I remember that when the champion mastery system was released I was so excited. I couldn't wait to get all my favorite champions to level 5 and show off my pride for that champion. But now it seems many people have reached level 5, so it isn't nearly as special anymore...

I remember a 6 & 7 being mentioned but it seemed to just die and was forgotten about...

Are 6 & 7 still going to be released? Or are they just going to keep it at 5 only...?

PLEASE RITO WE WANT 6 & 7

Kind of obvious everyone else is going to hit Mastery 5 anyway.

6&7 was announced not even a full week ago. Chill out.

The reason they are taking longer to release these is because they actually want to come up with a reword for those that hit rank 6 or 7.

More than 6 and 7 are going to be released, however they want additional stuff to go with some of the higher ranks. Maybe they had a bug with an animation somewhere, or maybe they are still working on the details of an extra reward for one of these. Either way they haven't said anything about these ranks being canceled, so we just have to wait.

They should make the rewards alternate splash arts imo

I mean, when are they gonna mean anything at any point? You get more points for playing in a party or winning than you do for performing well, and its still a mystery how it functions because I've gotten S's when I do awful and end up like 1/5/10 with 50 cs as a top laner, no turret kills, generally worthless.

Its just a buncha nonsense.

i think there working on rewards for them it would kinda be lame to get the teir then get rewards like months later

... Who cares? Mastery levels are about the most worthless "feature" I've ever seen in a game.

I imagine at this point it's just for achievement whore types.

It wasn't nearly as special when it was shown to be a "I've played this champion in some games" symbol. It didn't mark anything special in the first place, especially not a player as some special snowflake.

I want 6 & 7 because I like the colors more.

They need to add more to champion mastery than just pretty colors though.

oh WOW I just found out about this

I do know that Riot is collecting surveys from people about what their opinions on rewards. And I've seen they're thinking about something like a special particle effects or a special skin for the champ. I forgot where do I read this tho, sorry guys no links :(

But then how many mastery points do you need to get to level 7? that must be a lot of games played...

I feel like the chroma skins could have been an excellent reward for tier 7, kinda like how it is in HOTS (the one thing they did right)

But I have over 100k mastery points on my waifu Elise they'd probably have to add it up to 10 for it to still be relevant to me :(

Also: "We expect players to take 15-30 games to level through the first set of levels (1 through 5). We’ll be unlocking additional levels later."

Have a ton of mastery points on Poppy and I'd be happy to just automatically have a higher rank in the thing :)

6 and 7? I want 8 9 10 and higher. Should go up to 1 million champion mastery points IMO
