Ezreal buffs.
I know there were some changes planned for Ezreal on PBE a while ago, but I feel they still would not help him recover from being what probably the worst AD in the game currently. I was talking with My 
maining friend, and we came up with some possible changes that could help make him a little better in general for this meta, since tanks are really never going anywhere. He already has a incredibly weak early game, and these changes will help with that, but they will also enforce a strong mid-late/late game.
-
Q or Mystic Shot: Mana cost changed to 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40. Cooldown also changed to 6 / 5.5 / 5 / 4.5 / 4 seconds per rank. This is to lessen the early mana burden pre-6.
-
W or Essence Flux: add and attack speed for the half the amount to enemies hit, so 10% - 20% based on level, for half the duration (2.5 seconds). The reason we thought this could be interesting is we have not seen a mechanic like this on an AD before, and could offer some unique power specifically against AS reliant match ups.
-
E or Arcane shift: Damage scaling changed to 75 / 100 / 125 / 150 / 175 (+50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90% total AD)(+ 75% AP) magic damage, and is treated as a modified basic attack. Now applies on-hit effects as well as spell effects, and prioritizes enemies who would die to the attack, followed by the nearest target (prioritizing champions). Cooldown also changed to 17 / 16 / 15 / 14 / 13. This change is to enforce Ezreal's scaling with more traditional AD items like lifesteal and crit, though still not reliant on those stats.
-
R or Trueshot Barrage: Reduce the base damage, something like 205 / 250 / 295 (+130 Bonus AD)(+90% AP)(JUST TENTATIVE), but now deals true damage that does not reduce with enemies hit. This would help
keep relevant as a tank softer with initial team fight engage or to finish them off, as well as still being a great wave clearer.
