Well... If you've seen the Pbe patch notes you see that ekko have finally been finished off in the nerf his w is now useless and his ult won't heal anymore sadly he's gonna end up just like Lucian because all of you complain and called him OP when he wasn't thank you league community for ruining another champ because your to lazy to learn to play against it :(
RIP Ekko you will be missed :(
Sythriel Draken2 votesIt makes AP mid ekko playable now. A lot of people have been playing ekko as a semi tanky eve type jungler as of late and not a whole lot of people have been building AP on him.
now if only they could stop champs like kat and leblanc from 3 shotting you before you even get a chance to react....
ZephyrDrake2 voteswho knew, an assassin type champion being able to build tanky is dumb! now you actually need to build AP if you want to have the benefits of being tanky... but wait! that also means your abilities deal more damage since you are also building more AP now. Yeah he is so screwed because now you have to build him properly and not this tanky assassin BS that he is able to do right now

He does well enough building ap in the jungle with Runglaive and Zhonya and abbyzal as it is now way easier to build after their cost reductions.
And this changes dont hurt his clearing as his shield doesnt last long enough for it to matter on the monster when you can just stun it and his level 6 ult is actually buffed. So his early game isn't really hit.
Trebbi1 votesHe gets more scaling as to make people actually build AP on him and he will in total scale better.
** Ekko Parallel Convergence (W) shield value changed to 80/100/120/140/160 (1.5 AP) from 150/195/240/285/330 (.8 AP) [NOTE: So that's base value DOWN and AP ratio UP. ] Chronobreak (R) heal reduced to 20% of damage taken over last 4 seconds from 20/25/30% Chronobreak (R) heal AP ratio increased to [6.66% per 100 AP] from [3.33% per 100 AP]**
Calabok1 votesHe is balanced now. You just want him OP again. No way Jose
