Are we going to see any changes anytime soon? He is beyond completely ridiculous right now.

source??

cause acording to league of graphs, his winrate at dia+ is 50.7% and acording to lolking, it's barly more than 50%...

50-57% pickrate might be concerning, though i honestly don't give that much on it for dia+ only as it's a really small playerbase and ez currently is their hyp champ...and lucian is with around 50% also damn high, and corkis 30% pickrate aren't low aswell. Dia+ simply has a pretty small effective champion pool, especially for adc. You will have Lucian, ez, corki nearly every game, with some kalista, vayne and cait in between, which was prettymuch the case every season, 3 toptier adc and ~3-4 more niche picks in competetive

A few minutes ago I was looking at the pbe patch notes to see how Riot is finally gonna nerf this champ. Turns out not at all lol

All they need to do is to reduce the slow of gauntlet for ranged char (either by reducing the aoe, the % slow or the duration... or all three of them)

People complaining about Lux AND Ezreal? I sense a conspiracy.

First off, Vayne and Jinx are no longer destroying bot lane left and right, so he has time to farm because he goes against Lucian who relies on getting advantages early game and doesn't outscale him.

Second of all, despite what everyone thinks, Low Risk and moderate reward which is Ezreals playstyle will always be better than high risk and moderate/high reward, and people in high elo know this, Ezreal doesn't need to win lane, he just needs to farm, and unlike Vayne and Jinx he can avoid confrontation pretty well.

To only have a 53% win rate in diamond and above actually doesn't make him sound that bad to me. If he had a 53% win rate in general, and 55+% in diamond and above, then I would start to worry.

Perhaps I'm just misinformed about what win rates look like in diamond for broken champs.

Ezreal and Lucian Meta, all the meaningful ADC changes seemed to be thrown out the window because of thunderlords.

only good players can unleash his full potential plus hes really fun to play so maybe thats why.

Do not touch Ezreal. Only I may touch Ezreal. Ezreal is perfect just the way he is.

Why? He wasnt buffed or anything. He is just popular atm cause of LCS. He is same as past year. No matter how u change his numbers he will still go blue ezreal and still have same gameplay.

I'm more convinced he is picked thanks to aesthetic value, same goes for Ahri, Caith and Lux.
