I think the semi-reward for building mana will always be there in Ryze because of his "machine gun mage" niche, and Riot seems hesitant to give casters like Ryze and Cassiopeia a better resource - since at the moment you need to build more mana than the opponent has health to actually function on these champions, but Cassiopeia just ends up feeling weak due to how long she delays damage purchases.
