Revert ezreal or make him an actual adc in more ways than just hit Q 4Head

Main issue with ur favorite e-boy is that he plays more like an apc also known as ap damage carry than he does adc in every way. Reason for this is how riot made his W and also how they balanced around it also the fact that his Qs count as autos. Ezreal does not have to auto attack at all which is proven by tons of lcs games there ezreals all do is hit their w+q the W which isnt really a good skillshot in the sense that it goes through minions. Even in soloque games u rarely see an ezreal having to auto except of course he hits W and needs auto for last hit which is rare.

Watch good ezreals back in the day was [zombie-nunu-hearts] it felt like u watched a player who actually had to auto attack which the current ezreal does not have to do at all. But but i have to auto attack to take cs. Yeah sorry u have to auto attack while last hitting sometimes or when u get a W on ur opponent in lane. After lane however alot of that just disappear and u become a cannon that shoots qs and ws as u stack ur double tear build which is a nice fun and interactive build btw.

Now days its just another ezreal player u dont really see much of a difference except of course that they hit a q more than the next player or shoots a smurfing ult down a lane to secure a kill.

His new playstyle is more satisfying but requires a lot less of u as a player imo. Which is what old ezreal gave more of. U could feel when u met an ezreal that knew how to play with his qs and auto attacks but these days all they do is w+qs and nothing else oh wait an ult when its on cd.

I mean they nailed the difficulty on him since hes pretty ez to play. [sg-miss-fortune] .

Current ezreal prob gonna become a balance nightmare due to his interaction with things like iceborn gauntlet and double tear builds which for some reason have managed to fly under the radar. So would be cool if he got reverted or change for a better playstyle since current ezreal is just the least interactive champ there is in adc atm. oh nvm as an Apc hes loses to the Donger as being uninteractive so there is that.

Just my thoughts/salt on how ezreal is now in comparison to how he was before and what is his issue.

are you kidding?

more marksmen should be like ezreal, in that their damage isnt reliable, can be outplayed and doesnt entirely depend on their auto attacks.

its anoying how being able to apply on hit effects with his q makes him so good at abusing on hit mechanics, but the general idea that hes not the same garbage stat check design like tristana or vayne should be supported.

all the other marksmen just rely on no counterplay stat checking.

Double tear is not flying under the radar, Ezreal currently has some AP scaling nerfs on the PBE to weaken it without harming players who still play Ezreal purely AD.
