Also, I think I might respond to Xerav's claim.

Ezreal was not ap in his original design. Ezreal designed him having a physical damage dps or dps mage in mind, offering a choice for all. The reason people chose to play him AP, was his soon to be removed because of overpowered issues Heal on Essence Flux. It was worth to play AP because you could AoE heal your team for a really incredible ammount. It was nerfed, then removed. This removed nearly any incentive from building him AP apart from his ultimate. A reallly long time after that, His AP ratios were buffed, and he got hybrid scaling on Q and R to incentise AP builds. Even so, the hybrid ultimate ratio still makes AD oriented builds More powerful, since you can attack in between. He has, since the loss of his heal, and probably even before, been an AD carry, and that's the direction he'll be taking.
