    Max out Wisdom and Intelligence, along with Pittance and Prosperity so you can get as much Gold and XP as you can from the match.

    It’s gonna cost you a lot of units to get everything if you don’t have it unlocked - fair warning.

    Max out Despair, 3x Block Proficiency, max Stand Your Ground, max Willpower, max Inequity and max Limber - basically, set it up so you have the most toxic masteries when you place your defense, lol. Here’s what I run:







    I also have max Collared Tech and 4x Mystic Dispersion for some extra juice on my Mystics and Techs on both Offense and Defense. I am admittedly considering taking off Collared Tech and one point from MD to throw into Assassin like suggested above, but not 100%.

    Also, forgot to mention, maybe you already know, but you can customize your masteries for BG, save them to your deck, and then change your masteries for other content without it affecting what was saved for BG.
    So I definitely run two different sets of masteries for BG and non-BG, and I don't have to spend units to recustomize or activate and deactivate.

    BG masteries (with defensive acknowledgements):



    Masteries for other content (100% offense-focused):

    Why everyone is saying max stand your ground? It's not like opponent is going to throw heavy on your defender lol. Or am I missing something

    A lot of players use heavies to break through blocks I assume, and this will frustrate that. Also, if you look at the masteries map, you'll see that you need 15 points in defense to unlock WP and Inequity and some other things. So you have to invest the points somewhere and the options aren't great. Usually you're picking between Stand Your Ground or Perfect Block.
    I can't remember what my BG defensive layout is, but this is why I don't run WP and Inequity in my non-BG layout; I don't want to invest points in Stand Your Ground or Perfect Block just to unlock the other stuff.

    Have a point in unfazed just to heck with people who want to use count nefaria and Elsa. Besides that, it doesn't matter too much. Have willpower, and don't use the recoil tree masteries.

    I personally run 5/5 deep wounds and 5/5 MD because I use a lot of mystics and bleeders. I also only have my standard 2 points in stand your ground because realistically, how many people are actually throwing heavies through the opponents block in PvP? Maybe a lot, but I'm not one of them.

    If you run a decent amount of techs, then Collar tech is also a good mastery to invest in.

    I really feel like switching from Mystic dispersion to collar tech. There are some really juicy tech attackers and defenders, I’ve now got five rank three techs who are all good attackers or defenders and only three rank three mystics, one of those being enchantress who I never really use anyway, she’s a pain because she’s a pain not because of Mystic dispersion.

    I maxed out Collar Tech to try it out; I don't think it's worth it. Even at 5/5, it's only an 18% decrease in combat power rate. If this was a node, we'd pretty much ignore it. Sure, it can give that extra little edge to power drain Techs, but at such high cost for such relatively modest benefits?
    Whereas 5/5 MD can generate tremendous amounts of power gain.

    Does anyone know of the difference in 1/3 (.5) and 3/3(.7) in willpower makes much difference?

    It's 40% extra healing times the 15% max recovery if you have it (so 46% total).
    But the raw healing will scale with the number and duration of debuffs you're suffering from.
    So if you're taking a lot of debuffs (like if you run suicides), it will help.
    Otherwise, the difference will be less substantial.

    Max stand your ground can save you more than you expect when you experience lag.
    3/4 for block prof is enough, you can estimate how it scales by checking stat focus of the champs.
    For stalling, max resonate paired with inequity is underrated if you have champs with easy access to debuffs or punish purify.
    Only 1/5 for deep wounds just because it's very easy to counter and you need it to get 1/5 for assassin.
