Masteries: how they work

In Season 3 you have up to 30 points (at level 30) to split across three trees: Offense (damage), Defense (durability) and Utility (mana, cooldown reduction and mobility). The notation 21/0/9 means 21 points in Offense, 0 in Defense and 9 in Utility.

Masteries
9/0/21 — Utility
Why this page
9/0/21 gives mana and utility to spam voidlings and hold the lane.
Runes
