Mastery 8

I have realized that there has been many players with mastery 6 & 7 since the system came, It has really shown that the players have spent time on their champion and learned how to play them with excellent skill, but I don't think that's fully true for all. The requirements for them are fair but over time players just need a couple good games to get mastery 6 or 7 even though they might only be decent with the champion. I think making the requirements harder might be the way to go but adding a higher lvl mastery might be better, So i propose that there should be a mastery 8. These are my ideas on the subject:

Mastery 8

Appearance: the crystal would be a shape of a circle and have the color of white.

Requirements:

  1. The Champion has to have already a mastery lvl of 7.
  2. Receive 4 or 5 S+ to obtain tokens.
  3. Unlock with 4 tokens and 800 blue essence, champion permanent or champion shard

This is pretty much similar to the previous requirements but a bit harder to get. I think it would be cool to have something like this and giving players who have already gotten mastery 7 to strive for better performance and have another goal to achieve in each game. Also i think players should may be receive some type of reward such as a special icon, border, ward skin or skin shard/permanent of the champion.

Basically, me playing KAtarina support and refusing to teamplay AGAIN, so I can die max 2 times and get ~15 kills to get a 100% S+... I'm already annoyed at how dull it is to farm S/S+ for level 6/7... I dont actually wanna become that one asshole who farms for level 8 and ruins the game for the rest cuz of it... I mean I still play Kat support, but I dont wanna try hard for S+, as I said... it ruins the game for my teammates, just so I can have a shinier icon.

If the problem with the matter is the fact that you think Masteries are too easy to get, shouldn't they just make them harder to get instead of shoving in a new mastery that can be obtained by nearly the exact same method as all the others? I feel as though Mastery 8 is putting a band-aid on the problem, instead of actually just trying to go and cure the wound.

That isn't to say it's not a good idea. Done right, it could make sense, but as I said, it feels more like a band-aid than a permanent solution.

I am sure they will add mastery 8 in the future. I want the reward to be a customizable mastery icon with customized graphics, animation, and sound within a sizable choice of presets.

I think if they were to add another mastery level there should be three unique quests based on the champion and role, for example get 3 pentakills, steal 3 dragons/barons and interrupt 2 enemy movement abilities at the same time might be the three quests for an Azir, make them hard and specific, but very rewarding and honorable

If there is going to be mastery level 8, it definitely not should be achieved by getting tokens for s+ games. Let it have the requirement of having mastery 7 and then create another system to get the next level.

Like already pointed out by Kitty Katarina, that would just encourage even more players to play stuff like Ivern top lane and stuff like that, hoping to get carried by their team so they can leech the s+....
