Why this duo works

Zilean can speed Ezreal into a better angle, zone enemies with Time Bomb, and rescue him with Chronoshift. Those tools complement Ezreal's safe range and make it easier for him to keep poking without spending Arcane Shift.

Playing the duo

Time Warp increases an ally's movement speed and Chronoshift can revive them, while Ezreal's Arcane Shift gives him a second repositioning tool.

How to play as Ezreal

Use Zilean's speed to reposition for skillshots while keeping Arcane Shift available as your escape; if you commit forward, let Zilean know so he can time Chronoshift.

How to play as Zilean

Use Time Warp to help Ezreal take a safer Mystic Shot angle or retreat after a trade; keep Chronoshift for a fight where he commits with Arcane Shift.
