I Thought that they were Reworking Ryze
and from a ryze main i was happy, because they was going to give up this trash design going 80% defensive still kill everybody. But no, let's revert his oldest nerf to make him as oppressive as before

Current state of game, Ryze can barely make it out of laning phase in competitive.
Top that off, he needs an additional 20 minutes to be impactful.
rito: hey guys ryze is not picked in lcs this split why?
gc: he got nerfed we cant have that, ill buff him to have more viable ranged cancer into the top lane
mor: top lane belongs to ranged cancer anyways
rito:alright
can't think differently
he still has 50 or more damage less than before
v4.19:"As a strong late game scaling champion, Ryze's ability to bully out other top laners early is pretty bonkers, so we're reducing his base damage in lane while still leaving his ability to scale past laning phase intact. We'll be keeping an eye on Ryze over the next few patches, however, as these nerfs might be on the** light side for how dominant a champ he is.**"
Q - Overload BASE MAGIC DAMAGE: 60/85/110/135/160 ⇒ 40/60/80/100/120
PBE: Overload (Q) base damage increased to 60/80/100/120/140 from 40/60/80/100/120

Except as we have all seen since the nerfs, they weren't on the light side. He is completely trash now. He can't lane against anyone anymore, and you need to go to 50 minutes before he is even useful in teamfights.
Also, "His oldest nerf" does not mean "His absolutely most recent nerf."
Not saying I completely agree with the buff, but he does need a buff of some kind definitely.
I'm sure there's more to come.
