There i was, finally under mid tower as Syndra for the first time and as i started reading all of Syndras abilities it didn't take me long to get extras excited about playing Syndra and that's because of her passive. its a very intriguing mage passive in that it focuses on her abilities, which is a mages whole deal. It gets you excited about really cool new powers and perks that u can discover by leveling up, which is something that can be really enjoyable for a lot of people and isn't fun is really what League is all about.

"Transcendent (Passive): Each of Syndra's normal abilities gain an extra effect at max rank. Q:Dark Sphere: Spheres deal bonus damage to champions. W: Force of Will: Projectiles briefly knock enemies into the air. E: Scatter the Weak: Cone width increases."

A Fitting passive can give champs a memorable play style and individuality that could make them your favorite, or even a community favorite, to the point where they become so well known and so loved AND hated that suddenly they become a mascot. A great passive that Builds around someones kit or one of their play-style traits the way Syndras does, similarly to Teemo or Blitzcrank's annoyingness mycsnow or Nautilus's relentless cc.

i love both ideas of building champs around the lore void i find it very exotic, as well as the life after death catch to that group of champs and that's because its focused on building around a theme but many would argue that it teeters dangerously close to being a gimmick. Karthus Zac and Sions passives are all great they have an amazing look and feel to them and enhances those champions play-styles.

Kindred kindred is another great example of a superb passive perhaps the best actually considering their popularity take off and how new of a champion kindred is. its alluring which adds to their persona, it totally fits their whole reaper of death character,its interactive, you become stronger the more u have which is rewarding which is fun doubly so for the complexity her passive brings to the table. it just makes me feel a littleitem 3070_blu _item 3070 that someones passive can bring so much thought and fun to the table while what some others bring to the table can be considered practically negligable.

creating champions is a epic feat which is no understatement and creating ones that are balanced and as well loved as community favorites is heck near impossible. But i know riot cares and so do i so i'm trying to be pro_ACTIVE_ in the hopes it pays off. I do this in hopes that champions like zyra and ziggs and kayle who have somewhat counter intuitive passives get changed to utilize all the possible potential that each of these wonderful champions have ~fin
