Blue Essence for Mastery Levels
Since we no longer get anything but xp from matches, meaning blue essence is more scarce then IP ever was, can we remove the need for blue essence to get our mastery levels? 3250 blue essence for a level six mastery just feels like a punch in the gut when you're trying to unlock more champions, and I'm spending money every few weeks on RP (when I get OT at work typically.)
With the old system, we needed more to do with blue essence, especially once you had every champion, but with the current system this isn't an issue. If anything, make it an orange essence requirement, since its effectively a cosmetic anyway. I would much rather be making the decision of "hmm, do I want that star guardian lulu skin, or do I want my level seven mastery emote for taric?" then, "hmm, do I want to buy lulu and expand my champion pool, or do I want to unlock the mastery emote i've earned?"
