It's a shame that your "opinion" hurts your performance. Dropping Rageblade means reducing the effectiveness of the IE, since you don't have enough AS to feed autoattacks from just Triforce and your passive. You also have overlap in unique actives with two Gunblades, and wasted resources in extra Spell Vamp which doesn't do very much for Ezreal. Never mind how cost-effective the Rageblade is, or how easy it is for Ezreal to get stacks (2 stacks just for hitting something with a Mystic Shot, and none of his moves require targets).

Also disagree that AP Ezreal is mostly about the ult. He has the strongest ult of all builds, to be sure, but you also get a big pile of damage from Lich Bane and his W, which is the other reason that you stack AP. Sorc Shoes don't do anything for the extra Mystic Shot damage from the Lich Bane on-hit, and running around with no CDR aside from runes and masteries is such a huge waste. You reduce Arcane Shift's utility greatly by not cutting the CD on itself and the Mystic Shot that feeds it, never mind that it's much harder to keep the ult off cooldown for teamfights by the same token, or keep W's buff going.

Nice that it works for you, but it'd work better if you weren't handicapping yourself.
