Also, note to everyone:

Stop playing blue ezreal. It's downsides are way worse than the 5% extra damage (maybe) you'll get out of it. Please.

pedit: Normally I go adc ezreal (Essence Reaver - Triforce - BT/Mercurial - Infinity Edge) but what are the downsides of blue ezreal?

The minimal extra damage (and small as fuck slow field) you get out of it isn't worth how apparently difficult it is to play and the sheer amount of time it takes to scale in an early-midgame meta.

I would think it is easier to play because the slow allows for you to kite easier and slow down enemies. The scaling part is the reason I don't play blue ezreal.

Blue Ez isn't that bad botlane. It certainly feels better then playing it mid at least, although to be fair I haven't played it mid too much.

That is the win rate or anyone that has started building those items. It doesnt have to be max build.

Literally all but one of my placements had one person just get completely fed out the ass and carry the game. The last one had a DC. :/

Ultimately, placements don't mean shit this early on in the season. There's all the time in the world for your MMR to equalize.

I don't think I'll be touching ranked anytime soon. At least not until it all stabilizes.

if only there was some proven winning combination in ranked

that won

i carried my first ranked as corki mid, going 14-1
but really i think it had a lot to do with how well corki's low-key aoe damage and hard engage syncs with amumu's ult
the team as a whole was down by about 10 kills, but we won our teamfights easily and quickly
