Playing against Ezreal
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Stay behind minions: his Q is blocked by units, unlike most ADCs.
When Ezreal uses his E offensively, he has no escape for 19-13s — that's the moment to all-in.
He's weaker than most ADCs in the late game because he relies on skillshots — force front-to-back teamfights.
Ezreal power spikes at Muramana + Trinity: before these items, he deals less damage than other ADCs.
