[Discussion]: Ryze - Which one was the best?

Today I wanted to ask everyone a question, regarding Ryze .

This champion has gone through so many iterations over the years that it's become meme-worthy in the community. Out of curiousity, which one was your favorite & which one do you think worked the best? There's the following iterations that I remember:

• Patch 9.12 - His Current Iteration
• Patch 6.14 - When Ryze Recieved the VGU that introduced his Ultimate, [R: Realm Warp]
• Patch 5.8 - His [Q: Overload] became a Skillshot & his passive had that stacking mechanic on his passive where once he had 5 stacks, he gained a shield & lowered the cooldowns of his other abilities with each spellcast.
• Patch 3.10 - When I first begain playing League, this was the first Incarnation of Ryze that I saw.

If there was one I missed, feel free to share it here.
