tank ekko's Q

Kiokami·Aug 17, 2016·2 votes·664 views

i've been playing against tank ekko tops and jungles alot, and i've noticed something.

as he puts more points into his q and builds one CDR item, he starts being able to throw his q again 2-3 seconds after it returns. can you please make it so that ekko's Q goes on cooldown AFTER it returns instead of after he throws it?

its pretty obnoxious that he can be so tanky, while having a spammable slow, and extremely high sustained damage while being tanky.

it's not uncommon for an ekko with to top damage at the end of a game by a massive margin. he just doesn't ever die. the only down time he has is if he's unfortunate enough not to get blue buff.

"tank ekko's Q" implying that regular ekko can't throw his q out just as much if not more than tank ekko?

regular ap glass cannon ekko can die if his execution/decision making is bad. he generally needs his R to escape a bad fight.

tank ekko can initiate poorly, soak a ton of damage while dishing out lots, and either press r to cancel that initiation, OR spam his Q relentlessly and run away.

AP ekko is not a problem. Tank Ekko has been a problem since shortly after his release when people realized how broken it is to build him tanky.

I think the fact that he distinguished it was tank Ekko means it's just an excuse to complain about it (although the forums have already proved that people don't need one).

I don't think its ekkos CD thats the issue, I think it has to do with how easy it is to get bonus CD now, if Tankko were to buy item 3025 item 3065 he has already reached 30% CD, with runes or masteries he may already be at 40%. I feel its the items give him the tools to be strong not so much his kit anymore.
