Ezreal Semi Rework, How About It Riot?

Dear Readers and Riot,

Since Riot is so fond of remaking champions (which is fine and I'm not going to discuss that here) I thought of posting my thoughts here on the boards. This has been bugging me a lot for the last couple of years.

Ezreal is one of the only champions where his kit exist of 1 useless skill. And I'm not saying this since I'm an ezreal main and I want him buffed just for the sake of being stronger... no that's not it. His passive in my opinion is mediocre but fine I don't want him to get overtuned so that's why I'm not going to downplay his passive too much. However, I do think it could be changed to something like a rageblade passive or even something completely new.

Moving on to the real problem that I'm having, his W. Back in the day Ezreals W had multiple usages for example when he was released in season 1 it healed allies, then after some time it would reduce the enemies attack speed and right now it only deals damage based on AP scaling……

Ezreal has a nice hybrid scaling on most of it skills which I don’t quite understand in the first place since hes build AD 90% of the time but thats not such a big issue. The biggest issue is his W which has no utility and no damage at all… Why would you have a champion with a skill which has no use? Let me correct myself pre minute 15 I use it to stack my TOTG.

I see more people complain ( talk ) about this on my channel but it’s forgotten easily.

Thanks for your time and for reading this rant.

I hope to read your thoughts on it as well.

Kind regards,

Kaluchi

I played EZ today and i built ap for make his one skill viable. Since i dont like play with 3 skills either. Ap ezreal: 0 waveclear - thats all to say. Being down with 100 cs plus i needed like a full minute to kill a simple wave. And i coulndt even kill super minions with it. It was so painful match... Ad ezreal: Viable, still bad weveclear but acceptable at least, plus you have one skill which is completely useless: W. And aslo passive is useless like you mentined.

I dont understand this champion desing either. If i build ap thats very bad, if i build ad thats cool but i miss 1 skill. Its basicly ezreal. Completely agree on reworking its W. Maybe its passive also.
