Getting a feeder or dc in a promo game >.<

You realize 3 out of 4 of Ezreal's abilities are frieken skillshots right? If you cant click left to dodge his Q/W/R then that means you just suck, its not the champion. I haven't had any problem with ezreal, mid or adc.

Believe it or not the dude is completely reliant on the PLAYER'S skill, if you sucked with Ezreal before Runeglaive, you will still suck with ezreal after Runeglaive. ---ergo hes balanced.

Um... are you sure you replied to the right thread?

i have a better idea then nerfing items...nerf ez...oh but wait rito would never touch their golden boy

Ariel the CruelJul 13, 201535 votes

LeeSin Hello

DivewingJul 13, 20153 votes

Ah yes however, if he was talking a literal golden boy, then Ezreal is indeed Rito's golden boy

AnidanJul 13, 20153 votes

Ezreal has been nerfed so many times. Just... so many times.

SpecterVonBarenJul 13, 20157 votes

I think he's just talking about how Ez is blonde.

AnidanJul 14, 20153 votes

Don't mind my stupidity, then.

A Miss FortuneJul 13, 20152 votes

I think last time Riot tried to nerf Lee Sin I think that Cancer, I mean Reddit flipped out and demanded he was untouched.

Ariel the CruelJul 13, 20151 votes

It wasn't just Reddit.

Joe DreddJul 13, 20154 votes

Except they nerfed him.

GorgiolioJul 13, 201510 votes

They pulled a whole rework and trashed it due to community backlash. They didn't let the community influence reworks, changes, and nerfs for anyone else. Doesn't make any sense.

Joe DreddJul 13, 20156 votes

They still implemented parts of the rework. Also, when that happened, the non-stupid part of the community was asking riot. The ones that actually know what they're talking about. And honestly I wouldn't listen to this community for shit either way. This is the community that thought J4 was worse than lee a couple months ago.

A Miss FortuneJul 13, 20151 votes

I don't even think Jarvan was overpowered, he was just able to jungle well unlike most of the junglers at the time.

Joe DreddJul 13, 20151 votes

The problem is that it feels like half of the community mains Lee Sin, and no matter how balanced a rework is, they'd rather see him nerfed in other ways to preserve the playstyle they've loved through his years.

I know the G&P community seems to hate Riven, but if there was a way to nerf her numbers without changing her kit EVERY Riven main would want that more than any rework that could be proposed for her, simply because they've played the champion for such a long time and don't want to have all that learning go into the garbage with 1 patch.

TotalJerkJul 13, 20152 votes

Reminder that Lee Sin has been nerfed 10 times since his release.

junglerboy16Jul 13, 20154 votes

meanwhile irelia has only been nerfed 7 times (2 of which were stat nerfs that have been reverted).

Better nerf Irelia am I right?

MeatwickJul 14, 20151 votes

They can't nerf Ez, they already have a scapegoat. Irelia item 3070

RikariJul 14, 20151 votes

who is this "easy" ?

Cloud PotatoJul 13, 20152 votes

Ezreal is just a problem champion himself. Has he ever been in a state where he wasn't dominant because of an item or barely seen?

Yes. During the Reign of Graves in Season 4 Ezreal was borderline troll pick as he was fucking useless

Ariel the CruelJul 13, 20151 votes

He wasn't "useless". Graves just never let him survive lane phase.

. . . Or anyone else for that matter.

MohawkBirdJul 13, 20152 votes

I guess we can say. . . Ezreal was a dead man walking.

ArveanorJul 13, 20156 votes

I think you may have misread.... The "Or barely seen" part is the key here. He's saying that ezreal is either broken by an item, or is worthless. Or in your words, "fucking useless".

"reading comprehension"

Slamurai JackJul 13, 20151 votes

Which jungle item did he get nerfed last season? Pretty sure they had already gutted Lizard by the start of season 4.

Idk, Im sure he somehow got something nerfed

If it's not a jungle item, it's usually a sheen item

Diananmen SquareJul 13, 20153 votes

Spirit of the Lizard Elder, probably.

IceKingChernobogJul 13, 20152 votes

It was the spirit of the elder lizard

Jungle Lux GodJul 13, 20151 votes

In season 4?

He got it nerfed in Season 3, I'm not sure about season 4.

KoldheartedjspJul 13, 20151 votes

Ez got iceborn nerfed

OrangesilkJul 13, 20155 votes

Feral flare Ez too stronk.

DivewingJul 13, 20151 votes

I thought it was Honour Death and Hangovers smh

Ariel the CruelJul 13, 20151 votes

Yorik's ult breaking something. Pretty sure it holds the record for "breaking thing".

OrangesilkJul 13, 20151 votes

Eh, Azirs wall is up there too, it's only been much more short lived. So far it has:

Broken Jayces gate.

Broken Mordes Ghost.

Broken Yoricks ult.

Broken turrets.

Broken Dragon.

And broken a plethora of invisible-minion-based abilities out of sheer shitty coding.

Zair UmbrasJul 13, 20151 votes

What..? He's not even the sole reason the this jungle item or Elder Lizard got nerfed... lol. Elder Lizard had Evelynn to thank, really. lol. Her Q was much more OP with it. The Runeglaive has a lot of issues with making Evelynn, again, over the top powerful, Diana is now ungodly strong in the jungle (Moreso than usual), Fizz can lane with the item and roll his face on his keyboard because it's got such high base damage, plus turns the AD ratio on his Q (The 100% of his AD part) into magic damage... I mean, Ez is the only one you see in LCS, sure, but that doesn't mean he's the only one abusing the ever living crap out of it. We've got a LOT of offenders this time around.
