Why not just add a cooldown for Ryze's shield?
The main problem was that Ryze kept on using overload and getting a perma shield, but can't you just counter this by adding a cooldown instead of removing it completely?

Unless you wanna do CD within a CD (actually, an extra CD within the already existing 3 CDs and a conditional combo), which is a terrible idea.
Not to mention, the shield came with MS, which is also the other half of the problem. And since Ryze gets higher MS in exchange for the shield removal, I'd say that's an okay way to do about it.
