AP Ezreal Mid

I just played a game AP Ezreal mid to which I was bombarded in pre game chat to 'you're a fucking troll kys'. I ended up doing the most damage on the team and was flamed the entire game. Then my client crashed after the game and I couldn't report them. GL HF summoners. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

AP Ez always does most damage. Mad poke and free ult damage.

he does ridiculous damage but make sure you ban ahri . its unplayable if your laning against ahri. actually league of legends is unplayable if your lane opponent is ahri.

Wait what? I always believed AP Ezreal was better than AD... Those were some dumbasses you played with lol. AP Ezreal is a monster with a blink escape included.

I dont know man thats just my experiences. I always get hyped when an ezreal ult is going to hit someone and then it turns out it bearly did 300 damage because he was ad. AP ezreal ults can half health some people haha.

its really annoying to see ez mid.

You see the midlaner come do half their hp and then he just has nothing else to offer for a while. He can ult I guess but he just does nothing special until his combo is back up really.

Oh look he's out of position! oh nvm ez mid... guess we can poke him some more... oh wait no we can't he's ignoring the damage. better stun.. oh wait someone else has to do it for him. Well at least he's fed... oh wait its AP ez. he can do anything important to one at a time when his ult is down

wompwomp wahhhh

That sounds like a bunch of unfortunate personal experiences.. With really high base damages and amazing scalings, AP Ez actually has one of the higher burst potentials in the game, if he isn't instakilling people almost leblanc style, he's doing something wrong, probably. more of a burst ap assassin than a mage imo, though he can kite very effectively and output a lot of aoe dmg as well. generally he provides a shit ton of damage, but that's literally it.

its not just misfortune, not to be confused with miss fortune who also has more to offer than just damage and selfish protection, but the fact of the matter is that even leblanc has more to offer since she has better cooldowns on a larger portion of her burst and isn't nearly entirely skillshot reliant, you can't block most of her stuff and the majority of her damage isn't realistically dodgable. Ez can one shot people who have no business fighting high burst champs alone, good for him. But he does nothing else, personal experiences or not. When the enemy is competent AP ez becomes a huge burden. He can't keep his damage up giving them huge gaping windows during which they can attack all they like. Once his ult is down he's just another normal damage source, Hurray he does like 25% more damage if he actually lands everything on just the right person which wont happen against competent teams even if the player doesn't suck, actually its more likely to happen if he sucks and just sacrifices himself to almost instagib someone whos being protected because their team knows that's all AP ez can really do.

Worst of all though is having to play around having one of those on your team. Even when youre winning it feels really shitty because the midlaner can't do much. Its like playing with asthma guy just because he can shoot from the 3 point line but that's all he can do.

I still disagree. Ezreal has relatively low cooldowns, which is amplified by the cooldown reduction given due to hitting his Q, and the amount of long range AoE damage he offers is pretty much unrivaled by most. I don't think he's a great AP mid because of his total lack of CC, but discrediting his damage is not correct, he offers plenty of burst as well as sustained damage.

Nothing wrong with AP ez damage wise. He is just garbage in lane, you just shove him under tower and roam

If only for his low Q damage, maybe I should try gunblade first item

By the time you get an item laning is pretty much over, nothing can fix his laning

AP Ezreal is the rare champion that can lead the game in damage and still be useless. It's actually rather impressive.
