Ezreal Build Guide by Anakyra

Introduction

Hi everyone, I'm Cartøøn and here is my guide for Ezreal, an original carry who can be played like an AD carry or an AP caster, in this guide I will focus on an AD Ezreal. Feel free to give me some feedbacks or some suggestions.

First of all, I do not recommend for new players, since 3 of his abilities are skillshots, it could be very hard to a new player to master him.
If you are an experienced player and you're looking for an AD carry with an original gameplay, Ezreal is for you.

Pros / Cons

Pros + Nice burst early game + Free Flash with Arcane Shift + Mystic Shot got a great range + Can take advantage in 1v1 with Essence Flux + Trueshot Barrage can be used in many ways + He can kite very well

Cons - He is squishy and vulnerable to CC - Take a bit of time to get used to his skills - Can be a bit hard to master - His Q is spammable so if you don't pay attention it can leave you out of mana quite fast early game - No Crowd-Control

Offensive Tree Summoner's Wrath : To get the bonus while Ignite is on cooldown. Alacrity : Some extra atk speed, useful to unlock Weapon Expertise Deadliness : More atk damage per lvl, useful to unlock Lethality Weapon Expertise : You must take this, it takes off 10% of your enemy's armor, a must have for any AD carry. Lethality : Let your critical hits be even more critical. Vampirism : A bit more sustain to stay longer on your lane. Sunder : Even more ArmPen, can help you if you took Greater Mark of Attack Damage, or let you get more ArmPen if you took Greater Mark of Desolation Executioner : Nice to get more easily your last hits, or taking down a low hp enemy.

Defensive Tree Resistance / Hardiness : To be able to exchange better and stay longer on your lane. Durability : Give a nice HP boost at level 18. Veteran's Scars : Like a free Greater Quintessence of Health, nice for Ezreal and his low base HP.

Summoner Spells

For Ezreal i recommend these summoner spells :

Flash : The currently most used summoner spell, can be used defensively or offensively, to finish a runner, positioning yourself, jumping throught a wall, dodge a skill. Fits good with Ezreal's high mobility.

Ignite : Deals true damage, ignoring armor and magic resist, can be used to adding damage to your burst, finish a runner, helping you in a 1v1 fight, maybe your enemy won't even notice it, or leaving an enemy without any healing options.

Heal : Can be used to save yourself or a teammate, earning a kill if someone try to towerdive you, can reverse a teamfight, but never use it if you're under Ignite.

Exhaust : Can be used to cancel the enemy AD carry, win a 1v1, help you chasing someone or help you if you're getting chased, could be leaved to your support.

Abilities

SPACE

Rising Spell Force : This innate is a great attack speed steroid, each time one of your ability hits an enemy, it increase your attack speed by 10%, it can stack 5 times. Use Trueshot Barrage to engage a teamfight and stack Rising Spell Force.

SPACE

Mystic Shot (Q) : It's your main skill when playing an AD Ezreal, it got a low cooldown, a low manacost, an 1.0 AD Scaling, proc on-hit effects like Sheen and LifeSteal and a long range, what else ?

• Mystic Shot resets auto attack timer, so try to do it just after an auto attack to do more damage.
  
• You can use Mystic Shot to last hit 2 minions at the same time, just land an auto attack on the farthest minion and a Mystic Shot on the closer.
  
• Mystic Shot can be used to check a brush, just land it in the brush and check if you earned a stack of Rising Spell Force.
