To all the people talking about that ol' faithful Leo should be able to procc her own passive.

So, what would that mean for her "enabler" role for the one supported? how are the chances for the passives actually being procced by others in a direct confrontation, disregarding teamfights, or even in teamfights? as she herself has quite some AE to procc her marks on multiple targets? this would mean 2 things.

Less chances (almost none for direct confrontations) for your AP carry to proc the passive, meaning less MagPen affecting it leading to less damage. Or less chances of the passive proccing in tie with benefiting effects from others at all (damage bonus or things alike).

Secondly, you couldn't savely stick to your target without the high probability of you getting the kill. I am no follower of the "OMG KS"-cult, but let's face it, the higher probability of you proccing all passives save for maybe the one you applied last (in which case you would have to stop attacking completely) your carry will have a harder time skipping his/her early/mid. especially since the assist gold has been scaled down by quite some, and rewards are decreasing pretty fast now. this applies even more when you give a penalty to that selfactivation, you would have to stop attacking until you are sure your carry or anyone else procced the mark, disrupting your team-damage or your own appliance of reliable CC.

I agree that she feels laking when being alone, and her jungle leaves the passive procced by herself to be desired, but the damage she adds to your people with % damage increases or magic penetration makes up for it. Personally, i feel awesome after fights as her, just because I went in like a real gold-armored woman while my mates murdered things even faster than they normally would.
