Champion Update Preview: Kassadin, Ryze & more!

While I can definitely get behind the idea that Ryze's 100% point and click mage dude nature usually means that enemies within a certain range of him might as well just be taking X amount of damage every second, I'm a little unsure about giving him skillshots, since it feels to me that '100% point and click mage dude' is a substantial part of his identity by now. I'm sure we've all seen the comments and posts where people have bashed Ryze for being too easy, which is testament to that reputation.

As far as thematics go, I've personally always imagined Ryze as completely insufferable and would have absolutely zero problems if they pushed his VO further down that route, lol. Never really had much of an impression of him lore-wise outside of 'wishes to study the deepest intricacies of magic'.
