Ah you're one of those "It's not the champion, it's the player" types. Sure there are some bad new Ryze players, who don't even know what to build and what runes/masteries to take, but if they read a quick guide and play a few games, they're almost near his skill ceiling, which along with his consistent power and hard counterability makes him popular in ranked games. He's good against both ad and ap mids, because he survives everyone's burst, and if the lane is tough, he just farms with his catalyst and spellvamp ult because he outscales almost everyone. He's so cheap that almost noone ever says "wp" or "honor Ryze" because everyone knows he's just a faceroller.
