Ezreal is one of the oldest ADCs in League of Legends; however, I often find myself asking the question: "Can I use my R while doing something." I decided to create a guide and analyze most of the possible interactions of Ezreal's Ultimate Ability during the standard League of Legends game.
Ezreal's Ultimate - Basic Information
First of all, let's just set up some basics and information about how Ezreal's ultimate ability - Trueshot Barrage works. It deals magic damage to enemies and scales with both AD (Attack Damage) and AP (Ability Power). This ability cannot critically strike. It deals lower damage to minions and monsters by 50%. It is a global ability, meaning you can snipe a champion from across the map. It deals a lot of damage and can turn the team fight's outcome pretty quickly.
Ezreal's Ultimate Interactions
First interactions that allow you to use your ultimate while under the effect of these skills or items. What's interesting is it doesn't work with most of the items. You just cannot use them while casting your ultimate.

Works with:
- Using Summoner Spells (Excluding Teleport)
- It has an awesome interaction with Flash
If you Flash while casting your ultimate, you will move immediately to the location that you flashed. Fortunately, you will still cast Trueshot Barrage from the place you were standing before flashing. It makes for a great mechanic that can allow you to dodge incoming skill shots aimed at you while still casting your ultimate and confusing enemies in the process.
Does NOT work with:
- Zhonya's Hourglass (Survivability Magic Item)
- Stopwatch (Zhonya's Component)
- Prowler's Crawl (Lethality Item)
- Galeforce (Critical Strike Item)
- Hextech Protobelt (Magic Damage Item)
- Everfrost (Magic Burst Item)
- Goredrinker (Sustain Bruiser Item)
- Stridebreaker (Mobility Bruiser Item)
- Hextech Protobelt (Magic Damage Item)
- Ezreal's E - Arcane Shift
Ezreal's Ultimate is a channeled ability, but it does not get interrupted by most hard CC. I will list the Crowd Control that does not interrupt Trueshot Barrage.
- Knock Aside (Draven's E)
- Knock Back (Aurelion's R)
- Knock Up (Alistar's Q)
- Pull (Aatrox's W)
- Charm (Ahri's E)
- Fear (Shaco's W)
- Taunt (Galio's W)
- Silence (Cho Gath's W)
- Disrupt (Kassadin's Q)
- Drowsey/Sleep (Zoe's E)
- Stasis (Bard's R)
- Stun (Ashe's R)
- Suspension (Nami's Q)
- Suppression (Malzahar's R)
- Disarm (Lulu's W)
Some skills do interrupt Ezreal's Ultimate. Abilities like Spell Shield or items like Banshee will block Trueshot Barrage, so be careful. Some of the skills that can block your ultimate are:
- Yasuo's W - Wind Wall (blocks untill placed)
- Braum's E - Unbreakable (only blocks first shot, then takes reduced damage)
- Gwen's W - Hollowed Mist (only Gwen in invulnerable)
- Pantheon's E - Aegis Assault (blocks for the shield's duration)
- Samira's W - Blade Whirl (blocks first couple of shots)
- Any invincibility like Tryndamere's R or Kayle's R - blocks the damage
