How does the system of Mastery works? Because I think is broken

Sêpt ·Oct 18, 2018·1 votes·1,087 views

So, I just finished a game where I'm sure as hell that I did almost perfectly and deserved an S at least but no, to my surprise is an A+ so how the hell does someone who is far ahead of the enemy team and their teammates with a 12/2/4 score and with 118 of farm doesn't get at least an S, what do exactly have to do, farm more? The heimerdinger didn't got one even if he was the best with farm, Jhin neither but the one who got an S was the Sona so I'm not particularly mad, just really confused because it seems that you only gain some because of the rng more than based in what do you do in the game.

Please can some kind heart can guide through this confusion [zombie-nunu-bummed]

Your CS is bad you should have around 200 at that point in the game.
You had 0 control wards purchased.
You had 9 more kills than Heim yet you lost to him in damage dealt to champions and total damage dealt.

tl;dr Mastery "Grades" is based on your overall performance (including your kills/deaths, CS score, kill participation, damage dealt, etc) on the champion, which includes your performances in previous games, and the performances of other players on the same champion and role.

From Riot's Champion Mastery Page:

Grades are awarded based on your overall performance in the role along with the champion you’re playing and, crucially, where you’re playing them.

It’s based on the champion and role that you just played in a game. So, for example, we look at Annie mid differently to Annie support. We take a series of performance metrics and compare how you do to all other players in your region in your champion/position combination. It is percentile driven - so earning a high score means you performed in the top x% of players on that champ in that position. The grade itself governs the point gains.

From Deep Terror Nami:

There are two key parts in the grading system:

They choose a series of metrics to evaluate your performances.

They compare your score with those metrics to the score of other people playing the same Champion/Role combination. Your grade corresponds to the % of players that did better than you.

Its Based Of Other Zeds So If You Play A Boosted Champ You Have To Be Actually Good With Wards/Kills/Deaths/etc To Get Your S So Play Something That Actually Requires Skill And Your Set Buddy
