- awesome carry, especially with his way of escape or initiate with E
- huge life-steal bonus from Bloodthrister, or even two, makes him hard to kill if 1v1
- semi hit with ulti, still huge bonus from Damage
AP Output:
- low auto-attack damage
- has to sit back the team-fight, because if he would engage in melee fight, he would die
- huge Ulti damage due to AP, right
- nice damage with essence shot
BUT.
AD build makes better and fuck-ass-bigger damage output that any AP build that there is. Yes, AP Ezreal while shooting Ult can initiate team-fight very well, but what then? AD Ez can shoot ult, flash into a teamfight, get triple kill just with the AA damage + 5x bonus from passive, E out, wait a bit, jump in again with E and finish everything shooting Q everywhere.
Yes, played Ezreal for long time, and AP build is way less viable than AD.
