@primusmobilevzla Hm, so you are thinking he is doing wrong things? Sure, I could get that, and I think so too. My reply was about how, as far as I understand, the orignal comment was about Sylas actions just doesnt make sense (I could have a misunderstand here, not sure). I dont think what he did was right, but it still make sense from his view point.

However, I dont really see the other point about him not being champion material. The Darkin are all prisoner themselves. Sure, the Darkin are very powerful, but Sylas by mortal standard is one of a kind too as far as we know. Almost all mage who can still use spells in such a close vicinity of petricite are specially powerful. So if Garen can be a champion (level wise) and Varus or Rhaast is champion worthy despite they would never get out without a host (situation wise), I dont see why Sylas shouldnt (both level and situation wise).

As for his jailer, I personally chart that under "it is enough for most people, not just this specific one". I mean, if it work for Hannibal, I dont see how it cant work here.

Finally, on his ult stealing, I think we have to accept a certain level of gameplay vs lore disparity here, just like we accept he could steal ultimate that lorewise just doesnt make sense, like Urgot's. The worst you can accuse Riot then is the lack of exploration into how magic work, and had that been your argument I would agreed. However, as thing are now, there is no really reasonable way to concretely argue that Sylas should not be able to steal spell. For example, from Ryze, who is an adept learner of magic, we know that magic have at some level a sentinent, and "want to be used". If Sylas share the same approach to magic as Ryze does instead of traditional mage, mimic magic should not be too hard. He just have to absorb the spell once to "hear" how the magic "speak" and voila.

@TAGDavid, the universal magic energy was meant for Primusmobilevzla. I should have clarified that and I apologized for it. As for the gauntlet, it is personal taste, so no qualm from me there.
