Uhm...it's actually Caitlyn beats Ezreal. Assuming both players are at an equal skill level at least. "Don't get zoned early game." Yeah, sorry, but good luck trying to stay out of 650 range the entire lane phase and still last hit efficiently. Even if you use Mystic Shot to farm,  it can't guarantee every creep.

Against Caitlyn, back the **** off once you see Cait's passive, headshot up. It's fairy nasty taking one in the face early on, and with her range, it's easy to take one for free. You can see it taking effect once you see her hands glow red. Since she outranges you, she can get free shots before you do, so try not to duel her. Keep a close eye on her, so you can see when she uses her Q, Piltover Peacemaker. It takes a second before firing, so get ready to move out of the way if you see her use it. If you have trouble, then start with boots/3 pots so you move faster, and hide behind your creeps since the more targets Peacemaker hits, the less damage it will do at the back lines. Watch for her traps. The last thing you need is to step on a cupcake for her to lane 2-3 easy autos and maybe a headshot along with it. Once she hits 6, stay healthy in lane, never less than 300HP, otherwise pray that your support has fast enough reflexes to move in the way of the ulti, asusming they can survive it.

Caitlyn's biggest strength is obviously her range. It can be a pain in the ass to chase her down since she can just 90 caliber net you, and then you take an easy Q to the face since you've been slowed. Try not to fight unless you're ahead in items, your support and your summoners are up, you have your jungler coming. If the Caitlyn is competent at all, then she knows she can hide behind her own creeps to block your Mystic Shots. If you absolutely, HAVE to poke her down, then start leveling W over E so you can hit her over the creeps, but still taking a point in Arcane Shift at level 2. Don't spam W otherwise you will OOM. You shouldn't be using E much anyways unless you see hard CC incoming or you have to escape. Caitlyn naturally beats Ezreal, so don't be afraid to ask help from your jungler or mid lane (NICELY PLEASE). It won't be surprising if you find yourself behind in CS score.

End game, she does more damage overall, but you work better in teamfights. You can boost your team's attack speed with W, and you can reposition yourself, not to mention your ulti has the potential to hit everyone on the enemy team, and mystic shot can poke the enemy down a bit before a full on initiate.
