Masteries

OlafRagnarson·Nov 11, 2015·6 votes·595 views

I'm sorry, but I think the new mastery system sucks. Basically it ensures much less variety of masteries. You can't have more than 18 in any one area, and the way it works out means that many many champions are all going to be using the exact same set up. That is pretty boring. Also, the final mastery in each category does crazy things. Its hard to calculate how that will play into the game. I am opposed to a mastery adding a dramatic ability...who was asking for this? What in the game suggested we needed this?

on the contrary I found that I created more mastery pages to cover the subtle differences of champions. before I could have survived with 1 mastery page for my ADC's tho I had 2 and I literally had only 1 mastery page for my sups. but I just created 5 pages for each role, and each one has a specific champ in mind, and each is different... and I'm pretty sure I'll find more variations later.... I'm kind of tempted to clear most or all of my masteries and just filling (and refilling) a page each game.

Well considering that Riots intention was to reduce the number of mastery pages people needed, I doubt your experience represents most.

I honestly agree with you. Sure they will change some stuff over time. But what really ticked me off was the 5% cdr in the offensive mastery tree. Its no longer part of what is now the "offensive" tree. I would normally start the game with 10% cdr. Cant do that anymore unless I put in points in useless masteries or give up other runes. Riot needs to rethink some of these rune choices.

my god yes... it just shouldn't have happened like this. Removing and replacing without offering something of equal or greater value in the same tree. Or putting them in an entirely different tree that you cant use. Nerfing feast but also making you choose between that or double edge when you used to otherwise roll with both just fine.

I havent wanted to play since this update and im afraid i may just fade out of ever wanting to play again. Soon as Overwatch is released i think ill drop league all together for all this. Im not against change but this kind of change isn't for the better.
