Ekko IS the easiest champion
Seriously, it's like Riot created a champion so that even bad players can make ''plays''
Sure, his kit is not as straightforward or faceroll as Annie or Xin, but it's still an easy kit to learn. Only his W needs some time getting used to.
You can literally build him however you want, AP, tanky, AD, etc and he'll be just about as effective no matter what.
Mid, Top or Jung his strong early kit allow him to trade with almost anyone.
His ult is literally an undo button that allows you to undo any mistakes you may have done. Seriously. Almost dead? Press R. Enemy standing near your clone? Press R. Your fps dropped to 1 and you can't tell what the hell is going on? Press R. Your cat fell asleep on your keyboard? Press R. And everybody will be amazed by how awesome your play was and how you outplayed the enemy team.
