I kite bruisers just fine with Ashe. Suck on that Ezreal.
Spent the whole day gaming just to advance to next division. 14 games in total. Last 2 games, 2 afk'ers. How is this fair...
God, what a game... Seemed good at the start: Jayce vs Garen and Fizz vs Ahri, should be easy wins, right? Well, at 15 minutes Jayce was 1/5 and Fizz was 0/4... IDK, maybe Jayce believed Garen when he said he would let him win if he fed him 10 kills early? :S

This is the same exact discussion about Xerath, lol. Just because a champion isn't as safe as another one, it doesn't mean it's worse. Ashe has one of the longest range and the most CC in-built in an ADC. She requires better positioning management and thought than Ezreal, but she is by no means "a troll pick".
Saying that she's bad because Olaf kills her when he Ragnaroks is stupid, because Olaf using ragnarok kills anything.
And that said, she's one of the most picked ADCs in Asia. She appeared in tournaments a few times with the Azubus if I remember right.
The thing with Ashe is that she is very team comp independent. (One comp I run with my friends is Pantheon, Nocturne, Lux, Lulu, and Ashe--it's a wicked mean comp if you play it right.)
She is by no means bad.
But she isn't a great champion to pick in solo/duo queue.
No, it's not. Xerath roots himself to gain extra range, it's a setup-thing. Ashe is just worse than the other ADCs because her kit is outdated.
Sure, if you can get a whole team to protect her, she works. But that goes for any ADC. I'd rather take Vayne, Kog'maw or Twitch then.
(I'm also not very fond of Ashe, because that "lololz I can slow forever"-thing is annoying as hell. Dying to weak-ass auto-attacks because you can't move anywhere isn't exactly exciting gameplay. Luckily, a lot of champions have tools to get in her face and murder her these days.)
It's actually a pretty good item on Ezreal because of his Q. It's like a stronger AoE Ashe Q on a pretty short cooldown.
Iceborn Gauntlet.
So every time I'm in mid, Leblanc combos me before I can pool and takes away 2/3rds of my HP. I recall, and the same thing happens when I get back to my lane. Get focussed in team fights by Leblanc. Get flamed by a friendly Volibear because I didn't want to 2v2 Leblanc and Thresh under their tower. Messed up my masteries for Vladimir though, went Offensive AP instead of Defensive AP, as Voli kept spamming he wanted Teemo (and we worked out that I went support) just for him to instalock Volibear.
EDIT: Volibear went AFK for the first half of the match, so I wasn't expecting to win. I was just expecting balanced champions.

the beta name was frozen fist lol, I always get it mixed up.
It's a very strong item on Ezreal. It gives him utility, and kinda replaces triforce for him. Procs off of his Q so you can chase/kite people very well. Also has cdr on it so it makes it so you can cast your Q more often. Very strong item on him.
