Jhin or Ekko

So I've been saving up 6300IP for a champ. I've been watching some video, reading stuff and so Ekko and Jhin caught my attention. I know they have different roles. But both seem fun, deal a lot of damage, aren't too easy to play etc. IMO Jhin looks cool af, but doesnt have mobility (to me it isn't a really big deal, but a champ with mobility is nice), but on the other hand Ekko is a mobile champ (that looks awsome when played right, I mean those dashes look SICK), but looks like he is sooo harder to play. So do you guys have any suggestions on which champ I should buy? Maybe give some pros and cons of the two champs? Ty in advance :)

If you don't buy ekko you hate black people and orphans and therefore are a terrible person

I haven't played either champion (well, that's a lie, I played them both in One-For-All once each), but I think you would get a lot of enjoyment out of Ekko once you get through the first bunch (I mean bunch) of games. He's got a ton of outplay potential and a lot of things that you can do with his kit. He can also be played in three different positions, mid, top, and jungle, whereas Jhin can only be played mid or bot. However, mobility isn't everyone's thing. If you don't think you're mechanically skilled enough to pull off Ekko plays even with lots of practice, it might be a better bet to go with Jhin. His skill ceiling and floor are both lower than Ekko's, but he's still a strong and cool pick regardless. He has an amazing character (lore-wise), and it feels really good to be able to control fights at a long range. His auto attacks are also really satisfying when you get a lot of attack damage.

I'm going to vote Ekko because I don't know your champion pool and what you like to play (and whether you want a break from your normal champion types).

In all seriousness I have a lot of experience with both and ekko is a champion with insane potential and creativity and once you get the hand of him he is easily on of the moSt rewarding and fun champions in the game
