Who Wins

Pre-6, you win the 2v2 decisively — your level 1 axe damage is the highest in the bot lane, and Blitzcrank's Q threat keeps Ezreal permanently out of his optimal trading range.
Post-6, you continue to win if Blitzcrank has his Q available, but Naafiri's R engage on a missed hook can flip the fight, so you must respect that window.

Your best pattern is to catch an axe, walk up to auto-attack Ezreal when he steps up to Q, and let Blitzcrank W-speed toward him to threaten a hook — the dual pressure forces Ezreal to E away and lose his trade.
If Blitzcrank lands a hook, immediately commit with W active to maximize burst before Naafiri can respond.

Slow-push the wave by dropping axes intentionally to stack the wave, then crash it into their tower — this forces Ezreal to tank tower shots or lose CS, and Naafiri has no safe way to reset the wave without taking poke.
A large wave also gives you a natural reset window to back and return with items.

Do not drop your axes by repositioning carelessly — losing axe stacks in this lane is a direct DPS loss that makes you beatable in extended trades.
Ezreal's Q poke is designed to make you move, so pre-position your axe catches to minimize forced movement.
