When laning, use Void Rift to kill minions while building stacks of Organic Deconstruction on your opponent. You can then follow up with your other abilities.

Use Arcane Shift to help line up your other skill shots.

You can line up Trueshot Barrage to hit multiple minion waves or even Monsters.

You can play Ezreal either as a Attack Damage carry or Ability Power carry depending on how you build him.
