Read from Ezreal's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Sivir.
This is Ezreal's own plan; across 22,274 pooled games the lane is leaning Sivir.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ezreal | Your Q out-ranges Sivir's auto and Boomerang Blade so level 1 harass favors you. |
| Level 2 | Ezreal | At level 2 the W-Q poke lets you chunk her whenever she reaches to Ricochet the wave. |
| Level 3 | Ezreal | Level 3 your combo range and refunds keep you dictating the trade cadence over her. |
| Levels 4-5 | Ezreal | Levels 4-5 you still poke freely as long as you respect a single Spell Shield. |
| Level 6 | Ezreal | Level 6 Trueshot Barrage adds burst and global pressure her utility ult can't match. |
| First item | Sivir | At her first item On the Hunt plus completed AS lets Sivir shove and roam ahead of you. |
| Two+ items | Ezreal | With two items your safe kiting and max-charge Q reassert control in extended fights. |
Levels 1-2 you have the cleaner poke: your Q out-ranges her auto and Boomerang Blade, and you can last-hit safely while chipping her whenever she reaches for a minion. Respect the Spell Shield only for your big trades, not every Q. Aim your poke at the moment she winds up a Boomerang Blade, because a Sivir mid-cast cannot raise the shield. If the shield is already up, throw something cheap into it and keep the real trade for two seconds later. Her clear costs a lot of mana this early, so shoving is how you take the lane without ever winning a fight.
