Soooo...just found out Ryze's ult still carries him away while Zhonya'd.

Comment below threshold

yes.

definitely intended. He is giving up his ult CD and his Zhonya's to do it, the number of cases where ulting away while zhonya'ing is very low when you want the item for combat, making it actually a very uncommon thing to do.

his ult is a forcemove of anything in it. i think the ONLY thing immune to his ult is baron

Exactly as intended.

Never follow the enemy ryze into his portal. You'll only get trapped under tower xD
