Ever wanted the world to know just which champion has your heart? Whether stomping through the Freljord with Sejuani, or you're standing center stage with "Draven! Draven!" chances are you have champions you favor over others. Don't make it a secret, because we're here to talk about Champion Mastery.
So what is Champion Mastery?
Starting on March 3rd, 2021, Champion Mastery goes live, letting you track your engagement with the champions you play most over time. This is represented through a Champion Mastery Bar which you can check in the new Mastery Page, where you'll be able to see the Mastery for all of the champions. Aside from feeling good when the numbers go up, you'll also earn Mastery Crests so the world can appreciate how much you love Aurelion Sol.
Keep your eyes peeled, because you'll be able to see your opponent's Mastery at the start of the game, or by expecting their deck (and they can do the same to you!)
How do I increase my Champion Mastery?
At the end of each match, you'll earn Mastery Points based on the number of copies of a champion you had in your deck. This is multiplied by a variable tied to the results of the match (win, loss, or tie), alongside the game mode you were playing in. If you level-up your Mastery with a champion during a match, you’ll also earn a bonus, reflected below. Let's check how that breaks down:

Wondering how Expeditions play into Mastery? You're in luck! Even if you don't own the champion, you can still earn Mastery through using them in Expeditions.
What are the different Master Tiers?
As you earn Mastery Points, you'll eventually go up a Mastery Tier. Each Tier will have a different Mastery Crest. While there's only 5 distinct Mastery Crests, you'll still keep leveling up for your own satisfaction (talking about Teemo bragging rights for the win).
