alternate passives

What is your perspective on alternate passives for champions?? Similar to HotS (Heroes of the Storm) - where you pick augmentations to certain abilities for strategic diversity.

maybe even ults as well. For example, I can gear toward a utility passive/ultimate with ashe or more marksman characteristics

I'm against it. I think it's a neat system in HotS, but I don't think I want it here.

HotS thrives only because of the integrated myriad of games in it. These games reflect on the fan base.

I also seem to experience shorter match time as well.

Mechanically, its a simple game. It becomes trite very quickly though, compared to LoL.

picking traits is what differentiates it and other conventional MOBAs, so why not just for an additive. then again, copying it would cause LoL to be stale and not unique

In almost every single case one would be a better pick all time. Which means you just added a different "best build" except with a burden of knowledge to know what all the other passives are on the off chance they take them.
