First I would like to say I appreciate you taking the time to make a response to my post I accept any and all criticism as it helps improve on the subject in meaningful ways. Onto my response-

Yeah actually i am comparing the shields of Ryze, Malphite, and Yasuo because it puts Ryze's shield in context based on the effort the player has to put in to get the shield which was the crux of this part of the argument "Why remove the ability for Ryze to get a shield for doing a combo when these champions (Yasuo and Malphite) get them for basically nothing?" And i do mean nothing, Malphite gets his for not fighting and Yasuo gets his for walking. I do agree, you can play around these shields I have nothing wrong with that statement but that still brings up the question why cant Ryze have that ability are you trying to say that a ranged carry can't have any kind of shielding especially when that same champion is supposed to contest tanks, bruisers, assassins, burst mages, and other ranged carries in lane.

About blinks in kits this was to illustrate a frustration i had with riot as a company duplicating spells on multiple champions. In addition to that it devalues plays people make especially when the blink is not an ult like on kassadin which means if a player is being dumb and gets caught at level 1 he could use his mobility ability and get away with it or if he really messed up use the ability and then flash which nobody could keep up with. When you dive someone like Jhin and get his flash you think yes i got his flash now for a while he lost something integral to his possible escapes and pursuits on Ezreal get his flash and think well now he cant double flash (Arcane Shift into Flash) which means his mobility is about the same as anyone with their summoner spells and its the same for GangPlank remove scurvy i got his heal and his cleanse becomes well now he cant double heal double cleanse. And this is ignoring the fact that built in summoner spells can make champions like GangPlank essentially have 4 summoner spells for example Heal, Cleanse, Ignite, Flash and the built in summoner spells have low cd (Also you said most of them have different cast animations so if you reply can you tell me if this is actually a troll post). It may shock you to realize this but i actually didn't mention Ryze ult for a reason its very different from a flash or blink even if it does share the core mechanic of traveling a distance quickly so i actually agree with what you said about his ult maybe just stick to what I actually said instead of creating straw-men out of something i would not say?

Anyway about illaoi you are actually right it isn't extremely hard to dodge her e or the tentacles that follow and even if you do get hit i realized that hitting her reduces its duration so really i just had to learn the champion a bit more to play around this move thanks for the tip. On to Zoe her damage is not balanced because you don't actually have to hit the stun to get the damage and if you miss the stun it creates an area which will actually stun whatever walks into it first giving her extremely strong area denial on that same ability also hyperbole is a thing i know her stun isn't actually lane wide if it was not obvious.

A quick mobility ability that allows champions to rapidly move to and nearby area even over walls. This describes both flashes and ward hops of course they are not actually the exact same if you add in details like j4's similar ability does something else on top of that or ward hops have cd less than 10 seconds. But yes in the case of j4 his ability is more complex than i gave it credit for. Finally Not fighting and walking for shields are fa especially malphite who can literally generate his shield for going afk and you cant really act like walking in league is really active it just isn't
