Keystone mastery that doesn't require an enemy champion.

So, there is a lot of talk about people wanting masteries removed, especially keystones, because they make or break certain champions. That's a long discussion that I don't want to open up here, but seeing all the keystone masteries that exist right now, I've realized that there isn't a single one, apart from Bond of Stone and Windspeaker's Blessing that works against monsters, and even those have a very small part that actually does. I think that Warlord's Bloodlust also benefits from minions, but that's about it.

I really think that there should be some sort of keystone mastery that interacts with minions / monsters. Kind of like the old CoC, that granted max HP whenever you killed a monster or cannon minion. Now, I don't want one that becomes a MUST HAVE for like every jungler in the game, but I believe that there can be at least one mastery that can work well on let's say junglers, but is not a must have. Even when the +300 HP one was out, I still played Elise with TLD, because I liked the extra damage and snowball potential it offered, so it wasn't as straightforward.

What about, let's say, a mastery that grants damage reduction or amplification for a short period of time after you kill a minion or monster? Or maybe increased movement speed? Or, after killing a minion or monster, your next AA deals increased damage (kind of like the old Serrated Dirk)?

I believe there are some ideas out there, but generally, I believe there should be at least one keystone mastery that doesn't require an enemy champion to work.

i think the reason a large amount of them require an enemy or even an allied unit is because Riot wants to promote interacting with the actual other players in the game.

SotA was just inf of a free stats for plying the game, keystone, and Riot wasn't satisfied with that, a sit became more of a statcheck item as opposed to being something that promoted you doing something with other people.
