Ideas for Ryze, Azir, Gangplank, and Maokai

Before I begin I would like to ask that you also read my other articles.

Ryze: A New Q, and A New Role I will begin by mentioning that I already have two different articles with ideas for Ryze in them. One with an idea for his passive, and one about his ultimate. I still would like to see both those ideas applied to Ryze, as well as my new ideas. My idea for Ryze's new Q would allow him to use his magic to heal himself and his allies. This and my other ideas would go well together to make Ryze suitable for his new role, a support. If all three of my ideas, Ryze's new passive, ultimate, and Q, are applied to Ryze that would make him a very effective support champion. Ryze being a support gives people more options when playing as Ryze, and would make playing as Ryze a lot more fun and enjoyable.

Azir: A New E I already have an article about another idea for Azir, his ultimate. I would like to see that idea as well as this one applied to Azir. My idea for Azir's new E is that instead of dashing to his soldiers, Azir hits his opponent with the blunt end of his spear. This would allow Azir to do more damage. The cool down would be very low, like Yasuo's Q. Azir's new E would do less damage than his basic attacks, probably about 60 or 70 percent, but it would allow Azir to put our a lot more damage without needing his soldiers.

Gangplank: A New Passive Again I already have an article with an idea for Gangplank in it, and this is another idea that I would like to see added to Gangplank as well as my other idea. My idea for Gangplank's new passive is that when Gangplank dies a ghost pirate comes from his body and hunts down his killer. This would give Gangplank the ability to rack up kills, even if he dies a lot. The ghost pirate would be able to fire his pistol and use his sword, so even at range it would be deadly.

Maokai: A New Passive, Ultimate, and W. I do not have any articles about my ideas for Maokai yet, so I have several ideas. First up, his passive. My idea for Maokai's passive is that he should slowly grow fruit - specifically apples - over time. The more apples Maokai has at one time the more health and ability power he has. However Maokai looses all of his apples upon death. Second, Maokai's Ultimate. My idea for his ultimate is that Maokai should be able to call upon the help of one or two other living trees, like when Treebeard summons all the ents in "Lord of the Rings". This would be very helpful in team fights and would give a chance to escape, because the opposing team can't tell which one is Maokai and which are the AI controlled "ents". Third, Maokai's W. My idea for Maokai's W is that Maokai simply uses his roots to trap an opponent so they can't move or use abilities for a few seconds.

Thank you for reading my article, and again if you liked this one I have a few more articles posted. Please tell me what you think about my ideas, maybe we can get Riot Games to use a few of them.
