If you think that Ryze is a burster, you've clearly never played him for long. He's amazing at keeping a steady stream of spells. That's not to say that he never, ever bursts, clearly he does, but his optimum damage output is stringing together combos of tons of spells. Up above is a wombocombo for him: "QEQWQRQEQWQ." Does that look like bursting to you? To me it looks like magical DPS. He can burst if he has to, but he's way better, I don't know, synergizing with his passive.
