Ezreal makes games stale

In tournies he's one of the most, if not, the most picked ADC. Why? Extremely safe, punishing if you slip up and take a Q (especially if you have gauntlet) and hard to stick to/assassinate as they just rush icebourne gauntlet into tabis usually.

I find this patches pro play games extremely boring to watch due to it. No actual fights happen, just poke poke poke. Saw saw a game that ended 9-1 (team wipe at the end) due to this. Ezreal only died because he didn't build a null magic mantel against a leblacn with 30 magic Pen in items that she rushed (bought more offensive items despite her being the only threat).

I just find it silly having to dodge 1000 Q's against an ezreal in lane (very fun) when he never runs out of mana after 1st/2nd back.

Making gauntlet a melee only item would be a great start so that it can be used to stick to slippery champions for melees, as ranged doesn't have that issue and it only makes them oppressive.

yeah I wish I could ban 2 champions tbh. I always ban Master Yi because he just makes the game low quality. Ezreal is the same shit though. too boring.

i gave up trying to tell my teammates to ban ezreal. they just go "lol ezreal?".

he's a comfort pick. he's the most popular adc in NA (at least top 3 lazy 2 look atm) and safe as hell. Can miss countless times but if you hit 1-3 times in a row you win. get on him? oh he just E , oh you get on him again? flash, oh your about to get on him with cd on your gap closer? q cooldown lowering his blink and your dead and slowed the entire time. woo fun

i used to tell people to ban Vayne all the time in 2015-2016 before I started having to because they didn't understand Vayne isn't as hard as people made her out to be at the time and was just autos. It's a NA comfort pick, especially in plat/diamond+.

Funny how times have changed. Only for the past year people have realized how aids vayne is and easy to play.

Same thing with Aatrox as well. I don't find him broken imo, a lot of people are really bad at him. The changes in PBe are fair, although I personally think he only needed the R change so only his healing is increased.

People don't know how to position correctly with his combos and just look like they forget the ranged on their 2nd Q a lot.

the r/Supportlol community even hates playing with Ezreal.

Vayne's "difficulty" is not in her kit.

It's macro/decision making based.

Ha....You want excitement? Play in SoloQ where your bot lane feeds 20 kills in 15 minutes and the rest of the game becomes a struggle between those who want to surrender and those who foolishly believe they can win.

It's nice to be able to watch actual non-feeders play this game sometimes. Watching an entire match of players who don't just go 0-7 in lane just because is actually quite refreshing.

its just an illusion. instead of thinking 1 champion makes the game healthy, maybe its time to re-think the state of the game and address it.

Nothing is wrong with the game. It's the general competence of the average person. The game is designed to harshly punish incompetence and stupidity. This why have 0-20 bot lanes so frequently.
