Ryze Counters

[quote=Luther3000][quote=PsiGuard] [quote=Luther3000] [quote=PsiGuard] You don't have to trade with Morgana. She relies entirely on one skillshot with a long cooldown that can be blocked by minions to do damage. Ryze should be able to crack her shield and get some damage on her for free, especially with blue buff. [/quote] This is true but bear in mind Morgana can simply E the creep wave without ever having to walk into Ryze's range. [/quote] I think you mean W. Minions don't do very much magic damage :P. [/quote] Shh.[/quote]

[quote=Vitigam]Ryze doesn't counter Morgana. True, You can't stop Morgana from farming, early game it will be tough. But, as soon as Ryze gets his tanky items, Morg won't be able to stop him. I do think Ryze would win lane against [[Kennen]] though, what do you guys think? And what do you guys think about [[Vladimir]] ? I went solo top against him with [[Ryze]]. In lane phase, he totally out-farmed me, but during team-fights, [[Ryze]] was much more dangerous.[/quote]

[/quote] He wins against Kennen because of his natural want to build MR. [[Banshee's Veil]], and Kennen will have a hard time stunning him. Vlad is all about sustain and poke. I'm pretty sure that he's the most sustained mage in the game, just for the fact that he can [[Transfusion]] off of minons all day. Like Ryze, he builds pretty bulky, or at least is bulky from his passive, so he doesn't die easily. He is more of a 1v1 mage (in my experience), mainly because he doesn't have a whole ton of AoE, nor does he have a long string of nukes like Ryze. His [[Hemoplague]] is pretty dangerous though.[/quote]

[quote=Klausenheim][quote=Lugignaf] Something I completely forgot. Yes your passive will be a great tool for Countering him. Yes Saplings are a great harassing move. [b]If you time it right[/b] you can avoid all damage from Ryze's Q with [[Twisted advance]] as it makes you untargetable. If you let it "hit you" while you're a pile of energy, you will take no damage. It'll also work like that with AoE like [[Absolute zero]] or [[requiem]]. [/quote] Yes indeed, I have dodged many a death by timing [[Twisted Advance]] correctly. One more leaf in the Tree mans branches.[/quote]

[/quote] Agreed, [[Ryze]] is a hard lane against [[Kennen]]. [[Vladimir]] is pretty strong in lane, but starts to fall in team-fights.[/quote]

[quote=BarbJ]I had a hard time playing as Ryze the other day against a Gragas. Generally, when Ryze has no minions to help him last hit, it gets tricky. Since Gragas can clear the waves with a single barrel at level 9 or so (level 7 with the right AP), Ryze won't be able to get all the cs he needs. Maybe not a counter, but a hard lane- at least for me. I'm not the best Ryze.[/quote]
