An idea for mastery rewards (related to skins, in a sense).

So, while the mastery system is nice so far, it feels a little lackluster overall. I definitely love what you have going with the whole loading screen badge, and the in-game emote (Though I was hoping for something a little more champion specific, like maybe a special voiced taunt or something), I think that it doesn't quite feel like you're the master of THAT SPECIFIC CHAMPION, if that makes sense? It doesn't have that "Look how good I am at playing Jax", it feels like "Look how good I am with a champion, who happens to be Jax."

I had an idea to remedy this. While the simplest and most obvious way would just be a free skin, possibly a custom "mastery" skin for that champion, that also seems like it would be a lot of work. So I had some other, possibly more reasonable suggestions:

1. A champion icon. A large majority of the league population already wants icons for the different champions, so what better way to give them out than by mastering that champion? It would be great to be able to use the icons of your favorite champions, and your friends would also be able to see it whenever they looked at your profile or invited you to a game, and it'd show up in the load screens too.
2. To pair with that idea, a possible profile banner (similar to the ones that apply when you use the spirit guard Udyr icons) for each icon would be nice, but I realize that would also take a good bit of work.
3. A slight modification for the default skin. I don't mean a recolor, I mean something added to the skin. Maybe a decal on their clothes, or a modification to their weapon. Some sort of visible effect that could be switched on and off in a similar manner to how chroma packs are used. It would probably take a little longer than most of the other suggestions, but I would assume it'd take less time than making a whole new skin.
4. Either of the suggestions I made in the introduction. Time consuming, but still decent ideas.

These are just what I thought up. Anyone else can feel free to leave their ideas in the comments as well. I just thought I'd say something, since I really like and see a lot of potential in the champion mastery system, but in its current state, it just doesn't quite have the impact I feel it could.
