Instead of attack speed on Ezreal's passive...

Desiderium·Sep 5, 2015·1 votes·524 views

Rising Spell Force - Whenever Ezreal lands a spell, he gains 5% armor penetration and magic penetration, stacking up to 5 times.

Neither AD nor AP Ezreal use their autoattacks very often, instead preferring to use his very long range spells. Ezreal is not a damage-oriented ADC.
Ezreal gains the only MR black cleaver in the game, making him an attractive latter pick against tanky teams. Niche becomes deeper.
With a Last Whisper and a Void Staff, Ezreal becomes the only ADC in the game that doesn't rely on percent max health damage to do reliable (but not over-the-top) damage to tanks.

Make it bonus Apen and Mrpen, then it would be something much more... I would say balanced.

Having it take 25% of those out of the whole would make it strong against squishy characters, which he should excel at anyways. Making it bonus Armor or Magic Resist, like how I think Cait's passive works with Armor, would be solid.

Though the Attack Speed passive is still okay right now.

The thing is, the entire point of the attack speed passive is to attempt to force him to actually get in autoattack range to output high damage.

Look looks like kayles passiv: When Kayle attacks a champion, the target loses 3% Armor and Magic Resistance for 5 seconds. This effect stacks up to 5 times.
