Quit building Essence Reaver on Blue Build Ezreal

Goddamn stop it. It's not doing anything for you. Why the fuck are you building this item?

The crit? 20% crit, you can get that from IE and it increases the damage you put out with it.

The CDR? Why? You already build Iceborn for 20% CDR and you build Ionian boots for 10%. Even if you built more goddamn crit, what would be the point? You'd literally be wasting money because you would go far over the maximum amount of CDR. Did you know that Youmuu's gives the same CDR while packing 20 points of armor pen? With a movement speed steroid to extend your safety net? Did you know you can even skip building Ionian boots and instead build Black Cleaver to get maximum CDR while also now being able to shred armor for your entire team?

Wait, you're not building it for the passive, are you? Do you even fucking read patch notes? You have to auto and get a critical strike to recover mana with the passive. When the fuck are you auto-ing anyone? And even if you are, you have a low 20% chance to recover 3-fucking-% of your mana. Wow, talk about useful.

And don't even try to justify the AD. You're kidding, right? The 65 AD that is outclassed by half the AD item loadout? You need more reason than that to build the item.

Why are people still building this item on a Blue Build Ezreal? It does fucking nothing for you that other items don't do far, far better. I am sick and tired of having to explain in the middle of a game why you are legitimately crippling not only yourself but your team by deliberately making choices that weaken your entire damage set. Fucking quit it.

End rant.

Why are we not replacing the rest of his items with these, then? At least then it'd be way simpler to just identify the trolling.

Frozen hearts white..

No, Frozen Heart has white on it and that's called icicles and frost. Frozen heart is otherwise blue.

I would even accept that Merc Treads aren't technically blue but they have a blue aura. But then I'd just have to have people defend item 3153 Purple and item 3072 Red over here in Ez's build.

That's white and black man. Your losing it.

White and black would then make the refraction of light that is identifiable as blue. Blue is not a physical thing but an idealistic concept given to the perception of light in the spectrum as it meets the eye.

It is blue. You're a moron.

Unless you're talking about the background? In which case: item 3025 Black.

Pitch. Dark. Black.

See now that's blue.

No no. That's white on black. See, now I'm convinced you've gone colorblind.

First of all, good job missing the reply button.

Second of all, pfffffffffffft. I mean, honestly, the extra sight, slow, and 100% AP scaling on your W will probably do more good for you at that point than Essence Reaver ever will. But I'd sooner have somebody build Frozen Mallet just for the ass load of health and actual perma-slow.

The actual point was that the justification that it's blue is absolutely stupid. The reason it's even called blue build isn't the items but because it's a mana build that allows ability spamming. item 3072 This ain't blue. item 3153 Neither is this. item 3033 This has a blue aura, I guess, but people hardly even build it over item 3036 and LDR is fucking red.

If your sheer justification for a build is that it must all be blue and you need to get all the blue items, then you can't get pissed when the Ez walks in packing an FQC just to spite your dumb ass.

You say i missed the reply button when you were the only person i could respond to (Only person to mention it), + you just missed the reply button 2 times, no need to downvote every reply that says anything but yourself.

Okay, firstly, what? I can't tell if you're legitimately that stupid or just playing at being that stupid.

Secondly, you're getting downvoted for saying asinine things on the side with the crystal clear troll here while doing absolutely nothing to progress the actual topic besides, "Oh it's blue".

Then you tell me to fuck off when my response to "It's blue" is that there are a bunch of other blue items to build.

You, sir. Win this award:

Congratulations. You earned it. Truly.
