Noxus Ryze positioning

A starting board for Noxus Ryze . Drag units to adjust it, switch to the anti-assassin layout when the lobby has divers, and copy the Team Planner code into the TFT client.

  • Corner Ryze on the back line and put Taric in front of it.
  • Split Ryze and Azir across the back line so a single area spell can't hit both.
  • Sylas , Shyvana, and Renekton hold the front line — put the tankiest one opposite the enemy carry.
  • Against assassins, step your carries up one row and leave Darius and Renekton in the back corners as bait.
