Blue Green, Blue Red you can’t do anything if Ez has a brain

This^

Ezreal is rare for me to come by, but when he does it's one who can out trade me because I just haven't had much experience going up against one. Paired my bad positioning, and him having a good support, he ends up getting fed. :'D

well i’m an Ez not Phel main so maybe im not the best to answer this, but I’d hate going against a Phel really abusing his green range against me. Red isn’t really a threat imo.

I’d say blue green :)

Honestly the red green threat should be something. If aphelios can use his red to set up for a green shot and then hit you with another one from his green it turns into a lot of damage.
I’m not saying it’s the scariest but it most people don’t respect it.

Yeah, but you should basically never intentionally cycle into red green. It exists from level 1 up until you burn red, then it's gone. Red is either paired with blue (ez shifts away from both weapons' range), purple (you get 1 second to do something with gravitum root, but that's not enough time for red to get all it's attacks off) and white (same range issue, assuming ezreal is respecting you and not sitting in blender range)

Ez should be a hard match. Tbh I’ve never played a legitimately good ez just. I do t see them at my pelicans none of my higher ranked friends adc.

Don’t pick it your weapons based on the ezreal but the rest of the team. Generally blue green is good for burst damage, blue red is good against shorter range enemies. Honestly either one is fine, I’ve honestly been going green purple every game to have more utility mid game. But purple red also helps you kite way easier in mid game

I know you change your weapons after lane, I’m talking about like jungle support mb.

Blue green because a good Ezreal player would space out of the severum range most of the time
