I honestly think probably for balanceI'm not going to go in the schematics of kinetic energy but if torch is, then he should probablyafter all both of them use fire in order to power their abilities
Because not every champion needs to have the same ability as other's have, and each one are different on their own.He has other purposes and abilities, and doesn't necessarily need to have something. He was just designed not to have that ability, which can be the same case for any champion that doesn't have it as well
