something like this should not be a thing while he builds full tank and yet still being able to burst with high damage not needing any ap itemization whatsoever,
while having compensation buffs like increasing ap ratios would be better since it will force him to build Ap itemization instead of what hes doing right now
MLDzXnRRR3 votesHis burst is bad, it's his CC and mobility that allows him to do dmg to you. You can check his base dmg and compare to other AP assasins like Fizz, Diana, Akali, LB. There are many midlane mages with better scaling and better base dmg than him that are also RANGED...
Hahahahyena1 voteshis burst fucking chunks you if you havent noticed, all he does is e q auto and runs back to his minion wave before taking any real damage, thats why everyone is playing him tank because he has such high base burst so why the hell not abuse him before he gets nerfed
xl Kirito lx1 votesWhich becomes next to nothing outside of the laning phase. He's sticky, but he isn't bursty.
Hahahahyena1 votesafter the laning phase he becomes a fucking menace because of how much his passive chunks and how sticky he is, you cant chase him because of his bs e cd, you cant run from him because of his bs slows, you cant focus him because of his goddamn ult, you cant fight him because of his bursty combo (yes it is bursty because it does too much fucking damage even when tanky) so yes he really does need a nerf

The first part of the Q has poor base and bad scaling (+10 % AP). The dmg of his E is pathetic - 50 / 80 / 110 / 140 / 170 (+ 20% AP) If you eat double Q + E + passive, he deals dmg, but that's his full combo. His passive is also bad compared to other 3hit passives (but has CC attached to it), check Jax and DIana's bases and scaling and they don't have a cooldown on them, so they can build attack speed to abuse it (champs like VI, Vayne and Gnar have % hp, so they can damage even tanks). There are champions with really high base dmg and they can build tanky - Blitz is the worst offender
Magic Damage: 80 / 135 / 190 / 245 / 300 (**+ 100% AP **

Detonation Magic Damage: 250 / 375 / 500 (**+ 100% AP**

Average QWER burst is ~1000+220% @18, Ekko's is ~1100+300% @18 and Ekko gets a lot of scaling from AP in utilities.
Ekko's bases are unremarkable and average.
Issue he's running into ATM is more that living twice as long doubles your damage, building twice as much damage doubles your damage, and mage/AP itemization is nothing compared to Tank/Fighter itemization right now.
ofart1 votesIt's already on the PBE. Riot doesn't want tank Ekko to be strong and they're improving his AP ratios and nerfing base damages.
