Please give me back old ezreal

his new W is terrible, and i hate it. t does no damage untill you pop it making you have to put yourself in harms way to proc it, by either Ein or AAin. so much fun in lane to sit there and throw W and have to go into danger on one of the squishiest champions just to use the ability. old W could be used to poke laners and make chasing you a very deadly feat. new W just leads to point an click one shot bursts. not to mention it is no longer aoe damage and can be blocked by a tank or support in lane. just give back the old W and tack a AD ratio on it so it will be decent for ad ez.

Also turning it into a single target spell, allowed it to proc muramana which has been frontloading his burst with double tear since the changes.

Ezreal's old W literally did no damage unless you built AP. The new one does a decent amount of damage but the mana refund and tower damage is more than enough to make the ability useful on AD builds.

Are we talking about the same champion? Ezreal has one of the safest kits for an ADC. He has a basic ability that applies on hit effects, it does good damage, has a low mana cost, and has 1,000+ range (iirc.)

He also has one of the best escape abilities with a good range and the ability to buffer CC. Don't even get me started on the whole IBG build.

Ezreal is not risky in the slightest.

New W makes chasing Ezreal deadly. Like WAY more deadly than his old W. It's not that hard to proc W as long as you can land a skillshot as well. New Ezreal is way better than the old one.

there is tons of champions who do damage from range and are safer and more tanky.

How many of them have access to a free flash?

Take Xerath for instance he has long ranged poke and CC, however he pays for it by having no mobility.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYXqF59Jj34 This pretty much aoe damage that could hit everyone. With new Ez my W woulda hit zac did no damage eat my Q and i woulda never pulled off this pentakill, because i wouldnt chunked jhin wth my W Q before finishing him with Q. also new Ezreal W is much longer cooldown than the old one.

from that teamfight (judging by the video only not by score.)

the team does all the work mainly the ezreal legit earn probably a triple kill the rest was clean up penta which is not a true penta. a true penta is when you sneak attack a whole team then wipe them out the backline then frontline excluding tanks tanks are just a bonus.

But the new W is actually useful, the old W literally did nothing.

Finally Someone gets it. REVERT EZ W ITS GARBAGE. Gives nothing good except tower damage. No aoe, short range extra burst but doesnt matter ur damage doesnt come from it, no utility no playmaking, no skill expression, bring back old w give ad ration and bring back the heal on it
