Ezreal needs buffed

He's a fun as hell adc but he doesn't scale anywhere near other adcs which is kinda disappointing. Even if you land all your skill shots you still don't dish out the damage late game the way Kog, Cait, Lucian, Trist, etc do and if you miss or are around minions that block your skill shots your basically screwed. For a champion that's so skill based, he should scale better , I mean isn't that the point of skill shots? to reward players for landing them? Other wise why pick Ezreal if you can pick trist who does more damage, longer range and has an escape?

His W is good for AP but for ad builds it does hardly any damage, does nothing really for you accept to stack your passive and can give your team mates some attack speed.

I Kinda would like to see ezreal rewarded more for being an all skill shot champ, not weaker than adcs that don't require anywhere near the same amount ezreal does.

Even his ult isn't as fast as Trists or Ashe, you can easily see it coming.

He's great early game, ok mid game but sucks late game even if you build Last whisper & Botrk against tanks where as varus, lucian, trist, cait, ashe, vayne seem to just melt tanks late game and they don't even have to use skill shots to do it, they can do it with auto attacks,

I disagree. I just started playing him now that he's on free rotation, and one game I went 28/2/7. I built item 3031 item 3042 item 3078 item 3035 item 3153 item 1334 and was literally one shotting every enemy. My E damage would 100% to 50% their Zilean alone, with a basic attack or Q to finish him off. I even had a KhaZix jump on me 1v1 late game and I was able to kill him 100% to 0% while he only got me to 50%. Ezreal is crazy strong, especially if you have a good support behind you.

Hell, there were a couple 2v2's bot lane where I missed multiple Q's and still picked up the double kill thanks to my E damage and auto attacks. Ezreal op

He's okay. Just kinda an off build compared to most ADCs. Also, Ez has an escape. And a global ult. And a low-CD skillshot.

They're doing a bulk change to marksmen for preseason. Some will likely be nerfed while others are buffed, along with item changes. Why not see what's in store for him then?

Ezreal is pretty strong, he's an early - mid game champion, he works well with a lot of Supports and works well with pretty much any AD item. He's the first thing that comes to mind when I think of a Caster ADC. I haven't played him often, but my sister says that AD Ezreal is really underestimated right now as she plays him a lot.
