You have an 1100 range AoE slow that does significant damage to the first target you hit. You can kite entire teams with that build, the IBG procs can set up really easy skill shots for your mage, IBG procs work as both an aid to help your team initiate fights and helps disengage bad fights. Ezreal with that build does less damage than a standard build but with that build Ezreal becomes this super annoying utility bot. edit: You don't want to fight that much early game unless the fight is significantly favored for you. Like if your jungler comes to gank bot while the enemy jungler is ganking mid/top. You mostly just farm up and only fight the enemy if they make a huge blunder. Generally you rush tear and then go into a damage item before rushing IBG (BT is a good choice but it delays your IBG a lot, some people were going Elder Lizard so you can have true damage poke and true damage IBG AoE but I haven't done Elder Lizard ever so I can't tell you if it's good). edit2: I also don't really like that build. I think Ezreal is still fine going BT->Trinity->LW->w/e. I'd rather just play an ADC when I'm playing the ADC role. | ||

Wish that change had been made 3 months ago. Why do you wish this? You're not magically going to be in a higher division just because they changed their LP formulae (which, above all else, will converge to your MMR no matter what) | ||

Getting them early with a lead allows you to utilize your poke and utility to further zone out enemies and set up fights so you end up further ahead. If you're behind, going for this build basically means you're doing no damage though. | ||

Once you've invested into tear you're kind of stuck on that build. I don't think tear is really necessary though and I think you could just build standard ADC stuff and then pick up an IBG later on if you really want that utility (Ez doesn't have mana issues, especially if you're adding all that mana from IBG, you'd just have to make sure you don't buy a Trinity Force if you think there's any chance of you going IBG at some point). | ||

YOUR ELO IS WHATEVER JESUS THINKS IT SHOULD BE PRAY TO GOD EVERY NIGHT FOR HIM TO RAISE YOUR ELO OR PRAY TO FROGGEN WHATEVER WORKS It converges to your true elo a LOT faster than people think it does though. but it will fluctuate a certain amount until you reach infinity however people think true elo is some kind of thing you're born with when you can very easily improve even if its just playing your best champions | ||

Also yes, I can almost guarantee that based on the last few months of my ranked games, if that change had been in earlier I'd have the same MMR but be 1 division higher. Or tier? Rank? What do we call the 5-4-3-2-1's? | ||

Its the only mana/utility Ez that makes sense because he doesn't need to be able to 2v2 before all his items are done(which he's unable to do unless way fed). I personally have no clue why people run it bot. You can stack tear pretty fast, for example in an ARAM my Jayce stacked it by 12 minutes and Ezreal can do the same especially if he gets a blue. . | ||

urgots often used here but he's more of a front line guy has much less range to poke with | ||
