True Damage Ekko Tweaks

RiotRiot Eggo McLego·11/21/2019, 9:51:35 PM·1 votes·50,066 views

Greetings fellow humans,

We have a couple of True Damage Ekko updates for you today!

Based on feedback surrounding True Damage Ekko, we agreed that his hair looked too sparse in certain animations. We’ve fixed the texture in patch 9.23 to cover more of his head without altering his overall look very much. Again, this is already live, but wanted to make sure that everyone who chimed in about this was aware of the change!

Secondly, seven of True Damage Ekko's chromas went live in patch 9.23, but we have one more coming in patch 9.24. Due to some adjustments we wanted to make to that eighth chroma (‘Obsidian True Damage Ekko’), it was not included in time to be a part of the bundle. The pricing on the bundle correctly reflected the seven chromas, so those who bought it were not overcharged for eight. But with that said, the Obsidian TD Ekko chroma will not ever be a part of the chroma bundle, and will only be available for purchase individually.

Thanks again for sharing your thoughts and for your time! Riot Eggo McLego

YOU DON'T KNOW ME!

Anyway, thanks for the update, and for the hair tweak! Looks much better with the texture tweak, and I'm glad you guys found a way to resolve those concerns that didn't require model or animation changes. I was already happy with the skin, and now I'm happier. :)

Hello, Like I can see a few people before me has written before me I also want to express how awesome a toggle for Ekko's hood would be.

It is a feature that makes a skin (like night hunter rengar) much more dynamic and fun. True damage Ekko looks so neat with the hood on, great design, as displayed in his recall/homeguard animation. It would be very cool if it could be toggled on, a feature I would certainly use in many of my games.

I am guessing that many players of Ekko would really appreciate this change! :)

Have a great day, and the new chroma looks sick! Ekko Thanks BR Felix

So is the obsidian chroma that blue and purple one we are seeing in the collection previews? Thank you in advance.

Noo...! I had already decided not to get the special event chroma or border and I'm late now. I wish you'd show us from another angle, not the sidewhich isn't what you usually see ingame.

That's a really nice change, thank you so much.

The TD Ekko Icon looks even more matching with the skin in-game with this change.

I'm hoping (the same as kai'sa) when you click ctrl-5 we can put the hoodie on. Please riot. Ekko has been atleast in my top 5 for years now. Hoping atleast this small tweak can happen.
