EKKOS kit is not nearly as toxic as Yasuo. Nor can it snowball as hard. Also will have a hard time coming from behind unlike yasuo who only needed a stattik when he was released.

his damage is insane thou my friend is on the pbe so he sent me screen shots of ekkos damage readout..his passive can do around 900 damage itself the mobility on his ult is broken allowing him to recall in the enemy base fill up on health and mana and instantly teleport back to the enemy base along with several other things it looks like hes in need of a massive nerf already so unless they balance him better before release he will hopefully get razed to the ground

He explodes. His damage is all tied into short range meaning he has to be in danger to deal it. Zed is far more toxic then Ekko hell most mids will devour him and if he goes top he will lose hard to a decent bruiser.

900 damage on his passive? and it requires 3 Attacks to proc. So it ain't that easy to get the damage off esp as a melee champion.

Oh and just so you know I am on the pbe and have actually played him.

I am not saying he isn't strong but he does have a lot of counter play and risk vs reward.

He is actually fairly balanced. People just don't know how to play against him. Keep in mind he is a ap Assassin. He can blow people up but not if you are careful with positioning and use your abilities wisely.

he has far more mobility and knock up on almost a5 second cooldown if you're using your q and double shields in teamfights and even though he's Melee he still has far less risk vs reward then ekko.

Even with that I would still consider him balanced

he has one ranged ability that's it if you rely on that solely for his passive stacks you're not going to do any real damage

Yasuo was actually really weak on release. Which is why they buffed him four patches in a row. Which was two buffs too many, so then they nerfed him a bunch after.
