"Ez does no damage"

Man, that's a funny joke. He's just pick/ban in LC$ every fucking year 'cause of how fun he is, right? Same with Nami? They're both actually horrible champs! Mhm! You guys wouldn't lie, right?

ezreal is a snowball champ, he falls off terribly compared to other marksmen champions, but the only reason he does do damage is because he spikes objectively faster then everyone else, so its not that hes strong, everyone else is just super far behind him. and of course, pros know how to abuse leads like this.

also biased cause I main nami, but she does amazing trades early, but heavy mana issues force you to decide whether to stay back and sustain your adc if you're getting out-traded, or go in and poke at the expense of retaliation (because immobile) so chances are at around level 2-3 the longer the trade goes, the more likely shes going to lose, unless she lands the situational bubble and then e>w

also id like to ask, who ever said these two don't do damage?

No, the term I'm looking for isn't snowball champ, it's "broken champ" -- but he makes money at LC$ and he's popular in general, so he's actually weak.

Nami is good at poke, good at healing, good at CC / peel, good at engaging (and she does it better than champs MEANT to do those things)... she has no fucking downside or weakness, and despite Riot "hating" generalists, she's entirely ignored when she is pick/ban in LC$ every fucking year (for a reason), and has never once been in a bad spot.

by this logic, technically any meta champion picked in LCS or some professional scene is "broken" because they "make them money". and just look at ryze, hes reffered to as broken in LCS, and is in fact getting nerfed because of how strong he is. he makes pretty crazy plays, so he should be the last one being nerfed (and even considered for a rework) by this mentality.

Nami is good at poke, good at healing, good at CC / peel, good at engaging (and she does it better than champs MEANT to do those things)... she has no fucking downside or weakness,

because shes designed to win using short efficient trades, the reason shes in such a good spot right now is because the meta calls for who can get snowballed faster. and she has an obvious weakness, just like champions like zyra or sona who want to make quick efficient trades where you don't have the opportunity to retaliate, the longer you can draw out the trade, the more likely shes gonna die (or in some cases, if you can initiate first). you're probably not going to beat her at her own game unless your playing some kind of catcher ( Leona Alistar Rakan Blitzcrank ) or if you simply can outpoke her whether it be through more raw power ( Zyra ) the ability to negate her healing ( Varus ) or superior range ( Caitlyn Varus ) ( Tristana a bit later on)

and despite Riot "hating" generalists, she's entirely ignored when she is pick/ban in LC$ every fucking year (for a reason), and has never once been in a bad spot.

neither has thresh

Ez is picked for his safety and mobility, not his damage But he does have damage. Esp his double tear build that is becoming popular. I have a video of full build double tear ez where i hit a Q W on enemy kasai an 1 shot her.

Going double item 3070 on ezreal is way to turn useless into advanced useless.

Well, thats because you have to actually know how to play him. In my experience he is actually terrible because the majority of Ezreal players in solo que just sit way back and spam Q. They never autoattack and thus do no damage.

Ezreal is infuriating to fight. Just Qs until one lands

RatpieApr 30, 20181 votes

Its not the damage that is the problem, it is how endless he can spam his skills and still have half his mana left. It is like death by a million paper cuts, and if you have a lower range or slower champ you just get bled out.
