Ezreal vs Twitch

Confidence highUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

This lane turns on Ezreal's ability to poke Twitch out of minion range before Twitch can stealth engage.
Ezreal wins short trades by landing (Q) safely and avoids extended fights where Twitch's DPS and stealth matter.
Control wave near your side to punish Twitch stepping up for ranged minions without overextending.

Trading pattern

Punish Twitch when he steps out for caster minions by landing (Q) plus autos if enemy support cannot immediately trade back.
Hold (E) to dodge Twitch's engage after his stealth or to reposition safely after poke.
Avoid trading when (Q) stealth is available and support controls brush or engage zones.

Danger windows

Twitch is dangerous when (Q) stealth is up with support nearby; avoid stepping forward without (E) ready.
After using (E), you are vulnerable to Twitch's all-in; respect this cooldown before committing.
Watch for (R) piercing autos in grouped waves or near support; avoid clustering to reduce damage.

Early game

Use the first three waves to farm with (Q) through minions and punish Twitch's last-hit attempts if support threat is low.
Win level 2 trades by landing (Q) before Twitch can stealth and engage.
Avoid pushing too hard early to reduce Twitch's stealth angles and deny his all-in windows.

Power spikes

First completed item spike lets (Q) poke control wave and objective setups; use repeated (Q) to soften Twitch before fights.
Two-item spike strengthens poke and cooldown cycling; contest dragon and plates by landing skillshots first.
Level 6 (R) enables wave clear and low-health target finish but does not replace lane poke and safety.

Win conditions

Convert poke damage and lane pressure into forced Twitch recalls or lost plates before first item spikes.
Use lane priority and (Q) poke to help secure dragon vision and objective control.
Scale safely into mid-game where Ezreal's mobility and poke outclass Twitch's stealth burst in teamfights.
