Mastery 6 and 7 were almost great. But they're ridiculous as hell, and here's why.

Honestly, I was really excited for mastery 6 and 7, and I think that making players get S ranks is a great idea. It solves the whole "you just have to lose 500 games to get mastery 5 on a champion" arguement. I also think including blue essence was a clever way to utilize blue essence for people who have all the champs already.

My problem is that you need to get blue essence in the first place which is fucking impossible. I decided to bite the bullet and buy some hex tech chests so I could just get some champion shards to disenchant. I bought about 10 of them. Out off all of those chests, I got 1 single champion shard, worth 300 blue essence.

One.

Are you kidding me? There has to be a better way than this. You have your individual skill thats needed to get you to mastery 6 and 7, but a huge factor is plane luck on getting enough champion shards, and judging from the chest situation that I just experienced that luck does not really work in your favor.

PLEASE fix this riot. Plz :|

From patch notes: http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/patch/patch-610-notes#patch-champion-mastery

Mastery Levels 6 and 7 better emphasize skill by requiring S grades from matchmade games. We’re emphasizing a performance requirement alongside a dedication component (the time needed to unlock free chests or earn IP for champ shards or permanent loot) to build on the original system’s blend of skill and participation. Keep an eye out for a larger announcement soon! ”

MORE MASTERFUL MASTERY : Earn new mastery badge emotes, loading screen border flags, and announcement banner upgrades for each level

DING : Earn Mastery 6 tokens for S-, S, and S+ games with champs that are Mastery Level 5

DING DING : Earn Mastery 7 tokens for S and S+ games with champs that are Mastery Level 6

HEXTECH MASTERY : Combine Mastery tokens for a specific champ with that champ’s crafting shard, permanent loot, or blue essence to unlock their next mastery level

**ZOINKS! : We’re adding a new mystery champ item to the store for RP or IP in a future patch that’ll help offset the RNG of finding champ shards and permanents in chests **

. . .

That last line may interest you and the tons of other people bringing this up.
