Hoping Ryze Gets More Treatment In 6.6

I hope Riot have done enough live research on Ryze's current state and get back to their "Long-term vision" they have in store for him. He's okay to play now and some players are doing a cute item 3042 build on him (I call it cute because it's not really game changing) recently but he still feels so off because of the 5 spell cap nerf. I'm hoping Riot really change his passive again along with the way the rest of his kit works (like W) because unless they make all his spells do twice as much damage the 5 spell cap will make him unfun to play for new and experienced players, it just feels like a full STOP when you hit the last spell and can't continue for another 3 seconds or so getting huge blue Ryze balls fidgeting around hoping the opponent somehow loses their brain and stops right clicking you for those moments you have sitting there regretting on why you even chose Ryze. At level 16 this cap becomes more manageable as in the span of 2 seconds you get your ult back after using the 5 combo. He really does not unlock any potential until level 16 which is too late for Season 6. Only way I've done well with Ryze this patch (6.4) is by luckily getting fed by big mistakes players are making. Magic Resist really does cripple Ryze's ability to do anything for the first 20 minutes which is something all players should had considered when he was apparently OP. Anyway I really like this blue idiot and I want him to be viable again. This nerf has been the hardest to play with in a long time for Ryze.

My only issue with Rito buffing ryze is that he is completely and totally unfun. He is either steamrolling everyone, or getting steamrolled by everyone.

There is no inbetween (there never has been) and it sucks. I would rather they go full Yorick and leave ryze meh like he is now untill they find a way to balance him PROPERLY
