How do you mean? I've barely touched any of the side lanes since my return.


The minion block issue continues to exist, but also they dont always drop aggro in a predictable fashion (particularly harmful for melee champions), so if you are against Ryze he gets to trade for free earlygame. Basically your option is to be ranged (and what ranged champion is going to punish/outscale/etc ryze when TP is basically mandatory?), be a good Irelia, or just be a herbivore (which Ryze is perfectly happy with).

Or be Riven and shit on him anyway.

I thought ryze vs riven was good for ryze?

Nowhere close.


Ryze vs Riven is a terror lane. Ryze can build up a gradual advantage but it will all vanish in a puff of smoke if you make a misstep. I can win that match-up but it's going to need my A-game, flash dodging Wind Slash, mad jukes, etc.

Don't see how a matchup can be considered good when you need to be on form as opposed to somebody who just needs to not fuck up hard.

By that reasoning, current and pre-meganerf Olaf was an good matchup for Riven.

I fucked up a question jeez, I'm relatively ignorant of ryze and only play him because meta and I despise riven so I don't understand either side. I normally pick irelia or rumble into riven.

Why is Garen's rank 1 ult cooldown so damn long? 160s is nuts for a single target ability like that. I would play him so much more if he ult CDs made sense.

Like if you put it next to Riven (110), Darius (120), Nasus (120), Zed (120), it is just bizarrely long.

I see this argument come up a lot where:

If players A and B both face roll then player A wins = A is favored.
If players A and B both play optimally then player B wins = B is favored.

Then people start making claims about team comps, item builds and soon enough player C is camping a lane and D can't farm = GG

This is just an observation that I find amusing while I lurk these forums

If it's CD was any shorter he would be ridiculously snowbally.

Dying to his ult like one time is enough to throw the lane to him for good pretty much

How bad do you guys think the Q nerf to Ryze on the PBE will hurt him? 60/85/110/135/160 => 40/60/80/100/120

Debating on picking up an AP top but I don't want to drop the IP on the glyph set if he's gonna be poop and be most of my way to somebody like Rumble.

is that damage change for reals? holy shit that's a pretty sizeable chunk. auto attacks do more damage than his Q at level 1 I bet.


Q lvl 1 now is already retarded mana inefficient lol..

Thanks guys didn't expect so much response. Ill try to address questions later. But the big things I can recall from memory were:

*Have a niche
*Have a consistent stream schedule
*Be good at league (I'm low plat atm but I hit diamond 5 last season and I plan to do it again)
*Have a aesthetically pleasing stream (ATM I have got a webcam and nothing else)
EDIT Other things people recommended
*Be your self (I got this down In fact I can only be me.)


Random Aside: I have also been compiling replays that I wanna make a montage out of eventually

It's a little more than that -- Ryze can harass you with Q constantly which doesn't draw minion aggro, and his W is very strong 1v1 as a disengage. He suffers greatly when he can't self-peel with W (see, e.g., Aatrox / Jarvan IV).

Yes, no aggro on spells is what makes it hard for a start, but I think its the crazy minion stuff that makes him nearly impossible to deal with as shyvana, jax, udyr, etc.

Yeah, minions are nuts right now. I've had them flow me into unwarded brushes, and any lane aggression on a melee gets you flat out dead. Like straight up you'll have the caster minions chase you past your melee minions when you auto attack your lane opponent.

Hard Fucks melees in lane against ranged champs, cuz they can spam trade on you with spells for free, and when you retaliate you take huge minion damage and your lane gets hard pushing.

So dumb.

I think having really well made montage clips like Shake did, can do a lot to get your name out there. (rip shake).

Ryze v Riven is like a Kayle v Darius matchup, where you are theoretically favored but you fuck up just one little bit and it is all over. It's better to describe the matchup along two axes: which champ is favored, and how volatile the matchup is.

And you know, auto attacking just serves yourself up on a plate for the enemy jungle.

It's hard for me to take auto attacks out of my reading habits, lol. I keep doing it do, all inning and then losing to like 400 creep damage.

I'm too old to change my habits like that man.

Well, it's something you have to keep in mind and be ready for. I love (in the loose sense of the word) when people gank mid cuz I generally trust myself not to die more than I'll trust my team not to die.
