==Strategy==
Ezren Ghal is a mid-range DPS caster who has a focus on sustain. His abilities have long cooldowns, but in a fight he mostly relies on '''[RMB/LT] SOUL FIRE''' to deal damage. He has some of the most burst damage out of any caster, and great crowd control as well.

Despite being a caster with a focus on {{buff|steal|life steal}}, Ezren Ghal can be quite squishy. When playing as Ezren you need to be aware of flankers and assassins who would want to pick you off. Save '''[E/RB] WELL OF SOULS''' for personal peel or for team pushes, and always use '''[Q/LB] SPECTRAL FORM''' as an escape.

==Tips and Tricks==
*You can {{term|run|sprint}} while using '''[Q/LB] SPECTRAL FORM'''.
*Souls return to you on a delay. If you have 3 souls and you collect another soul, you can use '''[RMB/LT] SOUL FIRE''' before that newly collected soul returns to you. This means you can fire off 4 '''[RMB/LT] SOUL FIRES''' in a row.
