So I tried the new Stormraider's Surge on Ekko Today...

The amount of Movement Speed you get between his Passive and Stormraider's is hilariously insane. Late game you're clocking in at around 900 MS per proc. Takes running circles around the ememy to a whole new level. I don't know if it's worth it over Thunderlords, but man it is the closest you're going to get to "gotta go fast" in League.

Tip: Ahri makes your life hell. That slow resistance works on her charm, you just run towards her crazy fast.

Doesn't matter. I finally found someone here who doesn't take Thunderlords.

Funny thing actually. My Ezreal in one of the games was thoroughly confused by it. Said he'd never seen it in game before. We live in dark times my friend.

Get Riot to make a "Little Slugger" skin and life will be complete

Point Guard Ekko. His Q is a basketball and his clock hand thing is a basketball pump.

Heck yeah. They need to make a whole Basketball team.

Like they did with the Pentakill band.

But why even bother?

You already get 600 MS without it, which is more than fast enough to dodge any skillshot and TL synergizes with you too well.

Whenever someone says GLHF to me at the start of a match, I return the HF to them, because fun is a liability.

Nothing is ever fast enough.

Yes, and so do the other 120 champions.

Does it hurt to take other Keystones rather than the overused Thunderlords?

What happens if you get feared?

SpecterVonBarenJan 17, 20161 votes

Same thing that happens to Yi I'd imagine.

The hilarious fear of running away at 900 ms

Vistha KaiJan 17, 20164 votes

I'd say that's very realistic.

I mean, if you are running in fear you should be surpassing your normal limits due to adrenaline boost, not hunker around like a cripple

It is just glorious fighting an ulting Yi as Fiddlesticks. "Okay, seeya halfway across the map."

Same thing that happens when you fear a Rammus or Hecarim . They zoom off like team rocket into the sunset.

Same thing with Yi I guess. Fast running away

I love it on Shaco, none of the other masteries make sense on him, but this one's perfect. It's also really great on veigar

MavenSongJan 17, 20162 votes

Hell,you could run circles around quinn in ult with that speed!

The LexerJan 17, 20162 votes

Hate to brake it to ya, but a level 3 quinn ult isn't very different from an Ekko with Stormraider's, but if you take into account that Ekko has time on his side, anything is possible

MunchCrunchLunchJan 17, 20162 votes

best ekko is tank ekko.

Stormraider's Surge + Sona + item 3100

haven't tried it yet, but it seems to look good on paper

edit: ye....not as good in game

KynamiJan 17, 20161 votes

Problem is it removes a multiplier from your damage during lane phase. And Sona needs every kit extending multiplier she can get since they've outright balanced her around having practically every last one of them.

AND THEN Fiddlesticks FEARS YOU AND YOU RUN THE WHOLE WAY BACK TO YOUR BASE.

I take it on Mordekaiser. Really helps with chasing enemies.

The LexerJan 17, 20161 votes

I main Ekko, and I think the MS from his passive alone is enough to dodge pretty much anything assuming you aren't daydreaming (it happens more than I'd like). I always take TL for the damage (also procs on passive :D) It would be fun to use Stormraider's tho....

dr lichdeathJan 17, 20161 votes

and how does it go with ap rammus? who just is in base?

Stormraider's is probably going to end up as that mastery that is actually hilariously overpowered in certain contexts but gets picked far less than it should because people are drawn to the DeePS and it's more complicated to judge when taking the situational mobility it offers is the better option.

Slow resistance works on her charm? Funny, that doesn't happen for Master Yi in his ult, which is supposed to have 100% slow resistance. During Yi's ult, if he gets charmed, he slowly walks towards Ahri.

I have no problem with that though, I'm just saying :P
