Is Ezreal really that bad?

Asked on August 20, 2016

Just to clarify, this is in high silver - low gold.
Recently when playing ranked, I see a lot of people hating on Ezreal, saying how he is **** and don't provide anything to a teamfight. If I didn't remember wrongly,they went along the lines where his global is garbage compared to Jinx's, his poke is terrible compared to Cait and his potential to actually carry a fight is low compared to Vayne.

i don't play ADC and when I do, I just play Draven, so I'm just asking about people's opinions. Mayb one from high elo if possible, too.

Ezreal's fine right now. He's a really safe scaling ADC, so his impact isn't as apparent early in the game compared to stronger laners like . Once you have though, he starts dealing a ton of damage.

I'd rate him pretty high compared to a lot of ADCs, a little below the really strong/popular picks (Jhin, Ashe, Sivir). Maybe just below .

he's probably right below the tier 1 meta picks (jhin ashe twitch sivir)

He's probably on the lower half of the adc tier list but he's still decent (i.e. playable). ~~Caring~~ Getting mad* at people who pick slightly subpar champions in silver/gold is just pedantic. If you play better with than with any higher win % adc you'll still probably win more sticking with him.

*EDITED: Caring about slightly subpar champions can be useful in every elo. It's just that in lower elos you will get much more improvement out of polishing mechanics/strategy/knowledge than from only sticking to strong picks. **** picks can still affect your performance though (I think and have around 42% win rate in bronze/silver/gold).
