A very happy summoner. Thank you, RIOT!!!
Not really a question. I just wanted to thank all the staff for this game, and for what you all do for our enjoyment of it! I started playing the week Jhin was released, and this Ranked season, I began to play better, understanding how to support teams more effectively, and climbed in divisions for the first time this season, in solo queue!!! It tells me I'm learning, and beginning to make good, right decisions, and execute more consistently, and it makes me feel awesome!!!
I also love the new Mastery system, and I know that was probably the biggest project for you all this year, in terms of game development. Every choice has clear benefits, and was clearly designed with a purpose. I can tell a lot of thought went into designing masteries that could have great, useful benefits to every class and role, :) My first game with the new mastery system, I looked through the choices and benefits, and put a page together for AP healer supports. (2 of my favourite champs to play are Bard and Nami. Also Morgana). On my FIRST game with the new Mastery system, I got my 2nd S level 7 token for Nami!!! And I find that the masteries themselves are now more actively visible in the game SOOOOOO cool!!!
(If anyone is interested, I went with a main tree of Sorcery with :
Summon Aery Manaflow Band Transcendence Gathering Storm
With Domination as my secondary partial tree :
Eyeball collection (because I'm a support, and wards are things we use) and Ravenous Hunter (for the healing benefits. SOOOO useful for Nami, both for the healing and because it rewards using Nami's Ebb and Flow not just to heal, but to poke enemies down. It rewards smart, calculated aggressive play, by design!! AND I LOVE IT!!!!
Thank you, for all the work you put into this game for us, all the time. And the thoughtfulness and commitment with which the new masteries were created, again for player's enjoyment and benefit!!!
An appreciative, very happy summoner!!!
