Banning a certain AD carry is like banning a Yi. All AD carries will be borderline OP sometime in the lategame. Or something like that. Not entirely like that, but you get my point. Banning an AD carry, in my opinion, just doesn't do enough.

I think the reason why Ezreal is considered extremely strong, if not OP, is simply because of the skin. The skin introduced a lot of new players to Ezreal, and therefore introduced a lot of new talent into the field, allowing the knowledge of how Ezreal, could, should, and would be played to expand exponentially, thus giving people the knowledge, and the impression, that Ezreal is strong.

It's not that he wasn't strong before. It's not that he was weak. It's just that there wasn't enough people playing him.

Get a legendary Heimerdinger skin, and have tons of people play Heimerdinger, and suddenly Heimerdinger will become the next OP champion, just because, as I said, there will be lots of new talent/perspective on the field.
