My Ryze Fantasy
A lot of people are saying that removing Ryze's point-and-click CC would make him easier to balance (although Realm Warp is the true problem IMO).
For me, the reason why I love Ryze the most out of all champs is the combination of machine-gun-ability-spamming while not spamming it mindlessly but thinking about combos simultaneously. Having a point-and-click CC is kind of neutral for me.
When daydreaming about what Ryze could be without the point and click CC, I always imagine something like that:
- Make it so that W and E are firing a projectile. The exact same projectile like Q, only a different colour.
- If hit, they do the exact same thing as current Ryze.
- Of course, raise damage numbers because of harder to land abilities.
I would feel like Son Goku machine-gunning energy balls at enemies <3
There are many many things you can do to his Ult then, my favourite for this fantasy would be:
- For 10 seconds,
makie him super-saiyanhis skills do more damage (similar to Vayne R) - During this time, he has no cast times on Q, W, E and can move freely (When doing a QWQEQ combo, it would look like Lucian R). I feel like this could have huge potential for Skill expression.
What do you think?
NOTE: Dont't take the "only a different colour" too literally. What I meant is, make Q, W and E skillshots with the same range, width, speed etc. Of course, they can look slightly different in shape.
