AP Ezreal cuts out a large number of competitively-viable junglers/bruisers because they either have no CC, soft CC, or conditional hard CC. Shyvana, Lee Sin, Mundo, Olaf, GP, Irelia etc, goodbye. Puts a lot of weight on the other lanes if you want to combine Ez with these guys out of AP mid.

Concentrating on Armor destroys Lich Bane. Destroys. Without Last Whisper, without the ability to crit, HP/Armor scaling combined with healing/regen shuts down your poke game.

Poke teams require a specific configuration. This is because they are generally vulnerable to teams that can force an initiation.

AD Ezreal is not shitty lategame. AD caster Ezreal is, but AD carry is not.

Hybrid is legit. It's a good balance between burst/DPS, and has cheap itemization.
