Ezreal is a ranged physical damage carry who has very strong poke and burst potentinal. Unlike most AD Carries, Ezreal relies on his abilities more then his auto-attacks. Does that mean to never auto-attack? Absolutely not, it just means that your abilities (primarally Mystic Shot) will be doing more overall damage but AA's do deal a very large amount of sustained DPS. He is an overall very strong pick and has the highest win percentage of all ranged AD's due to his overall usefulness.

Quick and Simple Starting Items or Core Items Attack Damage Items Defensive Items Situational Items Synergies and Counters Ezreal is strong against: Ezreal gets countered by: Ezreal is strong with: Summoner Spells Flash is the only summoner spell that you cannot play without. Flash is so powerful and can just do countless things and is not replacable. Your second summoner spell could vary though. Take Ignite if you plan on playing aggressive or take Heal if you plan on playing defensive. I would take Cleanse if your up against a C heavy team or you have a Leona or Blitzcrank in your lane. Runes This is very standard for most AD's. The attack damage will allow you to last hit and trade better and the flat armour and MR will make you quite durable. Very simple for most AD's and the common setup in the current meta right now. greater mark of desolation Not too big of a difference. MR scaling and flat MR arent too big of a difference but because you will most likley be playing aggressive in lane, flat MR is better for the laning phase but its personal prefrence. The armour pen marks allow you to deal more damage to champions but will not help in your last hitting. Once again its all personal preferance. Masteries For masteries I take 21/2/7. This may seem a little strange and if you want, you can take 21/0/9 or 21/9/0 and you wont notice too big of a difference. I find 4 armor more useful then slightly longer buff duration but its all personal preferance. If you have fear of being bursted down early game, take 21/9/0.
