Ezreal or Kog'maw ?

[quote=MiamiHurricane][quote=Lugignaf] @CasterMaster, they're never going to give him CC. Ezreal himself has said so. They don't like giving someone with no CC some random CC and vise-versa. Imagine if Morde suddenly got a free slow on any of his skills. It doesn't make sense. Ez has team utility and while he isn't the best AD carry, it may be because he's a hybrid caster. Damage output is directly tied to his mana bar. Throw him mid lane and force people out of lane early. He's a much bigger force there than he is bot lane. Especially because he can push the lane from halfway across the map. [/quote] I've seen some pretty amazing Ezreals mid. I played against one who literally never failed to last-hit, rushed a wriggle's lantern, and then ignored everything I threw at him because of his sustain. I don't think either of us died in the laning phase, but he ended ahead by over 50 creeps. I wasn't even playing badly either.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]Back when it was the norm for AD carries mid, I played him there during free week, started Long sword and mana potion. Rushed manamune and played super aggressive. Needless to say, I didn't use smartcast back then and missed about 10% of my shots. I still won about 90% of my games.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]I just think AP Ez is probably better. The mid lane is a good spot for Ezreal in terms of the lane structure and the dynamic, and I think he scales better with AP but I'm not certain.[/quote]

[quote=example1013]AP Ez is the only Ez I ever consider a threat. Actually one game I fed an AP ez a couple kills cuz I did stupid things thinking he was AD ez and would do no damage. Then all of a sudden trueshot barrage for 1/3 my HP. Oops.[/quote]

[quote=MyRepublic]Have any of you ever seen a good Ez? If he gets fed then at end game every five seconds his name will be yelled by the announcer for getting another kill. He does no damage? Hahahaha, where did you ever get that idea? Not only does he destroy tanks but he has a 2 second cooldown on his nuke which does about 400 dmg. No damage? He can bring a full team to half health with his ult in a team fight then pick the rest off in a matter of seconds. I've 2v5'd with him against a team of all tanks with a Lee Sin and I destroyed them while he tanked. Seriously people think he's bad because no one knows how to use him or build him. It irks me. Then people try to blame me if we lose because "I doomed us by playing Ez". Then I just point to the scoreboard and damage output and they have to shut up. Plus if you build crit items on him then his auto attack does 800 dmg end game twice a second (three times with his passive charged). Maybe kog does more damage, but I find that Ez is one of those skill champs. If you're good with them you can do things with him that make people go wtf. I love myself some Kog maw, but Ez is my favorite champ.[/quote]

[quote=Darcurse]^Dude... space does help make ppl actually want to read your posts... btt: While everyone talks about one side or the other: Why no hybrid Ez? Skip out on AS/Crit, and start early with AD and add the AP later. Max CDR, enough mana. But actually HOW does AP Ez deal his dmg? Despite the Ulti I can't imagine him running around spamming his Q to fasten the CD on Flux while literally suiciding with an aggressive Shift abuse...?[/quote]

[quote=tehAsian]^There's a guide on hybrid ez [url=http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/sos-48899]here[/url]. It works pretty well :p Was at #2 after Booshido's guide a while back. AP Ez does his damage purely through pokes, the AoE on W, and his ult. E is used for escaping, I think. His Q actually does liek 700 with full build. It's pretty scary.[/quote]

[quote=Darcurse]Ah damn, totally forgot about Lich Bane there, makes more sense now. Anyway... I wouldn't recommend that build, pretty old, too.[/quote]

[quote=Rajhani][[kog'maw]] is fun, and you'll probably find an easier time carrying a game with him. But if you can master [[ezreal]], he's much more rewarding. He's harder to learn but his playstyle is so fun and you can still easily carry.[/quote]

[quote=iownedya]Kog does more damage. Build: [[Malady]] [[Berserker's Greaves]] [[Madred's Bloodrazor]] [[Wit's End]] [[Frozen Mallet]] [[Hextech Gunblade]][/quote]
