In my defense regarding the different Innate passives:

It's my mistake I was not clear with my description, but Placid is meant to activate even when attacking an enemy, so long as you remain in the same ground. I thought "standing still" and "remaining in the same position" differs from each other. I'll clarify things in the discription after my reply.

I honestly had to search google for the meaning of Deluge ang Turbulent before finishing the kit, hahahaha. As water, they are kind of the same, violent or uncontrolled.... but still different. Same goes for the Innate.

Deluge: If you can imagine the combo E-W-Q-AAA-R-Q, Noven has a total of 5 Q's, if given that 1 sec=1 Q-cast. When I'm going for AD build, it is far more superior than the reset R can give, even with the buff of Turbulent. Yes the result is somehow the same, having 5 Q's is better than having 2 Q's then wait for a few seconds to cast another. It is also a 275-range dash, it is short, but Noven can move around, dodge skillshots with it, chase a fleeing enemy, or escape when other abilities are on cooldown. I'm gonna add a small buff for this passive.

Turbulent is meant for Noven to spam his E and W. And since this two abilities are his priorities, Noven is pushed to build AP with this passive, turning him into a mobile-poke Mage. With "Lich Bane", spamming W's deal a great amount of damage, and two casts of E's give a total of 180% AP damage, enough to burst a squishy target late game. As I've said with my defense above, going AD with this passive is underwhelming compare to Deluge and if I want to spam Q's. I'll use Syndra as my example regarding the passive's nature; her passive is a buff to all her abilites, but I think it really defines her as a burst mage. Same goes for Noven, a glorified buff to R it may seem, as long as it defines him to what he's meant to be, I'll take it. As of now, it is my the best option.

I can agree with you in regards with the passive. I'll think of something to add or replace.

Thank you for visiting and commenting, really appreciated. I'll hear from you 1st after you read my opinion, before really changing anything, aside from some clarifications with the wording.
