I made that huge block of text all the way back in september, and back then, Ryze was considered pretty damn bad, but things have changed and you are right, he is an S tier champion now. In fact, people seem to think he is so powerful that he's getting nerfed in 9.24 (the nerf is pretty small though, just 15 less dmg on his Q, the thing that is actually going to be a nerf are the changes to conqueror on ranged champs). Just like you, I also like ryze how he is right now quite a bit, but I still can't forget the champ he used to be pre-mini rework. Honestly, I would like him to get the shields back, but they could lower the bonus damage to targets with spell flux as a compensation nerf, because his damage is what seems to the problem now, and thats way people have started complainig. I'm pretty sure noone would mind if he did less damage but became tankier it would make him more of a battle mage, and I'm pretty sure thats what he was meant to be in the first place. Right now, he deals 10% more damage agaisnt people with spell lux pre-level 6, after he puts a point into his ult he gets an additional 30% and then he gets another 30% at levels 11 and 16, which means that at level 16, his Q will deal 100% more damage to targets with spell flux. They could change it to 15% pre-level 6, and for every point in his ult he would get 15% more, meaning, that at level 16 he would only deal 60% more damage agaisnt targets with spell flux. So basically it would be a 40% damage nerf, but he would get his shields back and I think that is a welcome change.

F**k, I've managed to make another block of text, but I think that just shoes, that I do care for this champion.
