From what I have been told it does less damage the it did pre 12.0
Pure Skill used to be a useful mastery. It increased damage by skill champs by quite a bit. Enter 12.0 and the mastery was completely reworked to "function " with the new meta. As it stands right now it removes armor and basically stops at 0 armor. That is achieved with 3 points in the mastery for most opponents, so the last 2 points are a waste. The most expensive points of course. Previously it was more of an armor break that went into the negative which significantly improved damage especially compared to now.
As it stands now you'll get a few extra points of damage at r3, the difference is there, more so on heavy armor champs, but not really worth the cost of the cores or mastery points. Against low armor or no armor champs the difference is hardly noticeable.
What makes everything worse is how the changes have been sold. We've been told it's more effective because 3 points max it out but in reality it does far less damage than pre 12.0 when most people purchased it.
Hope that answers some questions. I'm sure some of my explanation is technically wrong, wrong terms, but you get my point.
They just need to reimburse all the units that people spent unlocking this mastery before they changed it.
They give rank down tickets so people can get back resources when they alter a champ, they dramatically altered this mastery so should give back the resources used (units) to unlock it.
