What does Cruelty in Mastery do?

I just need to know does Cruelty in Mastery help increasing base attack (yellow color) for every champ?
If no, then what does it do?
(Sorry to ask such a noob question, but i need to be cleared on this)

Cruelty increases the Critical Damage Rating of your champions, which determines the amount of bonus damage your champs do when they land a critical hit.

@Kabam Zibiit Critical hit means the Yellow Colors?

Yep, the damage numbers will show up as yellow when you score a critical hit.

@Kabam Zibiit Awesome! So this means when i score a critical hit(yellow) & if i maxed out my Cruelty from mastery, the numbers will increase, isn't it?.

Correct!

sorry to bring this back up again, but @Kabam Zibiit is there any additional insight on what the actual numbers mean, from a calculation perspective when we are talking about critical damage rating and cruelty buffs, especially given that it is one of Ghost's key features?

Any solid information would be extremely helpful

@mutamatt I got it later and thanks for the addition... 🙂
