I had just hoped that I'd get my main back when I saw his popularity rising after his passive buff. I almost exclusively played him for like 2 seasons and was ready to drop nasus without looking back for a second just to have my hopes shattered.
I still have the muscle memory for all the old ryze combos(even after a season or so of not playing him) and know all there was to know about him, but it doesn't matter anymore.
The new ryze isn't even flexible enough to punish someone who is out of position adequatly and melees can pretty much freefarm as long as they stay behind a minion.
The point of his old q was that while the damage of a single q wasn't that great, it started to matter after hitting 3 or 4 qs. with the new ryze, the damage of a single is still not good, but you don't really have a way to compensate if the enemy has half a brain.
now you have relatively short windows of opportunity that are predictable, but the problem of the old ryze, getting in range, still remains and thus, all you have to do is to stay back for a couple of seconds and you shouldn't take any significant damage.
I know that maxing w would help with some of this, but that would mean completly giving up having significant poke in lane in favor of being bursty every 10-20ish seconds while being used to have both things readily available at any time.

Just had the pleasure of supporting a
Varus who went for the amazing double
B. F. Sword into
Essence Reaver rush build and unfortunately for me (and our team), his build was not the worst part about him.




If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.
So I go 15/1 in a ranked match, some guy friends me to duo afterwards. We win the next game but lose the third because those things happen.
He instantly unfriended without a word, I called him out on it (5/9 was not the worst score on the team by far lol) but no response.
Some people, man. The lesson here, kick those thirsty *****es to the curb because they're only after your elo (and I'm only gold V, I can't imagine the **** diamonds+ deal with)

I was playing a ranked after a while - Im sure you read it - and then this happens.
Jesus, no. I was fine against Renek top after 1-2 ganks. But bot lane lost the whole time. I don't know you can die so often in the early game. Did they towerdive or what?
Meanwhile I'm scared from rankeds. Jesus...

My girlfriend and I were in a one-hour long match that almost caused our computers to go out the window.
Our team had a hard to grouping for objectives (zero neutral objectives) so we fell far behind despite our scores. My girlfriend (Ashe) carried our last fight in our base. We managed to kill 3/5 and ran to their base to take out their Nexus towers. We fought again and GangPlank was the lone survivor. All towers were down and all he had to do was hit the Nexus. We all watched as he started running around and hitting minions. We kept pinging the Nexus, but he ignored. Their Graves and Heimer came up, killed him for the ace and proceeded to march down to take our exposed Nexus.
GP kept saying he didn't understand why we were all mad at him. He was obviously trolling. And as a result, I lost my series.
Other team said they were going to honor GP for his performance.
