My Ezreal Build and I need your thoughts

Well, I just got into Ezreal when I purchased his ultimate skin: Pulsefire Ezreal.

And this is the buildpath I use in most of my games.

I start with Dorans Blade of course, and I try too keep in lane untill I have at least 1700 gold. I buy the Tear of the Goddess and the "Ionian Boots of Lucidity" for the early game cooldown reduction. After that I rush the Manamune, for the passive, and so my autoattacks also stack it. Then I buy a Trinity Force, the passive works great on your Q and you benefit from every stat. Because you lack a little damage, and lifesteal, I buy an Essence Reaver. I don't think it is a very good item, but in this build it does. You can leave your Muramana active, and the passive from this item helps you to keep your mana up. Because you do not have an attack speed item, except for the zeal in the Trinity Force, I choose to buy a Zephyr. It give you all you need: attack damage, which is always good. 50% attack speed, this is the main reason I buy this item, and of course the movement speed and the cooldown reduction help you a lot. And to top it of, when you get into lategame, I buy an Infinity Edge.

Of course, when the enemy team has a fed Zed, I buy a Mercurial Scimitar, or when they have 2-3 (semi)tanks, I buy a Last Whisperer.

But in most of my games I follow this path, would you prefer these items, or do you hate this build?

Please let me know!

I feel like tear+ionian as your first two items are going to make you very weak in lane, and also might be hard to cs with. I also feel like the entire point of a blue build is to get IBG, so you get something for losing the damage potential of a standard ADC build. I feel a lot of Ezreal players undervalue his autoattacks and only think about their Q when they build.

Personally, I'd buy sheen and/or a BF sword item first after completing tear (if you want to go tear). I'd still get Ionian boots, just a bit later is all. For the AD item, you could get Essence Reaver, but this might be mana overkill with the tear. IE could also be the AD item. I'd try to avoid finishing manamune until it was ready to turn into muramana, and would instead prioritize IBG. Also, especially in this tank meta, I'd want to get a BoRK, which could be your attack speed item.
