Sivir's passive is incredibly hard to notice.

At level one it gives her just 10 more movespeed than the highest normal movespeed. And that's only in combat for two seconds. You can't see it either. Honestly some people probably couldn't even tell you what her passive is. It would be really cool to have her passive be more relevant. Or maybe add a part to it that says that phage does the full movespeed boost for her even though she is ranged. I want this because Sivir item 3071 item 1300 should really be a thing.

that's huge though

ranged champions naturally have lower movespeed to offset the fact that they don't have to be up close to do their damage. being able to outrun most champs' base movement speed is extremely significant even though it's not flashy

As soon as I read your title, my first thought was "Sivir has a passive?" No joke. You're right, I don't think it's noticeable, but I don't think it's not helping her either.

Yeap, but I think it should scale better.

It scales pretty well considering it gives you 50 flat MS in the late game.

Maybe you meant that at the early stages of the game she should get more?

In that case , Riot wanted to nerf her "Spam W" style , which gave her great amounts of wave-clear , poke , mobility and all at a cost of 30 mana ( and used on every minion wave twice most of the times , or once if you maxed W ). It was not an interactive play-style , and was forcing many players to pick a wave-clear machine as good as her if they wanted a good farm.

Before this "play-style" nerf, her passive granted her 50 flat MS if she hit a champion in every stage of the game!

Gives her a lot of chasing power, though

When it comes to chasing power Vayne passive works by far better.. Or kallistas..

In Vayne's case , Sivir's passive gives more MS and it only requires you to hit your enemies from time to time , being good at both chasing and running away. And don't even mention Vayne's ult , because Sivir has one too xD

I definitely think the movespeed should stack on successive autos or something. It really is only noticeable when you are chasing someone with autos, even then hardly

The point of her passive is mainly to compensate for her short AA range mainly from what I can tell, it makes ti easier to stick or escape given that you need to move in closer.

I'd say it's the "hidden power" kind of hard to notice

when i think sivir i dont think power house. she throws a boomerang thing and blocks spells. she is also a bandit who thematicly fits with having these things that are not so noticable. if you dont have a gap closer, hard cc or just have longer range you should not be able to catch sivir, she is ashes inverse in a way except her passive is actually more usefull in a team fight then the perpetual slow that gets pushed out by stronger ones (since slows dont stack). while i understand the wish to have it buffed sivir generally has alot of power in her kit even if it isnt direct power.

i love her passive. i do wish it had some better visuals to go along with it though.

Well, the only way to make it more noticeable is to double the movespeed and halve the duration. I don't think that's the best idea.

Fun fact: In old times, wen we still had dodge, Sivirs passive gave her 20% dodge for 2 seconds while attacking :0

I've heard Jax wanted to steal that passive from her, unfortunately he caught rework-nerf disease while trying to rob her from her dodging. Riot then decided to end this problem with simply removing dodge :)

uhm it actually is noticeable either that or I'm just an adc main that notices the slightest bit of kiting
