An ekko nerf.

So we see now ekko is a little....... stronger...... than he should be. What would I suggest nerfing. Not his numbers Not his range Not the stun duration. Not even the heal amount

I would remove the interaction with his stun and zhonya’s.

There is no reason he should still get his stun when he in in zhonya’s and even less reason he should still receive the shield while in it either.

?????????????? Your nerf makes no sense.

I’m a little confused on how that even effectively nerfs him. That’s such a niche situation that it would likely not even effect his winrate if the mechanic was removed.

It’s not niche at all. This is a common strat to auto win dives.

To quote a wise man, "Zhonya's isn't broken, it's just the only defensive item that works." Looking back on your match history, the only time I see an Ekko building Zhoyna's is in your last game played. And it was his 4th completed item if you include boots. He was already pretty ahead, and if he was using Zhonya's in such a fashion that he'd deny engages, then that's perfectly fine. If Zhonya's was truly the item that made Ekko OP, then why did you not build it two weeks ago? The simple reason is, because it's a niche mechanic that can provide area denial safely, but at the cost of initial damage, and with a 2 minute cooldown. It's a gimmick, and it worked that time. But it certainly isn't as effective as it is with Swain or Fiddlesticks, and it isn't why he's strong right now.

Are you actually using an example of me playing ekko for the first time in 2 years as a reason zhonya’s is a gimmic?
