Best reasons to get Ez tend to be the following:

1. Mobility: Ezreal's arcane shift makes him near impossible to gank if it's off CD and he has proper vision o the map. The only real champs that can catch ez tend to be ones that have long range gap closers (Kassadin, Vi, Nocturne to name a few). This also makes him a very mobile champ that can split push very well or get away from a bad teamfight quickly. It ensures that if you see a teamfight going south fast, you can get out and still defend your tower.

2. Synergizes well with a LOT of teams, especially ones that have autoattack junglers or top laners like Nocturne, Riven, Yi, or Jax. He can chase well and poke most champs down pretty fast.

3. Global Ult: His ability to steal objectives, prevent towers from falling (By ulting the minions).

4. Counters kill lane supports like Leona/Crank really well. An Ezreal is a Leona's nightmare cause he can use cast Arcane Shift before getting cced and still shift even if he's cced. Meaning he can shift out of blitz hooks or drag Leona to his tower if she uses Zenith Blade on him. The only way to stop Ezreal's Arcane Shift or his Ult is to kill him.

5. Seiging: Ezreal actually does very well both when his tower is being seiged and when he is the one doing the seiging. I can't tell you how many games I've gotten a good kill lead (Yes got kinda fed), and been able to hold my tower 1v3 or even 1v5 in somecases His minion clearing, poke power, and ult allow him to hold or even force champs away from seiges.

The big one is still number #1 there. If you see the enemy getting a lot of gap closing champs or champions that burst/cause large AoE stuns like: Jarvan IV, Volibear, Katarina, Kennen, Blitzcrank, Leona. It's like a good idea to pick Ezreal if you see 2-3 of these kinds of champs
