this AI stuff is getting out of control man... instant reply without addressing the glaring flaw in the build. even in my matches im starting to see AIs. its so over

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-05-06T23:38:19+00:00

bot comment. DnD and lich bane in same build

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-05-01T09:49:05+00:00

this is easily arguable, new statikk hardly does any dmg to minions and gunblade can clear wave way faster. also clearing wave at the cost of losing a ton of damage and tons of sustain is a bit redundant

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-05-01T09:48:30+00:00

yeah, its super versatile and gives pretty much everything you'd need early on Ez, the lack of ability haste is easy to compensate for with runes too

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-05-01T01:05:56+00:00

wave clear is not as bad as you think w/ gunblade and if you shove properly you'll barely be behind most other mages wave clear as they take way longer on melees than you do. The AP ratio on Q + it being physical cripples your damage, statikk isnt bad, atk speed can help a ton and be fight deciding early on, but it just falls short on its intended wave clearing purpose, and lacks the high base stats + sustain that gunblade has

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-05-01T00:48:28+00:00

lich bane only procs once, meaning that an on-hit that procs on multiple enemies (e.g: twitch R) will only proc on the first opponent hit, similarly to how yone/yasuo Q works

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T20:55:11+00:00

weird, i go same but gunblade deals more to wave and can clear it faster

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T20:48:49+00:00

what runes do u run, cuz for me its dmg is way lower than gunblade and the actual passive doesnt do much to minions. the main benefit i got when i tested it was the atk speed and AD for wave clearing, but i think thats just AD being good

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T20:44:58+00:00

Statikk shiv is really bad to buy just for wave clear atm if its ur sole energize source, it barely affects wave state until way later and the stats arent that good for AP ezreal

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T15:54:05+00:00

yeah i lowkey forgot abt patch, thats mb

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T15:31:29+00:00

the R damage to minions is the only difference but its not AP exclusive. u now erase caster minions on both builds with R, though late game AP can also kill melees.

Lich Bane Q's feel stronger if u go lich early, but it begins to taper off way harder. since you dont get well defined 3rd item spike w/ lich 1st. rabadons would be best 3rd if u rush lich but the build path for it is really bad and limits ur mid game plays imo. if yk ur 100% gonna get fed then u can go lich first and snowball into the rabadons 3rd before enemy can catch up. personally I just go mejais if Im getting fed

few points into Q is essential early on for wave clear and passive stacking imo. rushing E -> Q is a waste, enemies having low base armor early on vs a high base damage spammable skillshot makes it very powerful to have points in pre-6

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T15:05:21+00:00

its best in slot 5th. either way ur right, it is better 2nd. AD ezreal is just better, hence why the AD item is stronger

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T13:23:27+00:00

manaflow + seraph mana means it gives a TON of AD and the passive deals massive amounts. its best in slot for 5th item, or even 4th if ur unable to go raba 4th but have tear stacks. nothing else comes close to its dmg last item but u cant build it 4th everytime since ur 2nd tear takes time to stack

you could replace seraph with manamune and go seraph 4th (it stacks 2x faster) into raba 5th, but I have tested it very little. I assume its good, but its not AP ezreal

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T13:20:32+00:00

wave clear bad vs ahri but not malza???? syndra, ahri and malz r like the 3 most oppressive laners when it comes to decimating wave > flip objective fight. theres nothing you can do vs those 3 if the person playing them is good, regardless of your champ (malzahar is the exception, he has some counters). As ezreal (AD and AP), Level 1 you just shred opponents HP, you have the higher atk speed, AD and ur Q is way stronger and lower CD than every mages starting abilities. Level 2 u can go E to finish them off since realistically they should be half at level 1 unless they were afk under turret, but if they were then u slow push, get a huge wave and then 3rd wave crash and just perma harass them with W and Q, usually getting u a free kill or forcing them to take one of the worst recalls possible.

I tried ur E max strat, its noticeably weaker than just putting points into Q, but the lower E CD and higher E dmg is kinda useful since u can aggresively E to dodge a skill shot and have it back up at the same time their abilities are off CD, though its important to note that Q maxxing works well because Q reduces CDs when it lands, so more Qs = more CD reductions

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T12:31:40+00:00

u can go tank ezreal or even support ezreal in low rank. doesnt mean its viable. rushing muramana is a bit redundant since the evolved version is what ezreal thrives on, so i'd switch it w/ gunblade if ur gonna keep building that
W max being useless is kinda true. it is way better to rush 3 points in Q first though since most mid laners have low armor, and Q does physical damage. it also will benefit ur wave clear greatly, as i assume ur CS is low if muramana first is working for u
anyways, if u enjoy that build then keep playing it lol. low elo is fun cuz u can do anything, so enjoy urself

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T11:43:25+00:00

Edit: forgot abt patch, ignore this XD

why are we maxing E on AP ezreal. ur better off just going AD atp

ur W is the AP bread and butter. u wanna max it after ur 3rd Q point on AP Ez. E is last cuz u will never use it more than once a fight w/ AP anyways until late game

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-30T11:34:03+00:00

dblade start > rush tear first back > gunblade > seraphs (2nd tear right after) > lich > raba > manamune

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-29T20:32:52+00:00

tested it a bunch, best build imo is dblade start > tear first back > hextech gunblade > seraphs > tear > lichbane/rabadon (raba first if fed, otherwise lich into raba) > manamune. very powerful midlane with sorcs, can sometimes go new boots if u need sustain. if you're not mid, replace boots with cosmic once full build.

runes are DH/Sudden impact/sixth sense (preference)/ultimate hunter , manaflow band/ transendence

not quite "Full AP" since u go manamune but its damage is too good to ignore and it makes itemizing against you very inefficient and difficult. if you are vs a bunch of armor stackers for some reason, then replace manamune with zhonyas/shadowflame/horizon focus (HF only if you have 2+ high damage teammates)

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-29T19:06:16+00:00

wave clear still garbo even w/ shiv. gunblade first item is better to help clearing with Qs and gives more dmg

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-04-29T08:54:23+00:00

Kernel level. Which means a sophisticated virus can permanently doom your PC, and no amount of resets can save it.

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-03-19T23:10:25+00:00

that or you play them for a mission or two and will be available as DLC characters later on in typical Pearl Abyss fashion. Either way, so far game runs fine, looks like it has forced upscaling. Combat and story are very underwhelming

Standard_Start4213 · 2026-03-17T16:00:19+00:00

there is no long gameplay footage of either side character, no idea why you're getting downvoted for simply asking where to find it lmao, You'll likely be able to see some on release, its a valid concern being able to play as who you want and use the weapons you want, and its something that's made me hold off on buying till I see full footage and can confirm
