A lot of Ezreal players will tell you that it's not a good item for him, but I personally like it, especially if I know I will have less farm (AKA I am in a sidelane). With Ezreal's base mana at level 18, capped mana bonus on Manamune, and either Sheen or Triforce, Manamune is giving you +72 AD. Add a Banshee's Veil, and that number jumps to almost 80.

That's a pretty solid AD item, and it only costs 2110g (compare that to Infinity Edge, or Bloodthirster). It's criminally easy for Ezreal to cap the extra mana on it, too, because of Mystic Shot, which applies both the ability bonus and the autoattack bonus. And the MP/5 and mana pool of the item, allows you to spam MS basically as much as you like.

Don't build it too early, though. The Tear of the Goddess doesn't do anything for your damage output, so going for something smaller like Doran's, Wriggles, or a Brutalizer might be worth your while.
