Ryze: 4 Reworks, 9 Skins

before Yorick who has been the least picked champion forever and one of the weakest picks on top.

Must be nice to be the champion named after the RIOT CEO so that the companie drops everything for to push ryze back in the spotlight because hes their little favorite.

Thats the main reason ryze was changed before yorick. Ryze is played often and has always been either really good or really bad, riot didnt want to balance him anymore so they gave him an actual rework. While the low population for yoricks show ryze as the bigger problem for champion updates.

It might help if the rework team didn't try to go crazy with reworks.

yeah, but they're knockin' it out though. Like how many more champs need big/full reworks? I say like three tops because yorick and warwick are on the list.

Yeah, but I meant more of they give the reworked champions a crazy kit. Poppy was so powerful when she got her rework. Taric has that invincibility (i thought they didn't want invulnerability)... which I heard from some Rioter saying "yeah the counter is just kill them before it goes off... lol" The previous Ryze had a perma root and insane burst potential with just 2 items. This new Ryze looks scary because that ult... a lot of champions are balanced around not being able to engage easily. I'll wait until it plays out. Right now, I'm quite nervous.

Probably reworks: Akali, Irelia (since I've heard that the lead balancer HATES HATES her kit, and that's a major reason she's so readily nerfed), Blitzcrank (his kit feels old and clunky, and will never be strong because it's an oppressive kit), I mean I'm no expert on what champ needs a full rework so I guess I won't list a lot.

Yorick was not delayed because of Ryze. There's two different teams working on the reworks. One was on Ryze, one was working on Yorick. Ryze didn't delay Yorick.

Like literally Riot has said this so many times, what's so hard to understand about it?
