^^ please don't advertise that's annoying. Great guide the only thing is that i think clarity is a huge waste because it might help once or twice exhaust is way better for those 1v1's mid or for shutting down their carry in a fight.Great guide still
Are you referring to me in my guide or Randomez?
But a huge thanks for the rest of your comment, I'm glad when someone else is glad.
Yeah I know Exhaust can help you so many times, especially dueling and in teamfights. But in teamfights, someone else often have Exhaust aswell to shoot their carry down for 3 sec. But when laning I often find myself pretty low on mana, if the pair I'm meeting harass alot and I have to use my mystic shot to farm or poke back. And when the time occurs that a big or small battle starts and I'm low on mana, I'm not much of a help, that's when you need Clarity. It has helped me and my teammates many many times.
I saw your guide and you have some very good points. I am here to give you advice coming from a player that has mained Ezreal for a long time.
First: I don't recommend Ionian Boots of Lucidity because Ezreal's cooldowns are already pretty low. Considering Ezreal is AD in my opinion (and by the looks of it he is AD for you as well) you should get Berserker's Grieves. You as an AD can't rely only on Mystic Shot and other spells. It's the same as building Kat AD just for her Ultimate. Therefore Berserker's Grieves and a Phantom Dancer after the Infinity Edge can help a lot.
First of, thanks! :)
Yeah, they (his cooldowns) are kinda low, but not as low as you want them to be. Because just as ad Ez isn't that strong, he really needs his abilities, especially his Mystic Shot because it works so well with Sheen and then later with Trinity Force and with the cooldown boots and cooldown runes you're getting that CDR that you'll need to use it every 2 seconds, perfect for the cooldown on Sheen's cooldown. But that's only my opinion.
In this case we are not alike either, but I just think it's a matter of playstyle. I think that Trinity Force helps the whole Ezreal out so much, in compare with Bloodthirster that helps his Mystic Shot and auto-attack, but as you say it has a great amount of damage, plus the great lifesteal. I shall try it out and come back to you. Thanks for the advice anyhow.

Trinity Force is indeed a fantastic item for Ezreal. However it is not 100% needed and I myself played most of my games not getting it. After the Phantom Dancer I recommended you can get the Trinity Force but I prefer Bloodthirster beacause of the Damage and Lifesteal.
About Runes: I think your Quintessences should be Attack Damage. You will not need more Armor Penetration and if you do need the APen just get a Last Whisper. Your Glyphs in my opinion should be MRes. However that is for me. I go mid when I play Ezreal, where you most of the time find Casters, meaning MRes comes in handy. Sometimes they stack MRes as well thinking they are up with a Caster as well. However if you are more of laning you should get other Glyphs depending on yourself. But something other than CD Reduction beacause, as I stated before, Ezreal's Cooldowns are low enough.
Btw Do check out my Ezreal guide if u have time and leave a comment :D
