Lissandra vs Ryze

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Lissandra is a control mage who wants to punish Ryze's short range by locking him down with W and R.
Manage lane pressure to deny Ryze safe scaling and force him into risky trades where you can capitalize.

Trading pattern

Trade when Ryze's W is on cooldown to reduce his root threat.
Use W to punish Ryze when he tries to enter your range for Ryze W or E.
Use E plus R only if you have jungle or team follow-up to ensure lockdown and avoid being punished.

Danger windows

Ryze is dangerous when he has mana and cooldowns to cycle Ryze E and Ryze Q repeatedly.
Respect Ryze W root as it enables his follow-up damage.
Avoid using E forward without follow-up or when R is down, as Ryze can punish your engage.

Early game

Use Q to farm safely and poke Ryze when he steps up to cast Ryze E.
Hold W to root Ryze when he tries to engage with Ryze W or close distance.
Avoid extended trades without R ready, as Ryze can out-rotate spells if you overcommit.

Power spikes

Level 6 R is your major spike to lock Ryze down or self-peel.
First completed AP or utility item increases your control and damage threat.
Respect Ryze's first mana/AP item spike and his level 6 Ryze R for map plays, as it boosts his sustained damage and roaming potential.

Win conditions

Control short-range trades by layering your crowd control and punishing Ryze when he tries to engage.
Deny Ryze safe scaling by forcing him to use mana defensively and punishing cooldowns.
Create reliable lockdown setups with E flanks and R to enable ganks and teamfight advantage.

Tip: For Lissandra vs Ryze, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
