Ryze feels like shit to play
You can't just completely remove a champion's survivability with such little compensation. The only thing this new ryze is good at is shoving waves and even then compared to other mages he just gets outclassed in nearly every single regard: low range, damage is pretty average but you have to get within buttraping range to pull it off, and if the enemy is r%%%%%ed enough to step up that far he would get popped by literally every other champ in the game, from double the range. His eeq or weq for lackluster movement feels completely pointless. You can't itemize full tank and expect to deal damage, and itemizing for damage leaves you to just instantly die. He also loses nearly every single 1v1 in the game so splitpushing is almost completely pointless. You can't teamfight because eq is nearly impossible to pull off due to its garbage range. Kinda feels like a shitty kayle waiting for 16 to deal any real damage, because riot decided they want to put all of his damage in his r for some reason. His combos are ultrabraindead, as all you do now is spam eq. Is seeing 0 proplay presence and is rarely played by mains anymore in high elo, and for being such a fucking easy ass champ to pull off now his winrate is sitting at 46-47%. sorry im just a little mad at what they did to the blue boi :(
