We have summarized a few comments on Reddit about what players think about the new design:

  • BeMyWard writes: “Am I the only one who finds it ugly? It looks as detailed as a cheap mobile game.”
  • Cobiuss_NA: I don’t like it. Overdesigned and pretentious.
  • f0xy713 writes: I don’t understand why they feel the need to change it completely. The old championship symbol is iconic, and nothing new they come up with will be better. You should just add more colors and expand it slightly.
  • What else is planned? At the beginning of the year, Riot Games announced that they would like to work on the championship system and improve it overall.

    Here are the most important changes at a glance:

  • Real Achievements: The championship is intended to represent real achievement, not just reward continuous play.
  • Continuous improvement: Players should always be able to strive for greater mastery, and the system should be able to reflect these aspirations.
  • The mastery level cap has been removed, and players can now increase their level to infinity – no longer just level 7. A new mechanic called Mastery Marks replaces the old S-rank tokens and represents specific achievements with a champion.

    You can read more about the mastery system and how to get mastery marks on the official League of Legends website.

    When should the update come? The mastery emote design and planned changes are currently still in development, indicating that the current design may not be the final one. It remains to be seen whether Riot Games will take player feedback into account.
