Hello and today I would like to discuss my ideas with the fellow League of Legends community. My idea is to receive extra rewards when earning Mastery's 8, 9 and 10.

I understand that these goals do need to be tweaked a little so please, If you have any suggestions leave a comment and please vote in the poll below.


How to reach Mastery Level 8?

In order to reach Mastery Level 8, you must have the following requirements;

75,000 Mastery Points or more 4 S/S+ Mastery Tokens 4500 Blue Essence -OR- 1 Champion Shard -OR- Permanent.

You must be Mastery Level 7 to advance to Mastery Level 8.

Rewards for Mastery 8:

Earn new mastery badge emote, loading screen border flag, and announcement banner.

NEW: Earn an exclusive Mastery Icon for that champion.

(Note: This Icon cannot be bought with RP/BE.)


**How to reach Mastery Level 9: **

In order to reach Mastery Level 9, you must have the following requirements;

150,000 Mastery Points or more 5 S/S+ Mastery Tokens ** 5100 Blue Essence -OR- 1 Champion Shard -OR- Permanent.**

You must be Mastery Level 8 to advance to Mastery Level 9.

Rewards for Mastery 9:

Earn new mastery badge emote, loading screen border flag, and announcement banner.

NEW: Earn an exclusive Mastery Ward for that champion.

(Note: This Ward cannot be bought with RP/BE.)


How to reach Mastery Level 10: (Max Level)

In order to reach Mastery Level 10, you must have the following requirements;

300,000 Mastery Points or more 6 S+ Mastery Tokens (Note: Not S, only S+) 5700 Blue Essence -OR- 1 Champion Shard -OR- Permanent.

You must be Mastery Level 9 to advance to Mastery Level 10.

Rewards for Mastery 10:

Earn new mastery badge emote, loading screen border flag, and announcement banner.

**NEW: Earn an exclusive Mastery Skin for that champion. **

(Note: This Skin cannot be bought with RP.)


EDITS/UPDATES:

March 13th, 2017:

UPDATE: I understand that this is A LOT of stuff. I did see some good suggestions like maybe only 1 reward at level 10 and you get skin + icon, which is way more reasonable.

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!


May 18th, 2017:

UPDATE: Removed Chorma-Packs, moved Mastery Icon to Level 9. I agree that this was a "little" too much. For level 8 you just win the normal rewards; mastery badge emote, loading screen border flag, and announcement banner.

UPDATE 2: Decreased mastery points on level 8 to 75,000, level 9 to 150,000, level 10 to 300,000.


February 19th, 2018:

UPDATE: Added Exclusive Mastery Wards to Level 9 and switched Mastery Icons from Level 9 to Level 8.

UPDATE 2: Forgot to change BE values since IP was replaced with BE. New values are more corresponding with mastery's 6 and 7.

Might as well delete this thread with the announcement of Eternals. Riot decided to take a different and questionable approach. Wish this idea was considered, don't like Eternals at all.

Making a skin for every champ that is unique might be big business

Getting 3 S or S+ on Kindred was fun and challenging but A NEW SKIN for KIndred then COUNT ME in, will reach lvl 10 mastery on her!

I really like your idea!! :D I just think it would be hard for riot to make a special skin for each champion don't you think? Maybe a special mastery border would be good?

Randomonium10/25/2016, 10:15:31 AM5 votes

Love the idea but it seems to make more sense to have the exclusive skin be a mastery reward for level 9 and then have level 10 be a chroma pack for that exclusive skin rather than a chroma pack for some other skin.

400k doesnt seem like the right number for level 10 I think that it should be 500k, it would make a lot more sense.DravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDravenDraven

I've recently hit 400k mastery points on katarina and i have the level 7 mastery emote already, but that does not make me feel special because everyone can go into a normal game or a game against bots and get an easy S. Earning the level 7 emote in no time. Riots idea seems fair - Only the best mains get their level 10 emotes.

A skin for every champ.... a chroma for every champ..... you realize how fucking insane that is....

JUDGE REKTON9/28/2016, 4:51:00 AM3 votes

lvl 10 should be 1.000.000 champion points! with as reward: an icon and a skin with a adjustable colors scheme!

just more mastery lvs and the requirements are good, lv 10 should be 500k and lv 9 250k , no extra skin just the "achievement"

Affordable Acc1/29/2017, 11:09:05 AM3 votes

Hey i see a lot of comment complaining about the number of mastery points required, but... No one HAS to do it ! It's just some kind kind of rewards for OTPs, and nothing you're forced to aim for. Just ignore it if you think you'll never get 400k points ^^ (though you can still aim for mastery 7, 8 and maybe 9 ^^)

maybe just no rewards until 10 and have an icon

making a mastery skin for every champ would require years of work from the skins team.

Lyndris3/10/2017, 3:46:53 PM3 votes

Sounds good to me. They could easily make two special recolor options for the chroma packs. As for the skins the could have an over-arching theme for the Mastery skin line like the Project, BM, PP, Championship, and victory skin lines. And this comes just as I've found someone i really want to main Zyra

133 skins and about 5 x 133 chromas? Seems a bit too much

Çhåryzård4/26/2017, 2:47:08 PM3 votes

What if instead of a chroma you got a mastery loading border?

Like you know how the PROJECT skins and Elementalist Lux got special borders for a limited time that go around the champ picture when you load into game? Something like that.

That way it is more universal to all champs but still signifies mastery. It'd reduce the amount of stuff they have to make and add but show that you have mastery to everyone loading in.

Instead of giving you a free skin too, what if you got a free skin token? Upon reaching maximum mastery you are granted a skin token to permanently unlock a single skin from the store for that specific champion (only being able to unlock a skin that is currently in the store, not past or vaulted skins that are currently not available)

well , you don't really have to do it , i mean you can do it when you're done buying all the champs , or when you find a champ that you love so much that it doesn't how much ip u have to spend to get lvl 8 because it's earned playing the champ you love to play ^-^ ... that's why it's special , because it's the champ that you're good with and enjoy playing with it ... not like lvl 7 that any bonzie can get tho they suck with that champ cuz they don't have the experience with that champ to really make it shine in every game.

As about the skins , they don't have to be skins , a icon or/ and a baner is about all we rly need ... just to show the newbs in normal that we are serious about a champ not just some random mortal , to show off our OTP. The ace in our deck .

For example i main Sona and my team mates flame at me for not picking "tanky supp" tho i have 350K exp and i've made mods to my build and masteries about 500 times to make sure it's Perfection , now my build makes me almost immortal in late and i have a 70% winrate , (i literally paved my road to gold with sona's tears) but, sometimes they make me tilt with all that flaming , now , lvl 7 ain't that convincing but a lvl 10 Baner would show them my skill lvl and i'd be able to really focus on the game without them flaming at me from min 1 . Sona Sona Sona Sona here's some harmony , sorry for long post

I'm a xerath main with 760k mastery points. Honestly though, those aren't that impressive. I wanna see level 8, 9, and 10 come from getting CONSECUTIVE S ranks. RIght now anyone can get lucky have a few good games, and get M7. I want to be distinguished from those. I once had a streak of 13 games where I got S- or higher. I want something to commemorate that. Extra rewards are cool, but I wanna show off that I should be mastery 12 by now. Fancy mastery emote is all I really want. In the interest of submitting something useful about rewards though:

at level 8 you could unlock a summoner Icon that pulls the splash from your current skin (they already have this feature in the HUD) at level 9 you could unlock a ward skin that looks like your champion doing their dance animation at level 10 you could unlock a mastery skin that is a slight recolor of the classic skin. Maybe just make the colors a little extra deep, like when you amp up the saturation on a picture.

All of these could be done with relatively little effort on Riot's part, and I would honestly pay actual riot points for all of these.

I love to get a new goal with my main champion, because I've got like 7 champions with lvl 7 so it doesn't feel really special really. I would really love harder goals. so that you really have something to aim for. (like the new uncapped leveling)

Jungle Sadist10/29/2017, 1:32:41 AM3 votes

I think the current masteries are more than enough, but the mastery score should be a factor. Something as simple as a tiny banner under the mastery banner that shows your mastery score, but only if you have 100k plus.

Add prefixes and suffixes to the title that like and that you can collect them and pick to show up in loading screen. It can be depending on how many champs you have killed. For example if you killed a Kha'Zix a 100 times you can get the following prefix and suffix:

Simply adding additional Tiers to Champion Mastery is lazy design - the system is called 'Mastery' and still has nothing to do with Mastery. A fucking Bronze Tier 10 Yasuo is still infinitely worse than a Platinum Tier 5 Yasuo.

The only thing above Tier 7 should be a 'Tier R' which would basically be tied to getting X number of S's at a certain Ranked Tier. It would basically indicate, for example, "this player has achieved mastery of Caitlyn at a Platinum Standard".

School Shooter5/10/2017, 4:59:57 AM2 votes

I have been reading all the comments saying that the S's must be achieved in ranked in order to show that they got the S's in a skill level which isnt extremely lower than their own. This is a good idea except not all people play ranked. I know me and my friends only play normals because our skill groups are spread between us and we have more fun in normals anyway. So this would make getting champion mastery 8,9 and 10 unachievable. Ahri

Ban Me Harder8/15/2016, 3:49:05 PM2 votes

One of the only problems I see is that they would need to create all new chroma/skins for every champion in the game. That's a lot of work and unlikely, if you ask me. Of course, I do like all the ideas. I would not mind an exclusive skin for dedication and skill with champions.

It doesn't have to be a skin, maybe some kind of medal that permanently shows on the champion. or like a golden/platinum/diamond necklace or bracelet.

riot i think you idea is pretty good but do you think anyone would spend so much time on one champion and yes i know there are people who have reached 400 000 mastery points but still that will take a year playing the same champ or more.My point is people will stop experementing with new champs which would be bad i mean people who main the same champs will want to play the same thing on one lane over and over again which wou;d be very bad.I think you should lower the criteria for lv 10 something that wont take an year to complete.I am asking you do you think it is worth it to take an year of your time playing just one champ and getting a summoner icon and a skin.Hope you like my review

400.000 Masteriepoints are quiet a lot of. I like your concept but people who arent play that often have no chance to reach these requirements.

MisioXFearless4/14/2017, 7:44:27 PM2 votes

scrap the skins and chromas all together,

  1. At level 8 mastery: players could get a mastery icon (to spam ofc :D ) and it would represent their champion similar to the emotes during turnaments for example: Braum

2: at level 9 mastery: players would have gotten border for their champion during loading screen that fits the theme.

3: at level 10 mastery: ???????? no idea but maybe a ward or special interactions could work.

I don't know if this would be a good idea or not but maybe make it so the chests (or at least the master work ones) give you a skin shard for a champion you own or make it so when you reroll skin shards it turns it into a champion you own.
