Voidstaff is a stupid item to buy on Ryze since you got more or less 10Mpen from runes, 20Mpen from shoes...

Then you buy Abyssal and get another 20Mpen

That makes 50Mpen (that most tanky sustain dmg AP champ have in their build ex. Swain ect).

But you also got MR reduction from E so you get extra 24Mpen from it = 74Mpen...

Since most carry's have like 50-80 at most you deal true dmg (or even more since i dont remeber if it will magnify the dmg).

Even bruisers on normal games have 100-130MR (exept very late game full build when they then have like 150-200MR). So instead of going flat Mpen from Abyssal, when you go Voidstaff you reduce your dmg to squishys (carry's) becasue flat Mpen is counted first, then the % one. But you also are way more squishy.

And im not talking about your Abyssal aura that gives your other AP's in team a dmg buff.

Ryze just got to much flam Mpen with items to go Voidstaff (only in situational cases you could use a Voidstaff)
