Nerf ezreal's abusrd ap scaling on W.

JuiceBoxP·Jun 22, 2019·5 votes·1,296 views

There is no valid reason that an ezreal with 50 cs and 3 kills at minute 18 will will do 75% of someone's health with fucking and single skillshot. https://youtu.be/ghWzGevYbDI This is beyond ridiculous.

Maybe spread his scaling across his entire kit, because if getting hit by w means you lose 75% of your health pool it is just incredibly dumb.

He was mid lane and i was support on a losing lane so the obvious level difference is obvious but level difference doesn't mean i should lose 75% of my health with a single ability.

"Just dodge his w" if he only hits one w out of 10 he throws at me he gets to take away 75% of my health pool? Don't think that's balanced.

Nope, no Nerfs for Riots Gold Boy. He just got another Legendary, needs to sell a bit more.

Also a lot of people will tell you to just dodge his Spells, since they are on a very high CD!! :)))

I don't even mind AD ezreal, he is balanced.. sort of. You can dodge his spells by sitting behind minions and predicting his skillshots.

But out of 30 skillshots that go through minions he hits 1 and takes away 75% of your health. Absurd.

So you're implying AP Ez is overpowered? His statistics don't seem to reflect that at all. And I'm more inclined to believe those than someone who clearly didn't have fun in the game they're clipping and came here to vent.

What part of my thread led you to believe that? HMM, maybe the title?

Then you are just going to read the statistics and complete dismiss all the proof i've given here that his w scaling is absurd. Fine then, go read statistics mate.

If that's not what you're getting at, then what is?

AP Ezreal is already by no means viable. There's other champions that chunk you from range in a similar manner, but more reliably, and offer more things to a team than he could, like for example, actually existent waveclear and/or CC. Why nerf something that is already weak and, as a consequence, also unpopular?

Even in this clip you showed, what the Ezreal did only worked because he did it against a 3 lvls lower support who obviously isn't going to kill him. If he tried E'ing forward like that into the Zed or something, he'd be inting.

To be fair, it seems like it was a sequence of WEQ and all damages hit. Not to mention, he's 3 levels above you.

The damage seems relatively reasonable, at least in terms of the current damage meta. Though may still be on the high side given if he's actually very unfed as described.

.....

You know what's actually broken in Ezreal though (barring his notorious Q)? The hitbox on his W.

I am not sure how Riot coded it but it has some of the worst hitbox in the entire game. Never can you so blatantly miss a spell visually and somehow still latches on. You think Blitz and Thresh's auto-correcting hook is bad? Ho ho, you ain't see nothing until Ezreal missing W on you by a Teemo (unit) or more and still hit.

Maybe they thought that because W itself doesn't do anything so they put extra leniency on having it be easier to land. But I've always thought "it's all skill" is the point of Ezreal? Not to mention, the hitbox they've ended up putting into W is just way too broken.

He did not hit his q. It was w e, not even an AA in there.

Understand something, he had 50 farm and 3 kills and ONE ITEM... AT MINUTE 18. He had 1k more gold more than me, morgana support at the end of the game. Yet he did this monstrous damage.

This is not okay.

yeah I had added this line

"Though may still be on the high side given if he's actually very unfed as described."

into the previous reply.

That wasn't 75% it was more like 60.

Also nice sidestep :))

I think all his ap scaling should go down since it's why he is the best adc right now.

SaezioJun 22, 20191 votes

best adc? AHAHAHHA where?

Soloq? Trash winrates

Pro play? Not even close to best adc

boricCentaur1Jun 23, 20191 votes

So 2nd most played adc and 30% presence in pro play.

Guy if you're going to use statistics can you actually KNOW HOW TO USE THEN since winrate means basically nothing in this case and he has seen pro play.

Errr... That morgana is 3 levels behind. And we are not even able to see her items or ezreal's items.

And it's not "a single ability" It's W+something else

How much MR did you have?

How much Health did you have?

Did he have penetration boots? Did he max WE first? Did you go double MR runes? Did you have ANY defensive runes?

And yeah 3 level disparity means you would have died to anyone. Try that vs a LB that has luden's and boots. She would have 100-0 you easily without even R
