[2021] Is there a reason why Riot is buffing Sylas instead of fixing this highly annoying, 100% reproducable bug that negatively impacts his power level instead?

I'm talking about the one where he simply loses all his passive stacks whenever he uses R to steal an ult. It has been in the game for 4 or 5 patches already and happens every single game, every time I use R to steal an ult. The moment the chain with the stolen Ult comes back, all passive stacks are instantly gone.

To reproduce it, just go into practice mode and steal any ult with Sylas. As soon as the chain returns, you will immediately lose all passive stacks you had (including the one you got from casting R).

So worst case scenario is, you try to engage with e1 -> r -> e2 and are left with 0 stacks instead of the expected 3.

And yes, I did post in the bug megathread already, but since Riot seems to be oblivious as to why Sylas WR is so low the last few patches and just randomly decided to buff him now, it seems they are STILL completely unaware of this bug
