In League of Legends, not every champion is meant to put on a show.
In the game’s early days, AD carries in particular were used to playing safely. Positioning carefully in team fights. Waiting for the right chance to carry the day.
But one champion broke the mould. He gave ADCs the spotlight -- and let them pick their own moment to shine.
He inspired the game’s player-base.
And throughout the game’s history, pro players saw something in Ezreal, the Prodigal Explorer, too. It was the opportunity to grasp perfection, and wield it against their opponents.
These mechanical gods craved the skill expression Ezreal enabled. And the champion fit them like a glove.
This is the Story of Ezreal.

ngl he’s probably one of the best designed champions that enable people to do exactly what they want without the frustration of losing control
Ehm *JHIN*
Well one of
ye, when u can build anything after a sheen and a tear and still do damage, while having one of the safest kits in the game. Also sells skins so you gotta keep him in play every single year of the game
@@chopthatpanda Anything? Time to build sunfire on ez 🤣
@@chopthatpanda at 3 items he deals the damage other adcs deal at 2 items
I can't believe you didn't mention Bebe, the guy who got a World Champ skin with Ezreal and invented the original Blue Ezreal build with the jungle item, tear and frozen gauntlet.
Are you really surprised ? Its the score Esports
But it wasn't he who invented the blue build. It was Waiting7777 who invented. But bebe deserved for the skin.
@@dinho178 I might have misremembered but I think he was the first pro to use the build and really popularized it.
@@Hi_Its_Akira Yeah he was the first pro to make it popular but the guy I mentioned was doin this build since season 1.
@@dinho178 I would like to see this waiting777, I only see one post on reddit about it and it seems like a troll because waiting is only gold/plat ranked. Plus the blue build i remember used spirit of the wraith(a season 3 item) and frozen gauntlet(not in the reddit picture I saw).
Ezreal is the champ that made me feel like I could carry anyone. Learned from Deft, Bang, DL and others to understand Ezreal's whole kit and playstyle. Plus whenever I sniped people across the map using Ez's ult, I felt like a god LOL.
@KshitijGaming I thought that's like Swain's W?
@@lokksiders__2151 yeah its truly global takes a while to active and does true damage tho
@@ohno4435 Another thing to note is that in enemies perspective they can't see the windup for Sun Strike while with Swain's W everyone can see the windup
@@Exslider2 he does a little animation tho, so its cool when u dodge a sunstrike cuz ur mid pings u after seeing voker move his hands a little lol
@@ohno4435 despite the name, trueshot barrage actually deals magic damage
Ezreal was the first champ and the first main I loved playing when I started playing League, simple abilities, but challenging executions to make your impact.
If you want to learn League. Learn Ezreal. The amount of skillshot, positioning, and map awareness is really really valuable tools in Ezreal.
unfortunately people just end up playing him 2 screens back and never learning how to lane
I dont think he is the best one to start out with. I tried to and I hated it (mostly bc I was really bad and didnt hit my skillshots, but I was bad, and probably still am)
He's too safe to actually learn league. If you learn ez first when you switch to ashe/varus you'll go 0/10 and not understand why.
no
Disagree. E is like training wheels for adc. First it's probably ideal to use a less mobile ADC like Jhin or MF, find out what bad positioning that'll get you caught out is, try and minimize it, then use champs like Ezreal and Xayah. Imagine you go from playing with Ezreal to most ADCs, the positional understanding from ezreal just leads to a bunch of deaths now that your crutch on a low cooldown is gone
Ezreal’s phrase “Time for a true display of skill” is the perfect embodiment of who he is
"Adc always built attack damage"
Shows early Vayne build with Banshee's Veil
Banshee's Veil used to not give AP. For a while it was basically the standard MR defensive item.
It used to give HP and MR and the shield. Was so good on everybody
"ADC always built attack damage"
*looks at Wit's End on Hit Kai'Sa who just goes AP after two core items*
@@slicedmilk7858 oooooh you're right I completely forgot Banshee's was like that, mb 😅
@@eugene12310mobile Hybrid the best, because you rarely go late with crit scale.
he's one of the best designed champions, along with jhin.
though ezreal managed to do well most of the seasons, and jhin tend to fall of after an item nerfs or other adc buffs
favourite league play ive seen was stixxays 1v5 penta with ezreal, the ending,the teams reactions actually made me want to start playing ezreal at that point, just so perfect
"Man, Teddy is so gigantic"
I remember when Ezreal came out. There were some tips on his splash art about how you can play as him or how to play against him.
One of the tip was: Ezreal can be played as a dps, healer or tank
Ye I played my first Ezreal game as a tank
wat
Yo tank ezreal with death’s dance, iceborn, frozen heart and tabis was so fun back when it was meta, 400 armor adc running around with and extra flash and infinite mana
Healer ezreal
@@dustinz7131yea his w back then
His W used to heal.
I used to main old AP Ez mid lmao. His old w could nuke entire teams, it was so fun
Ezreal is by far my favorite champ, he’s so fun and no two games ever feel the same with him
This daily dose is all I want! I appreciate it.

Time for a true display of Skill. -Ezreal
First time I played Ezreal (S3), as a young league scrub, absolutely hated it, and thought the champion was useless. Years later, before his rework, tried him out again and fell in love, and he's been my main ever since.
Runeglaive meta was a nightmare when Ezreal was played mid and constantly given the blue buff you will see trueshot barrage all over the map every 30 secs XD.
Kinda missing uzi's ezreal. The guy defined positioning and play style for the champ.
was looking for this comment
When most players e in to the whole enemy team for damage, they’re trolling and get insta popped for it. When Uzi does it he’s actually initiating and winning the team fight and knocking teams out of playoffs
ezreal is the reason I’m still alive to this day fr
A video about Ezreal that does not even once mention the Ezreal god itself TPA Bebe. Ask any of the pros who went against TPA in season 2 and they will tell you how crazy Bebe was with his Ezreal. He styled with Ezreal like Deft, was consistent like Bang and carried his team in teamfights like Teddy to win them Worlds season 2. The greatest to ever touch the champion.
A pro in season 2 is like plat 3 nowadays. Just sit down dude. Nice story ya wrote there though.
@@jamesvargas9584 so an S3 world champion like Faker is like a low-Diamond nowadays? Stay mad
@@jamesvargas9584 lmao even a washed up pro from season 2 can be at least dkamond 1 nowadays dumb.
@@jamesvargas9584 *world champion
@@jamesvargas9584 COPIUM
But I get what you're saying. I agree with it as well. It's completely hypothetical, but I fully believe an Academy team from S11 can 100% wipe the table with the best teams from earlier seasons.
I literally just unlocked Pulsefire Ezreal after watching this video, such good luck.
I think the other lanes have a "ezreal" feel to them.
Thresh, Leblanc, Riven, Lee sin.
They already covered Thresh if you looked it up
They also covered lee sin
Riven? Leblanc.
LeBlanc - Faker
Riven - BoxBox
I'd argue that there are things like ryze, azir, irelia, and other high skill expression champs that exist out there
I started playing again after a 5 year break...and have been mainly playing Ez in the bot lane. Playing Ezreal is a great way to help your ability in hitting skill shots. And is generally fun too.
I love this champ. Great tribute!
Ezreal was my first adc main back in season 4. I got hooked immediately.
It’s sad that Teddy didn’t get to play at all this worlds. I hope he gets to play more matches next year whether it be for T1 or another team. Teddy being mentioned here just proves how great of a player he is and T1 should not ignore that.
If you've seen T1 played in this season 2021, you should have known without Ezreal, Teddy is no longer a badass AD carry that he used to be. The problem is because of his limited champion range and his micro skills. In fact, T1 has given him the chance to prove that he is better than Gumayusi in draft games but you can see the rest.
@@MinhMorningstar excuse me but we don’t accept hate on teddy here or towards any other player at all. Why don’t people just be quiet when they don’t have anything nice to say. I didn’t even mention gumayushi but here you are comparing them. They’re both great adc’s and they both have weaknesses. All I’m saying is Teddy should be in a team who would let him play and trust him even when he’s having bad days. Not everyone who sits in the starting lineup have performed well all the time. Gumayushi too has had his bad days even when he’s playing aphelios (his most famous champion) but you don’t see me roasting gumayushi about it right?. Damn I was just glad that teddy was mentioned in this video but here you are ruining my vibes.
@@tannie_9716 he wasn't hating on teddy
@@ichigetsu6628 yeah i know but since he already misinterpreted what i was trying to say on my first comment, i might as well go a little overboard with my reply too.
@@MinhMorningstar I would love to see Teddy's Ezreal at the big stage again but I have to agree with your point. And while I would argue Teddy's macro is better because of his immense experience (Which of course includes his mastery in Ezreal), Gumayusi is mechanically better along with the champions strong in the current meta such as Aphelios.

There is a saying I heard somewhere: If you are good at Zed you are just good at Zed but if you are good at Ezreal and TF you are good at League of Legends.
Tf is all about macro. Sometime playing TF make you feel like playing a different strategy game, where you have to be 2 steps ahead of your oppornent. Ezreal play style doesnt have that feel though.

More of this please
Ruler, Teddy and Perkz ezreal was a menace
I miss you so much Josh, come back in every video please.
After being a toplane main for 2 years i binged like 100 ezreal games out of nowhere, just super fun/addicting champ
finally, the tear of goddess himself
Time for a true display of skill
Bebe, Uzi, Viper, Deft, PraY, Teddy, and Bang are all Ezreal gods.
Never played league of legends but if I were to play, ezreal would be the pick he looks so cool!
"Time for a true display of skill!"
My favorite champion hands down.
Stixxay's Ezreal pentakill made me play this champ,and I'm proud to say I'm good at this
I’m gonna rewatch the clip now that you said it.
no TPA Bebe? damn, to me he was the og ezreal god. he invented red-blue ezreal with jungle item + iceborn. that man was a legendary ezreal with World Champion ezreal skin
Cant wait to see Teddy play for a team that lets him play.
Love to see it
I'm happy they put Teddy's clip here
Que video impressionante, ótimo vídeo!

He’s hard man, don’t get discouraged!
If you play safe, Ezreal was near unkillable in lane. Back in season 3 people in my region even called him EZ, because of how quick you can learn his kit.
@@Tauschung how is ezreal hard? Maybe hard to master but easy to understand.
@@Tauschung he is not hard, he is easy to understand but his high skill ceiling makes him hard to master
I got my first ever pentakill with Ezreal and my latest as well 😬
Ezreal is the only champ that make me feel i can carry the game that almost lose.
As an Ezreal OTP since season 4 (started playing in Season 3) and still have fun playing him given the amount of versatility his kit gives him. Ngl, when Essence Flux got changed I didn't like it at first. However now I think it makes way more healthy for his kit.
Please do a Story of Bang and Wolf. They needed the respect and glory they hardly earned.
Neither of them make top 5 of all time for their roles plenty of other players that need a video first.
@@thedeviousone181 who said so?, wolf was top tier and also bang, the only ones of their role that have 2 worlds championships and 3 finals, like how they aren´t gonna be top 5 xD

ezreal is the reason i play league

Ah yes the poster boy
In the early days I got flak for playing ap ezreal support seems stupid now but we could do so much with items and runes that we could do anything we wanted. Glad to say it worked well
Ezreal is the only ADC I play and I main support
This is why Ezreal is my main :)
Ahh yes, the Story of Mr. Quotes A Lot.
inspired me to play ez
You guys forgot his ability to adapt, since we had blue build, runeglaive, then we had jungle ezreal, then draktar ezreal and now we have divine ruptor

An ezreal video without talking about TPA bebe ?
POV you get cc'd and still jump away :)
does anyone know the font in the thumbnails?
teddy should've been mentioned a lot more here
I think the video was more targeted at the pioneers of Ezreal during earlier years. Teddy is of course, an incredible Ezreal, but he likely didn't get mentioned as much because he didn't necessarily transform or influence something huge about the champ, he is more - carrying the torch of high level Ezreal play in the current era, where things about the game are a lot more established and figured out.
I really miss the EZ Jg Meta mention. Also where is the stixxsay play on the Aphroo stream?????
no way a video about my main
Really talked about Bang's ezreal over Uzi :/
He won 2 World while Uzi is on his prime? And most good ezreal player are usually from lck

Me just killed someone from Top to Bot with my ult
Back in my early days of playing I remembered sniping 2 enemy champions (1 in mid and 1 top) and I only realized that I killed them after they /all it to say gj 😂
I switched to ADC from Mid just to be able to OTP Ezreal. He’s my dream champ.
This is literally me what the hell 🤣. My champ pool are all mid laners except Ezreal (I also use Ezreal in mid when I try AP for fun lmao). He's the best.
Fave champ
AP Ez was the real deal
There gonna be any dota hero spotlights like this? Rubick would be cool
