yeah, he is in a weird spot. the biggest problem is one ryze is suffering from. the fact that mana itemization in this game kinda sucks. i mean, really, all we have is the 3 sheen items, frozen heart, roa and the 2 ToG items. it used to be better, we had banshees and stuff like that, iirc, but now not really. its no wonder, too. almost nobody wants to get mana. only ap champions not named diana really have to fear running out of mana late game-ish, and those that have heavy mana problems, anivia and karthus, just get ToG. all the other ones just get mana regen as its more effective. in particular athenes. i would love to see some new items, as so far we barely got any new ones, and it would be nice to have a mana item among those. but i dont think theyll do that. hell, this is the only time i would say that dotas stat system is actually better.
