Ezreal vs Sivir

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

Ezreal wins by punishing Sivir's short auto range and (E) cooldown with skillshot poke.
The lane turns on wave states where Ezreal can land (Q) without minion block and preserve (E) for safety.
Ezreal scales better and wants to avoid extended DPS trades before item spikes, leveraging poke and mobility.

Trading pattern

Hit Sivir during last-hit animations when (E) is down and enemy support is out of zone range.
Avoid trading if (E) is available, as it blocks your key poke and wastes your cooldowns.
Use (Q) poke through low-health caster minions to chip Sivir safely before she can retaliate with (W).

Danger windows

(E) blocks your key poke, making stepping forward risky until it is on cooldown.
Avoid aggressive trades when (E) is up and enemy support controls brush or engage zones.
Post-(E) cooldown, be cautious of support follow-up engages exploiting your limited all-in threat.

Early game

Use first three waves to thin caster minions and create (Q) poke angles that avoid minion block.
At level 2, hold (E) to dodge engage or counterattack after Sivir uses (E).
Punish Sivir's last-hit attempts when she steps out from minion cover, but only if enemy support cannot punish.

Power spikes

First completed item enables repeated (Q) poke to contest wave and dragon setups more confidently.
Two-item spike increases poke threat, letting Ezreal control fights before Sivir can engage or sustain.
Level 6 (R) adds global pressure to trim waves and finish low-health targets, supporting mid-game objectives.

Win conditions

Convert poke damage and wave control into health leads, forcing Sivir into unsafe recalls.
Crash waves after item spikes to take turret plates and secure dragon vision.
Use (E) mobility to reposition safely in teamfights, maximizing DPS while avoiding (W) damage.
