^ It depends on your team, and the quality of your opponents. High-level Ezreal players will build zerkers, because strictly speaking they are the best offensive option for an R-DPS champion that's upgrading their boots anyway. CDR is nice, but Ezreal is primarily an autoattacker when played this way, and you can get away with it because your team will protect you. In this case, it is worth it.

On the other hand, if you roll with knuckleheads, zerkers are a dangerous option. If you find yourself in 45+ minute games where your team is winning but can't close out the game because of poor tactical decisions (IE, they ace the enemy team but instead of going for the neck, they go kill Baron), or when assassins like Akali get free reign all over your face because your teammates can't protect you, or when every teamfight is a mess because nobody has proper spacing... you are playing in the Moron Zone and should consider CDR boots or Merc's, otherwise you'll just end up slitting your wrists. Ezreal is not the kind of carry that can just throw the entre team on his back and drag them across the finish line after farming for an hour, like Jax.

This is why copying the build of high Elo players is not always a good idea, btw.
