As someone who doesn't play Ranked often, I can't say much about my Ezreal score (8.1/5.1/8.1 average KDR, 194.7 creeps with only 27 games, lately I've found my Caitlyn is doing better with 9.1/3.9/6.4 KDR, 206.4 creeps and the same amount of games), and hell... a good chunk of of the losss I got with Ezreal were from getting pressured into doing Blue Ez.

Does that mean it's bad? No. I use variations of it myself. Don't like IBG so I use trinity instead since it offers more damage for me, and mobility (along with shiv. Trinity + Shiv is stupidly funny poke when you get a LW with it) which lets me farm and get around a lot faster.

Blue ez tends to be a build you use if you want to push a early mid-game win. If you win your lane though, Trinity Force has far more power, and with a shut down ADC, adding more damage, crit, speed, and AS gives you a sizable advantage over them.

For my laning I rush Vamp and then a bfs. If I cant afford a bfs early I nab a Sheen for some extra poke and damage until I can afford it. Sheen actually does help your laning considerably if you end up falling a bit behind. If you stay with the enemy ADC, getting a BFS shouldn't be hard, and with a good support, you should be able to get it off the first b or almost.

Blue ez still has the same problem with ez: His laning. His laning phase is not bad, but it's weak when he's pit against Graves, Cait, or Corki. He still can't handle getting bursted, and unlike Trinity Ez, he can't kite multiple enemies from multiple angles, and due to a lack of crit his only real damage tends to come from just Muramana, which degenerates throughout a teamfight. These issues make it hard to argue playing him when you are the main damage dealer, hence why people keep saying it's a situational build that doesn't work with everyone.
