okay and even healthy for the game. It just has to stay very minor, and entirely game related (Ie, no calling somebody a "Nr rd f****t" or "you should get cancer", those are just objectively wrong).

DexterousGecko3 votes

I don't think having your mastery emote tied to the same key as your skills so it spams the entire game is healthy for anyone, it's just annoying.

tidegate3 votes

No one uses it like this, everyone who uses it spams. Everyone else doesn't use it. I don't think it should be taken out but maybe a cap like pings?

Steel Blossom8 votes

Why do you need to BM? I don't get it. Can't you just win and move on? It's people like you that cause a toxic community, and it's also people like you who piss off the wrong people on the streets of New York and get a bullet put into your skull.

I feel as though popping mastery is a lot more healthy than spam laughing/taunting... Sure you can mute them, but still, I don't think popping mastery is unhealthy. If you make a good outplay and pop mastery, yeah sure, that's fine.

It's the people that pop it every 10 seconds that is annoying. Also much better than players insulting each other. Haven't seen a player rage from popping mastery yet, so I don't think it has been a problem.

TL:DR - Would much rather have someone pop mastery instead of dancing/laughing on my corpse. Except an Udyr popping mastery then running away at mach 10. That tilts me...

Steel Blossom5 votes

Popping anything to BM an opponent is childish to me, and that kind of behavior in real life can get you into physical danger.

Tilted To Wood V11 votes

I feel it's rather deserving if you make a good outplay. Also, I'm not sure how popping mastery in game correlates to real life. I can totally throw a giant pair of golden wings above my head just by pulling it out of my ass in real life. I mean, running up to someone. killing them, then throwing up mastery is a totally logical thing to do in real life, right? No. It's a game.

Toxic are those people that rage at other players for feeding, stealing cs, and altogether being an asshole. Also, because it is childish to you, does that necessarily mean that it is childish to everyone else? Does everyone need to adopt your opinion? No.

Same goes for me, I won't force anyone to have my opinions, but I will state them, along with valid points.

Also, I am just going to assume that a fair portion of the player base are children. I could be wrong, just an assumption... Children being 17 or younger, depending on where you live of course.

And if you get pissed off by these simple acts of pleasure, obviously you are one those violent people in New York that would put a bullet in someones skull. I mean, it's a game. IT's A GAME! You are meant to have fun! Why ruin it for your team by getting angry?

We play these games to enjoy ourselves. If someone gets angry by getting killed with a little BM as a side dish, please, go play a single player game, or just take a break. You will find these people everywhere you go...

Sorry about wall of text, just stating an opinion that I believe others may understand/accept.

Now onto another topic: Who is enjoying the new Mage update :D ! Gotta love it when certain mages will be perma-banned for a while XD

P.S. Please read the WHOLE post if you are gonna post against me... Rude to read half a line then get angry and post.

You say toxicity, everyone else says healthy and funny competition. Bming isn't toxic when it's done to a minimal amount, and the mastery spam was always the right amount of bm imo.

Steel Blossom3 votes

BM isn't toxic. It's just annoying and childish. What I was saying that BMing provokes toxic responses.

devdev4631 votes

It's not childish, it's humorous. It provokes humorous responses. When is the last time someone responded to a ? In all chat with anything that wasn't another ? after they killed that person. Never, because it's fun to get revenge.

Steel Blossom3 votes

If you don't find BMing annoying or childish, then we'll just have to agree to disagree.

It was most likely removed because they're implementing Mastery Rank 6 and 7 in the next patch.

They could remove it when those masteries come out.

They could have. But maybe they are programming the 6 and 7 based on the absence of the rank 5 emote. You nevery what they could be doing when it comes to programming code. Even the slightest error can cause bizarre issues, so maybe that's why 5 is being removed now.

No I'm pretty sure it's just a bug

Simple Moon6 votes

I don't use it for BM I use it for when I screw up a play and die and it comes out of my dead body. Hilarious. Everytime.

TallyZrg6 votes

Doubt the mastery 5 emote being gone is intentional. Most likely a bug.

Takatsuki Yayoi4 votes

They already said on the forums earlier that it's a bug that they're looking in to iirc

ImmortalBloodCY4 votes

Its bugged.

Critmaster Garen4 votes

it was also funny, when you completely fucked up a play and did the emote from your corpse.

MetalGearTeemu4 votes

Mastery 5 was what you spammed after you utterly fucked up a play.

Virgin Ray3 votes

There are plenty other ways to BM, by emotes and mastery emotes. Removing this will solve nothing at all riot.

I don't think the patch notes mentioned anything about this, so it's just a bug.

Just Blame Jenny2 votes

The best play I ever made as Thresh :

Q'd toward enemy under tower. Missed. Flashed in. Flayed. Missed. Boxed. Caught no one. Tossed lantern. Baited ally in, promptly died. Ally died right after. Flashed mastery badge.

Doofs1 votes

Wait, so this isn't a bug?! THEY JUST FLAT OUT REMOVED IT?! Dying from an outplay and then flashing your champion mastery is literally the funniest shit you can do. Fuck dude, I thought it was a bug.

How am I supposed to play Singed now!?

it's confirmed a bug.
