Ryze used to be a classic AP carry, building glass cannon for tons of damage. Now he doesn't have as high burst damage, but it's compensated by the fact that he can build tanky with mana and still do crap loads of damage but more over time now, since his cooldowns got reduced, I believe, and he relies on his Q to deal damage, which has like like a 2 sec CD. He is basically an AP bruiser now.
