LW is now great on Ez, you pay for flat AD (which you would do anyway) and get a godly passive in return.

I might switch my build to something more like:
dorans stack + boots -> LW or BT depending on how much armor they have -> survivability -> the one you didn't get
now that i think about it that's loci's panth item guide LOL (sans ghostblade) but LW is now good for both ez and panth because they both benefit more from the flat AD than aspd in most scenarios

like flat armpen (esp if you're running quints + marks) kicks in really hard really early but LW scales very well into lategame, however I never really considered it any time mid-early game because its aspd passive isn't what ezreal wants. However with the flat damage it is totally viable reasonably early.

so i go brutalizer first and then BF sword.

is a sheen worth it after that? For now i went new LW after that and didnt go sheen at all. I only have like 3 games with him for now, someone with more experience on the matter enlighten me.

Ezreal feels really good now. He's not insanely powerful like when Season 1 first came out but playing him feels very nice. I've thrown brutalizer out of my build and replaced it with Last Whisper.

do u play ranked? If you do when do you play ez? i mean i wanna play him on ranked but i find that often my team composition needs something else, and if your team needs a ranged dps... ppl will insult you by even saying your going ez....

i dont get the sheen, even with no Ad item you gain about 40 dmg on your Q, but loose at least 20 on your autoattack compared to brutalizer.
And it gets worse with items.

ez is not laughable anymore, he feels much more reasonable now that his extremely early game is not total shit and lasthitting is much more comfortable, and his attack scaling is no longer caster level lol

I mean, people will pick all kinds of heroes, as long as you play them well they will never get the chance to insult you after you start acing the other team =3

my thoughts on bruta and sheen atm

sheen: if you start mana crystal, its greatest benefits are its easy accessibility (860 gold to upgrade) and the insane regen from SoS (is almost like a free regen pendant with just mana crystal in lane); it makes for easier laning (in that you are harder to harass) but also makes your harass weaker (in that you have less damage on your q than if you opened dblade) unless you take advantage of the extra starting mana to pump out as many spells as possible before you b. Also, people seem to not notice the AP that sheen gives but it is always a nice boost (considering that w and e scale fairly well with the 25 i think ap that it gives?). And of course most obviously your burst damage is far superior, if you time your qwe or eqw or whatever your combo is so that each spell that isn't a q procs sheen for your next autoattack most other champions will lose an exchange. E -> other spells makes for very brutal harass especially if you had the money for a ward or two to make sure that jungler isn't gonna be on ur butt.

bruta: its nicest attribute is that its components are also very easy to buy (415 so cheep! huehue) and it scales fairly well into the midgame because extra flat arpen (esp if you're running marks + quints arpen) will only help your damage even more before they start stacking armor. of course getting the actual item combined costs 500 or so more than sheen (start with mana crystal) if you start dblade (i do not recommend starting longsword in almost any situation). In terms of what someone said about autoattacking, there are very few instances where autoattacks will do what your spells and junglers cannot; like, i highly doubt there is a situation where after casting qw and e that you and the opponent will sit against each other autoattacking until spell cds are up. There are the issues of creep aggro, potential ganks from jungle, and summoner spells that have to be taken into account.

atm though i think that triple dblade -> BT or LW is stronger than either of these openings even on ezreal because the stats that the dblade provide (HP, lifesteal, and flat AD) are all great stats to have for the mid to lategame and perform many of the same things that bruta and sheen do (lifesteal and hp for lanestaying power instead of SoS regen from sheen, and flat AD in the stead of bruta AD) while being just as easy to buy. the fact that dblade's AD has been buffed is actually better for ez's early game as he is a very pokey champion. in terms of pure damage output though, saving an autoattack battle, sheen does win out in dps, but dblade does give lifesteal and hp. I think that if you are good enough to kite with your spells sheen is viable but dblade certainly is the most comfortable looking and leaves the greatest margin of error. bruta just seems lackluster atm compared to LW (700 gold more expensive for more AD + 40% penetration) and ezreal cannot take 100% advantage of ghostblade because his mobility is already off the charts (compared to champions like pantheon for whom the extra speed is clutch in performing another stun etc).

I'd say this is a pretty good way to play Ezreal.

Yeah, instead of resurrecting a thread we don't need you could've put this in general.

Meh, i like resurrecting these champ threads. They provide a good opportunity to discuss champs that might not be as widely played, and exchange ideas. Plus its cool to see the evolution of the champs over time.

Any good Ez players get an early Black Cleaver? Seems pretty sick with him now, especially after a Bruta.
Odds.633, AM. Plat level currently. Would love more practice partners, add me, let's play!

Thread needs to be renamed... I totally went looking for an Ezreal thread before starting up the topic in general discussion and couldn't find it because I was looking for [Champion] Ezreal... Sigh.. I need to check out that link when I get home. I've been checking streams out when I can but never see ez being played.

Best way to play Ez is to always kill never die

Ghen's point is that we need a real [Champion] Ezreal thread, this OP does not qualify.
