Why not give portraits as profile icons for champion mastery

Visigoth··255 votes·5,318 views

You know, these Ahri DrMundo Poppy Ziggs Vayne. No reason not to give someone that for champion level 5. Just a nice little prize for the grind, and a way to show off your favorite champion.

And it'd be even cooler if we also got ones for any skins we owned, too. Although they would require a little more effort (as opposed to using the normal portraits which every champ already has).

id say maybe for lvl 6 or 10 when they make it. but lvl 5 just requires 15 games-ish. not enough devotion tbh.

edit: why is this downvoted. im talking mastery levels... and 50k, 100k or 200k would be the marker id put icons at or sumthnm of the sort.

I thought he meant Level 5 Champion Mastery? Not summoner level

I'm pretty sure that's what Deathacures had in mind. But champion mastery doesn't have to end at level 5. As far as I know, 7 levels are planned, and Riot can always add some if they want.

15 won games. Around 60-70 lost games. About 20-30 games with a 50% win rate.

Not even just that. I'm 15-5 on Malphite and still level 3

Aeolian Melodies2 votes

it also depends on your KDA and your kill participation

Mecha MaIphite4 votes

Not as much as winning or losing. If you win, you're practically guarantee'd at least around 1000 points.

Only actually played one game since mastery came out, was 870 for a 30-minute A-rank win.

Taarki3 votes

I played a 50+ minute game and got A- rank and got 1.7k Mastery points. I think time and win/lose are the BIGGEST factors.

IcyPepper6 votes

I'm sure that Champion Mastery goes way beyond KDA tho.

KDA is probably one of fifteen factors or something. Not as a big deal as people make it out to be.

ArkenStorm1 votes

yeah, also farm and objective control

Whenever I'm in a game as nami and I help a lot out with objectives and team stuff and I'm dying a lot, I always end up getting a B- or lower ;*(.

I hit lv 5 masteries with Diana in ~10 games. It really depends on how well you do.

Lol... Whatever you need to tell yourself man. I'm unranked, Silver last season. I play silverish with most champs/roles, but my Diana play is really good even before she was FOTM.

NOt the point, screenshot of 2500+ points in 1 match plx.

I didn't keep track of it, didn't even think it was such a big deal.

It primarily depends on the length of the match (the longer the match, the more champion mastery points you'll earn), you're KDA ratio, turrets destroyed, etc. Pretty much all of your stats along with a victory/loss, and the time the match lasted will count towards how many champion mastery points you earn; that determines how fast you level up your champion.

A Miss Fortune4 votes

I can actually agree with you, I played Evelynn for probably one night and basically got level 4 instantly. I've probably played less around 20 - 30 real games with her, if not less and I don't think It's appropriate to say I've "mastered" the champion and deserve anything for it.

However I've played Miss Fortune for so long and probably have hundreds of games played with her, currently I have 107,660 points with her and have one of the most positively upvoted guides on Miss Fortune, I've mained her and I know every aspect of the champion and I'd feel confident to say that I have mastered her and I think at this point it would be nice to get something like a portrait of Miss Fortune as my icon.

I Am Luxanna3 votes

well yeah. lvl 6 would prolly be at 50k considering that lvl 5 is at 20k. and id love it for my lux as well. :P

sp4411 votes

Yeah, 15-ish games assuming you're winning, playing for 40 minutes, and scoring an S rank every time.

I Am Luxanna1 votes

didnt say it was practical, just possible. Faker could do it (maybe).

sp4411 votes

Well, if I was God I could just wave my hands and beat the game with an SSS+ earning me 9001^100 mastery points, but I'm not, we're talking on mortal terms here.

I Am Luxanna1 votes

faker is god.... thats why i said he could do it. but still. its only like 25 games. u cant even do every lane matchup in 25 games.

Wumachine1 votes

all these people downvoting because they just don't want to actually work for the rewards

I Am Luxanna1 votes

prolly. if this was added in season one id have at least 40k on each champ except teemo and tahm

Crossette1 votes

15 games is like mid level 3 or 4, if you win them all. Don't know what you're smoking, but it took me like 40 games to max out Bard even though a majority of those were wins.

I Am Luxanna1 votes

its possible if u get S's.

Riot would prefer that you pay for your summoner icons.

This was suggested a long time ago, and they said they'd take it into consideration along with Chroma's as rewards for champion mastery as well.

I can almost guarantee they'll do it anyway. It was suggested on the Q & A for champion mastery a long time ago and a Rioter said it was a very likely reward for the future.

Blue Moon Wolf3 votes

they could also give banners with the Icon, the full picture in the banner background and some quote as an autograph like this:

"to my #1 fan, may the might of Demacia lead you to victory" -Garen

What's that thing in the middle? Poppy

InvalidGaming2 votes

I think that the reason that they made it so that enemy players cannot see your champion mastery banner during loading screen and mastery emote in-game is to stop people from being afraid or nervous about a champion main in both ranked and normals. If they let you use a champion icon unlocked via champion mastery, everyone would know you were experienced with that champion during loading screen on the enemy team. Just saying. :)

CatAndBookTails2 votes

We have skins for that :^)

FirexSaber1 votes

Well they said the same thing for borders for ranked, but they do let you have the icon for where you ranked last season. So it's pretty much the same concept.
