Charts & Statistics - League of Legends - Lolking

hi, guys, good to see you all. I am a new LoL player, I just started playing LOL since last month (December). I have been playing Ryze for most of the time (90%) . Ryze He is a free and powerful champion , and that's why I chose him as my main. However, he is not easy to master. There are a lot techniques and combos that I have to learn in order to play him well. I spent lot of times to study him like finding guides and builds that suits him. I know he had been reworked for a few times because he was too powerful back then.

but here's the thing I found out after I looking for Ryze's stats:

http://champion.gg/statistics/#?sortBy=general.playPercent&order=descend http://www.leagueofgraphs.com/champions/stats/by-winrate http://www.lolking.net/charts/champion-loserate?region=all&range=daily&map=sr&queue=normal http://www.lolskill.net/champion/ryze

> Stat. Popularity Win-rate

  • Champion.gg 5.67% 44.37%
  • Leagueofgraphs.com 9.6% 44.0%
  • lolking.net 8.8% 44.6%
  • lolskill 9.2% 43.7%

With such high Popularity yet low win-rate (NOT even over 45%) after the new rework, I sincerely hope any LOL champion designers could read my message and take an examination on Ryze. As above-mentioned, Ryze is a powerful champion, but he got some serious cons as well

  1. a very late-game champion- http://champion.gg/champion/Ryze/Middle
    The win-rate of Ryze reaches 50% only after 40min+. And right now most of the games ends within 30-40 mins. Even an experienced player might need at least 25-30mins to farm and develop Ryze. That means most Ryze players can't fully engage fight and AOE until late game , not to mention get killed/ganked in the mid-game which hinder ryze's development.
  2. Having an embarrassing ultimate- Real Warp- Lv1 distance-1750m Lv2 distance-3000m 2s for delay if Ryze is having level 1 Real warp, he is basically can't kill an escaping champion by himself because of the 2s delay and very short teleporting distance. Even ryze has a level 2 real warp, he can't gank/chase top/bot opponents if he is in mid-lane because he can only reach half distance .

Might need more time to do edition, but I hope someone might really take time to read this post!!!

Ryze has a very inflated winrate among his onetricks and mains, which is offset by his low winrate in low elo. Although he's a rather brainless champion at his core, his ult requires him to work with his team - an impossible task in lower elo's, which gives him a deceptively low winrate.

He has very little weaknesses - early game before his first back is pretty much your only chance of out-trading him due to his shield. He has insane push/waveclear potential and zoning potential with his E spreading on hit.

He needs a rework, not because he is weak, but because when he is played by someone who has mastered him, he has very little counterplay because of his point and click root and fast combos. I think he is healther than he was before his rework (s), when he was 100% point and click and became impossible to kill late game, but as long as he has that retarded passive that rewards him for building full mana, he's going to be a problem as long as there are items like Catalyst and Seraph's, offering massive amounts of survivability which double-dips with his kit.

Thank god they took mana off banshee's veil since he used to go Roa/Banshee's/Frozen and was literally tankier than actual tank characters while outdamaging late game ADCs fairly early on, and having zero way to dodge his abilities.

His ult is very strong, but needs coordination to use it properly, so it suffers in low elo when people are retarded and run around like headless chickens and don't focus properly or coordinate.

Just treat him like an Azir, get rid of a lot of shit from him, but give him an actual ultimate.
