@Meddler Are you guys happy with the current state of Ekko?

With the recent changes on Trinity Force, people started building that item on Toplane-Ekko. It seems like full AP Ekko (like hes meant to be played, right?), just isnt strong enough to be played right now. I'm just wondering if you guys are happy with the current state of that champion right now. That he's pretty much only played as a Trinity Force-Offtank-Toplaner. Also, are you guys maybe planing on making Jungle-Ekko viable again? With the recent nerfs (that were targeting Tank-Ekko), Ekkos early Jungle clear got really slow. Meta-Champions like Nida, Graves or RekSai simply outfarm Jungle Ekko heavily which makes him not viable at all.

Ekkos early jungle clear has always been slow compared to similar champions. Jungle Ekko is perfectly viable right now, the 2 main ways I would recommend building him are:

Full Tank = (Cinderhulk, Triforce, Dead Mans, Spirit Visage, Zhonyas / GA, your choice boots) OR AP Bruiser = (Runic Echoes, RoA, Zhonyas, Abyssal Sceptre, GA, Ionian Boots

Full AP Ekko mid or jungle is still viable but very high risk high reward, generally only for very experienced players
