I have been playing on and off for about 7 years, I had been playing mostly for fun but am now going to start taking it more seriously and start playing competitively.

Ezreal is one of main main carries because when played right he is really fun to play, He is a good carry because of his poke and mobility throughout the whole game.

This build focuses on the use of Manamune & Archangel's Staff to increase your mana pool and increasing your damage through the items abilities.

-Also, i am new to making guides so any feedback (good or bad) will go a long way so please don't hesitate to message me.

Q: Mystic Shot
- When your ult is on cool-down use Mystic Shot as often as possible to reduce its cool-down. You can also hit jungle monsters.
- After recalling and buying a tear use your Mystic Shot to stack it while moving to bot-lane again.

W: Essence Flux
- Don't learn W for the first levels. W doesn't scale with Items and needs a lot of mana. So better skill Mystic Shot, Arcane Shift, Mystic Shot, Arcane Shift, Mystic Shot, R until Mystic Shot and Arcane Shift are maxed.
- You can buff yourself with your Essence Flux spell while jumping in the skill-shots direction with Arcane Shift or Flash. Combined with your passive you get a lot of attack-speed.
- You can nearly permanently buff your teammates with Essence Flux while hitting Mystic Shot as often as possible when your Essence Flux is on Cool-down. This is an important mechanic for drake/ baron fights or pushing towers and works better if you already have 30-40% cdr.

E: Arcane Shift
- Don't use Arcane Shift only to escape. Feel free to dodge some skill-shots or re-position yourself to land a better Mystic Shot. If there are no minions near to your enemy the damage of Arcane Shift isn't that bad too.
- You can dodge many Spells with your Arcane Shift because you move instantly after using it.


R: Trueshot Barrage
- You can just snipe your enemies with Trueshot Barrage when you know where they are. So upgrade your trinket into a blue one at level 9. Also avoid to hit Jungle monsters on the way to your target because the damage gets reduced for each hit.
- Feel free to use your ult for wave clear as the cool-down is so low that it will hardly ever hinder your performance in a team fight.
- If a squishy Target doesn't have any vision and is running straight in your direction when hiding in a brush, you can do a fast combination with Trueshot Barrage, Arcane Shift, Mystic Shot, Essence Flux, Auto attack to completely delete your enemy.

General:
- You can kite very well with Iceborn Gauntlet. Because your Mystic Shot triggers hit effects you can increase the Iceborn Gauntlet's slow with red buff. If an enemy is near to you anyway escape over walls with Arcane Shift.
- Auto attack before and after hit a Mystic Shot. Even if you miss your Mystic Shot you can trigger the Iceborn Gauntlet passive by auto attacking the enemy.

++ High Range
+ Low Cooldowns
+ Utility (Iceborn)
+ Escape
+ Cheap Itembuild (Tear, Gauntlet)
+ Strong mid/lategame
+ Snowball when ahead

*****

- Not a 'all in' champ
- 3 out of your 4 spells are skill-shots. If you have a bad day you won't deal a lot of damage.
- Bad against healers like Sona
- Not as useful as other ad carries when behind

- Everything squishy
- Champions without mobility like Kog'Maw Vel Koz
- Tanks without Gap closers and low ranged champs because of his kiting potential. For example Garen/ Nasus
- Junglers in early game. If botlane is warded its hard to gank an Ezreal. Champs like leesin or Kha'Zix have to focus other lanes.

- Healers like Sona because they just out-sustain your poke
- Hypercarry Lategame champs because Ezreal isnt really a 1v1 champ later in the game
- Hard CC like Vi/ Malphite ult which goes throw Ezreal's Arcane Shift
- Point and click spells which delete Ezreal ( Syndra, Veigar ult, Pantheon w)
- Kai'Sa seems strong against him too since both don't have wave-clear and her damage is a bit higher than Ezreals.

- More Poke. I like Sona Bard and Karma
- Everything that buffs your damage like Nami and Janna
- CC like Braum Leona Thresh is also fine.
In my opinion there is no "bad" support for Ezreal.
