But that's the difference. You're not going full crit, you're building situational defensive and on-hit items, reducing Ezreal's crit, and making that Infinity Edge more of a waste. That build in your screenshot has only 40% crit on it from items, nowhere near 100%. Your Gunblade, Triforce, and Cleaver all allow you to poke on the perimeter of a fight with Mystic Shot.

Myself, I'd dump the IE and get a Bloodthirster (more AD for Mystic Shot and Trueshot, plus lifesteal sustain, and it's 830g cheaper), or a Manamune (just as much AD as IE when you have a BV, but massive mana pool sustain, and 1720g cheaper!!!).

Sure Akali is an anti-carry assassin, but if you have a BV and some Magic Resist to keep yourself from getting insta-blicked by her, your team can actually pull her off and protect you. If you have 30 MR and 2000 HP, with no spell shield, you are just going to die instantly. If you have no CC protection you are just going to get melted every fight. Etc.
