Your unit file is still incomplete

1. there is no point in sourcing the sysconfig file if you are using an 
Environment variable
2. If using an EnvironmentFile= we add '-' in front of the path.
3. Adding the -f has the daemon stuck in foreground leaving the user 
waiting for the command to complete
4. You are calling the Environment you set wrong which results in..
  22197 /usr/bin/transmission-daemon -f -T # missing --blocklist -g 
/var/lib/transmission/.config/transmission
5. the reason there exist no pid file is because you omitted the section 
that creates it in the legacy sysv init script as in ""pidof -o %PPID -x 
$NAME > $DAEMON_PIDFILE"
