Mobility is not a good choice of boots for Ezreal at all.

Only get manamune if you don't have mp/5 yellows.

for AD ez, I carry Red armor pen, health quints, yellow mp/5 or attack speed depending on how i feel, and blue cd reduction.

EDIT: Boot wise, Merc treads or zerkers. Even ionian would help.

**Minardi** · 2011-02-20 04:23

Oh, ok! Yeah, Boots Mobility dosen't seem that handy compared to what else you can get. I can do your rune page Nelta, I've got that setup!
What items do you pick up for him? Anything you rush first?

**Vandole** · 2011-02-20 04:33

oh shit nelta uses my standard squishy AD set XD

played a few games earlier with nidalee by request, jesus i forgot how she can do practically anything in a pubstomp. i was solo lane and got my lane down every game. one game i got all 3 main towers down on my own because the team was busy ganking

**Minardi** · 2011-02-20 04:38

Oh damn, that's nutty!

My regular build for AD usually is

Dorans blade
stack one for survivability
lvl 1 boots
here's where it gets a little tricky, if you are using mp/5 rush trinity force, if not, rush manamune.
trinity force by going Sheen > if you have mp/5 go zeal, if not go phage, and 3rd item is whatever you didn't pick up.
Banshee's
Blood thirster

and for boots, merc treads or zerks.
Hell even madreds will work.
The situational AD items pretty much will work on Ez.

Reason for trinity force, well, think of trinity force as a AD lich bane.
Automatically boost mystic shot.

For boots, zerks or treads depending on the game and how awesome you feel. The thing people forget most about Ezreal is that they can auto attack. AD ezreal auto attack still does a shit ton of dmg. Most people just E Q W and run away forgetting to auto attack.

I personally like the Mobility boots, obviously. I like being able to move around faster, setup ganks, and provide backup quicker. I do buy Mercury Treads when they're necessary, but Berzerker boots seem to me to be a waste on Ez. In most fights, I'm attacking fast enough anyway just from his passive and a boost from Youmuu's for a few seconds. Comes down to preference, I guess.

I just started playing this today, if anyone would like to friend me. OskarsBartulis

i totally agree with you.

**Qeomash** · 2011-02-20 17:27

Oh, they're not a waste on every character! They're great for Master Yi!

**Minardi** · 2011-02-20 18:07

Ok, thanks! I always like see how people build their characters :D. And Hahahhaha, poor Yi, poor Yi. I still hate his Alpha strike :<.
I'll keep the boot choices in mind, I like how there's a selection of them depending on the situation. I may try out Ez in a game, I usually like to have at least 5 or so practice games under my belt before trying to take a char into a Normal. I sometimes end up choking and forgetting what item I need to build next.

**Falaras** · 2011-02-20 18:37

I know a lot of my friends like to use Armor Pen reds, and MP5 yellows/blues for Ez to have the extra mana in the laning phase. Sadly I don't have any IP for T3 reds and blues.

**Djghost454** · 2011-02-20 20:46

As far as boots go, I've been a GIANT fan of the new CDR boots, if the team doesn't have a ton of CC I almost always get them.

**Vandole** · 2011-02-21 20:15

elementz updated his tier list. nidalee being top tier for solo queue now makes me lol

Spoiler: show

**Minardi** · 2011-02-21 23:13

Hahaha, Nidalee was quite fun, but I never quite got good at running the fuck away as her. :X. I was going to buy her, but then got Urgot... Then Swain!

**Qeomash** · 2011-02-21 23:23

I love it when teams of five stuns think they're awesome.

**Minardi** · 2011-02-21 23:28

Bluuuuh that always sucks! "GUESS WHAT GUYS, DISABLES. DISABLES FOREVER."

i'm sorry you bought hurrgot too. i'm sorry i own hurrgot too :[

nidalee 101: turtle like a mofucka til level 6, then unleash the fucking PAIN. Jump in, claw claw claw, jump out. repeat until desired effect reached.

easy to juke with the jumps too. ghost + flash only as her summoner spells. there's nothing like pouncing then flashing then pouncing.

i only play nidalee if i'm solo top.

**Minardi** · 2011-02-21 23:46

Ah, I liked Urgot a whole bunch.. Just was sad when I queued up with a buddy, and they were like "NO URGOT!". Picked him anyway, then killed a Ryze on my team with my ult cause he was a jerk/couldn't juke worth a damn/was already pretty much dead so NYEH. He would of died anyway, but I felt bad until he opened his mouth. I loved Acid Hunter, just sometimes it wouldn't lock properly even though I had my target locked.

Hmmmm. Yeah, I was playing her when I was still really passive (Have to get better about it still), so I wouldn't get much in. That, or i'd be in a duo lane. There were a few times where I was doing ok at fleeing, then i'd have people yelling at me on vent to X, so i'd falter and BAM. DED. How did you build Nida?

**Vandole** · 2011-02-22 00:11

dorans shield starter. 9/0/21 masteries

movement quints
magic pen reds
mana regen/lvl yellows
cdr blues

start off with bushwack, ward the fuck out of your area with it. you WILL NOT get ganked that way because you have ghost and flash and can get out of any situation.

last hit with melee of course, poke against other team when you can. use minions as shields for skillshots, level up either bushwack or heal(if you need heal, level it up. fuck.) i usually only get 1 in javelin cause it kinda blows until you get AP.

if i have to return before my tower is down, i usually try to get boots and 3 dorans rings. if you get the dorans rings it guarantees your laning power because you regen so much mana you can heal yourself through ANY damage. if you're doing better don't go back til you have a shitton of gold. my last game i didnt buy til i had 4k gold lmao. i was 5/0 with two downed towers with only dorans ring.

core items: guinsoos rageblade & sheen. if you have the money your first time going b get rageblade, if not get sheen first. rageblade is much more useful though.

after those two items you can generally have to decide whats best for your team to get. it's typically going to be either a rabadons deathcap or a banshees veil though.

keep in mind: this was solo queue and i had top all to myself. some champions really blow if they dont get a solo lane and some heavy farman. also notice i healed myself for 75% of my damage taken as well.

**Minardi** · 2011-02-22 00:41

Damn Van, Damn. Wouldn't stacking rings set you back in the end, or is it just a sort of stopgap measure to help make up for returning early? I really want Movement quints, people seem to be singing their praises now! Too bad they cost so much, and I play so rarely that it takes a while to get runes :<. Rageblade and seen seem to always have a spot in Nida's inventory! I used to forget about it sometimes though, whoops.

Makes sense about trap first and warding everything up; I did that once to help protect a jungler, by laying down traps in areas where he could get interrupted (at least two big spots). I've done top before, that stuff makes me nervous as all getout when having to 2v1. Usually I was Mundo or Urgoooooot when I had those duties. Now I usually get to go mid, which also makes me a bit sad since I don't use it to gank like I should... But ah well. Hilarious times!

Excellent about the solo ranking! Jungle Amumu and Rammus make me sad- "SUP GUYS, YOU GONNA GET GANKED".
I wanted to try out Shaco, but I think he'd be pretty incompatible with my playstyle.. I suppppose.
