@RIOT Ryze Update: Runic Mage Delivery

I know everyone is focused on the ap itemization changes at the moment (I personally like them a lot) but I'm here to talk about Ryze and how his "rune mage" concept is falling a little flat. So runes are symbols that give power once stepped on or activated and that's the fun part, I think, about runes. It take preparation and timing to affectively use them (when looking at other games, i.e. Skyrim and Dragon Age), but with Ryze runes are just things to hurl at other champs with no real concept to it other than he's a runic mage, throw a tune in there. I think runes have a deeper meaning to them then just a blue skill shot with a symbol in the middle of it (I understand mages need skill shots and ranged poke) and his symbols on his body or in his book should be explored more in my opinion. I'm not saying make all his abilities traps or have certain runes on him glow a different color when he uses an ability (although that would be cool) I'm just saying there is a disconnection between Ryze and his magic and hopefully it will be fixed this year with his updated.

If you have any suggestions on how to make Ryze more attached to his runic magic or just changes you want to see on him in general then please comment below!
