Why Cant we see the Mastery Level of Enemy Players in the Load Screen?

It affects how you play.

Not sure but maybe its so you can't flame them for being mastery 5 but shit at the champion or something weird like that rito logic is weird

what would be the point of something like this? people can be absolute garbage at the champion and still have rank 5 just like there are people who are gods at certain champions even though they don't have said champion at rank 5

I'd like to see the player's current and past season League Rank on the loading screen profiles

I think it's partially so as to not set people on tilt before the game even starts.

It would be pretty easy to intimidate some players by just playing an entire team of Lv 5 Mastery Champs. At least flashing the Mastery Emote in game requires you to take a keystroke - even if you have it bound to something like T, it's enough of a break from most players usual hand positioning that they can be punished for BMing by the opponents.

Nothing wrong with mind games, but I imagine that Riot would rather you actively PLAY said mind games rather than just start out with one in the loading screen for essentially free.

Of course, I say that as people can show off their 5 Man Club Tag in the loading screen, so...

Same reason they won't let us see rank/ping anymore. To stop trolling, keep people from being intimidated etc. Not that it works

its because riot doesn't want you to see their horrible matchmaking system. that way you know your always stuck with nubs lvl 25 and under but you wont be able to see the diamond gold and platinum on the enemy team lmfao

idk but i like ur name ;3

Because people feelings get hurt.

idk i would like to see the mastery. but i know riot would never let it happen

same reason they do not show the enemy team borders.

same reason you can't see the borders around their champs

I don't think Riot wants "prioritize ganks on the lowest mastery enemy" to be a thing. And if that is what they're thinking, I agree.

being put against a mastery 7 could be an instant tilt factor for some people

looking up player statistics actually isn't a very good idea. if there was a site where i could only see whether or not the enemies (and only the enemies) were on a lose streak, i would use that before games. otherwise, it's best to just play the game. knowledge of matchups and gank potential will always be more useful than whether or not the enemy gnar is first timing. you should be able to abuse his countless mistakes whether or not you know that.

(edit) i saw this on the front page but apparently it's years old LMFAO fuckin necro

because the mastery can reflect how good someone is on that champ...

To prevent you from tilting in the Loading Screen from seeing half their Team is on mastery 6 Champs.

Like Ranks, it protects you from yourself
