Is Ekko tank still a thing?

Bent Pixels··1 votes·2,631 views

I’m seriously wondering lmao. I was playing a ranked game a while ago and we only had one tank on our team compared to the opponents two tanks and although i wasn’t playing ekko, i was wondering if it was still a thing if i were to get back in this situation?

also, if it is, what’s the preferred build for it?

thanks!

RIOT nerfed it because tank Ekko and tank Fizz were too strong in season 6 i think it was. I think off tank is still pretty good though on Ekko.

It is not.

Now, a durable item or two is good on him, of course. But he's not viable as what was considered tank Ekko anymore.

which item do you consider “durable” for him? i usually always have the hextech protobelt for him which provides some health. any other suggestions?

Grabbing Proto and both defensive mage items is about as durable as I'd be willing to go on him. A possible Abyssal might work. I wouldn't get any more defense than that, however.

You can go hybrid (at least one damage item) but full tank is pretty bad.

It is not and it's good.
