okay so everything that has lost games is not op? guess the game is balanced then

you dont get the point here. people that go ez smite are PROS in lcs. as far as i know, nobody i've played with is a pro.

AyRe CoNteMpTJul 7, 20151 votes

all people in LCS are pro, no matter what champs they pick. also, they play with other in a team using voice chat. plus they have a general strategy for which they pick specific champs to fulfill specific roles that only exist within that strategy.

this means, whatever you see in LCS is not automatically for soloQ just because "the pros do it".

so either you say "everyone who copies LCS champs is a fool" or you say "LCS is meta, copy LCS" and if its the latter, smite ezreal is meta too and you should not complain.

the reason why lcs is so fun to watch is because they do off meta shit and it works. that what im saying. so people tend to copy and fail hard.

if lcs is fun to watch or not is another discussion
they never do "off meta shit", they just play the game. if you limit yourself to the first 3 champs you see in lcs, that isnt meta. that is retarded. but ofcourse this isnt limited to you, most league players are somewhat mentally a bit underprivileged

It's not really that OP... not anymore OP than straight AP Ez.

The difference is that Runeglaive covers up one of the glaring weaknesses in AP Ez's kit... Waveclearing without using his ult. With Runeglaive he can actually waveclear without using his ult.

But yea, AP Ez has hit like a truck that was on steroids for a long time.

which even then I thought regular ap ezreal was strong. But now right now not only does he have waveclear but ludens and runeglaive stack so when you ult everyone who gets hit loses half there life even when 1/7/4. You can't say that ap ezreals only weakness was waveclear without his ult because even in the lcs you will see bjergesn use like 6 out of like his 9 ults to waveclear and the other 3 for random poke.

The reason I think runeglaive is strong is you can't kill or punish ezreal with smite if you push to his turret he can farm from mid lane to behind his turret a mile away from you and if you freeze at your turret use to you could initiate an all in on ezreal and get easy ganks but now he can play super passive and the gold he loses he gains back and more from farming raptors and then he gets extra mana and (health I believe) from smiting raptors and then you have mega ward control because you are smiting raptors and your jungler can focus on smiting other things to help himself or invading and smiting the enemies raptors and having mega ward control. So ezreal not only helps himself but in a way helps his jungler as well and allows him to use smite on something other then ward control.

and right now ezreal can play like trash go 0/4 in lane then 25 minutes later be 7/9 with low cs and still kill squishies with E + W doing 700 + damage each and if you've been poked at all be either ezreal's ult or just have something that's not full health you just die. without ezreal even needing his Q. Which I personally thought regular ap ezreal was op but with runeglaive you can't punish ap ezreals weaknesses at all.

Ez with smite is new meta for some "guys" cuz the new jungle item is fucking OP and better than Lich Bane. Ofc there are "guys" who think they can be like them (LCS players) and *fart sound* they fuck up

Runeglaive Ez is not as OP as everyone says, yes it helps with some of his weaknesses when building AP (waveclear, turns Q to magic damage) but AP Ezreal has always had crazy lategame damage which is something I think people forget.
