Had the idea reading over the dev update thread. Paying for achievements is kind of dumb and while making commons available for blue essence twice a year is good, I understand riot is a business and needs to monetize (announcers pls).
I feel like this is a good opportunity to update the mastery system with a real reward for hitting mastery 7. Let people pick a unique or even make it random when they hit that milestone. Maybe give them a common at mastery 5.
Granted given Riots... dubious... history with coding themselves into a box from what I've read this might be impossible but just a thought of a solid way to give some people an eternal they care about while having a more robust experience behind a paywall.
