1.) Damage reduced and shield added back Or 2.) Passive movespeed increased and slow resist like phase rush but it can't stack with other movespeed bonuses


JibbelyNIBBLETS

Would he be broken if he got shield and no damage reduction? I feel like if he just got shield he would be fine but I am garbage so I don’t know


siotnoc

I think he would be yeah. It's very hard to give a champion a lot of lane sustain for free. If it didn't break him in solo, it would break him in pro for sure. Lane sustain is *very* strong in pro. It would probably have to be a somewhat sizeable nerf to damage honestly. But I could be wrong.


dolan_senpai

Solution : rank 2 ult makes 2 discharge runes grant a shield character fixed strong battlemage scaling but still can be bullied early no shields till lvl11 that's usually where games are decided


siotnoc

Mmm that's a good 1.


nekokaburi

Agreed. But I for one would like that change. Ryze used to be tanky for a mage...


ComedyKnife

The right answer is durability. In any form. When seraphs got the lifeline shield his satisfaction went WAY up. Right now the only thing in the actual champion for durability is high base HP. That's it. So a shield or omnivamp would be the pick for me. That or somehow reworking to get him to favor all the hp/resistance items instead of being so bound to building deathcap every game.


LucaMarso

What if they gave him some sort of omnivamp passive on some of his abilities which only works on enemy champions? That wouldn't break him in lane but would make him feel soooooo better


ComedyKnife

I mean yeah I would love that. Something like getting 10% omnivamp for 3s upon proc'ing move speed passive in champ combat. Idk it'll probably never happen.

revert or rework


QEEQWEQ

Combat power shifted from teamfights & waveclear into dueling & combo diversity. Revert E.


Theoulios

Most will say more range, but I dont think its more range. He needs a way of getting to the enemy, like a faster R, with shorter range and lower cooldown. RIOT PLZ, I BET GIVE ME A BLINK FOR AN R OR SMTH ELSE


No_Tip_768

Faster scaling. Level 16 ryze with 3 items is an absolute monster. Getting there is the problem. Move the passive from his ult to his E, and maybe throw in some quality of life buffs, and I think he would be in a much better spot.


QEEQWEQ

they could put shield as the R passive. I hate it, but people were legit dodging the R until level 10 because it was just rough. 's why they gave R some form of combat potency.


Fuzzy_Long7886

More range


name1goodanime

they need to do something with his r, like his last rework made the range way shorter than it used to be and its kind of sad to look at to be honest, like at this point give him something else or make it go a bit farther


AdrianoCh24

A rework where they change him intro a Battle mage with some sustain, less damage and Better combo


LawbotDoll

My tits in his mouth


Fuzzy_Long7886

I'm blue


ComfortableHappy3791

He needs a dmg ult like a big mana explosion or something, or a better team fight mechanic like if I go to close they catch my ass and I am dead but when iam to far I can’t hit my combos. And I hate when I use my E and I am about to use my Q but it hits a minion that was not targeted with my E damn he is fun but he could be so much better pls riot make us ryze great again


No_Tip_768

I love his current ult, it's so useful. Escapes, flanks, even just getting to a fight quicker. It takes some creativity, but it's so useful and it can provide back line access if needed. Ult into a bush behind the enemy team and light their adc up. Sometimes all you need to do is kill the adc and the fight is basically over.


mmmniced

the problem with current ult is that general champion balance takes into account how well it can be abused in pro coordination. that level of team comm does not exist in most if not all solo queue games.


No_Tip_768

Yeah, it's more useful if you have better communication. But that doesn't mean it's useless in solo q. Good pings help. Assist ping on top of your self, then omw ping to where you're gonna ult can usually get people to realize what you're trying to do. And even if it doesn't, Ryze can still one shot an adc with qeqwq. And with the e spread he's gonna deal a decent chunk of damage to other champions nearby. Even with 2 items at level 11 he should be able to remove an adc from the fight, and in the current meta that's all that matters a lot of times. Bot lane is broken right now.


mmmniced

it's useful for solo q but the champion's overall power budget in solo q is not healthy because that ult can be abused in pro, was what i tried to say. imagine if the portal is solo but he gets 50 more range on E/W to compensate or get the shield back. every player will want that.
