I bought him way before this sharade with pulsefire ezreal. You can play AD or AP Ezreal but there are 2 main differences between them.

AP Ezreal farms very hard. Mystic shot scales poorly with AP and you will mostly deal minor damage. Your primary damage should come from Essence Flux, Arcane Shift and Trueshot. You will shred other low health champions but will be overwhelmed with minions. Very squshy but very mobile. Viable but needs a lot of skill and position.

AD Ezreal farms very easy. Your Mystic shot is your primary damage output while Essence flux is used in dueling to gain advantge over other attack damage carries. It does a huge debuff of 40% attack speed which is very useful in dueling. Your Arcane shift will be your bread and butter. You can position and escape out of sticky situations. Not to mention it will leave a place in your summoner spells slot for another spell since you dont need flash.

Build for Ezreal should be oriented around armor reduction and hitting with huge damage. So building Trinity force, Black cleaver and Last whisper can not only help you, but they can also help your team. You will be reducing 45 armor of a single target and help your team take it down way quicker. If carry arrives, debuff and make them cry, if tank arrives, shift and make him cry.

Someone escapes, aim steady and wait for the sound. That is the way how ezreal should be played, poke around and then crush your opponents, not like other carries (Ashe, Vayne, Sivir) which only require right click. All of Ezreal's skills are skill shots, so when you meet a good Ezreal next time, respect him, he knows how to play.
