Ekko: "Mage Assasin" let's look Passive: bigger chunk of damage that gives you movement speed, Talon approves Q: some skillshot you throw and than it comes back giving passive stacks and slowing ppl down Talon approves W: mark AOE area almost size of Orianna ult after it's activated and ekko is standing proceed to stun all enemies inside while giving him shield that scales with 150% AP ratio it also has some missing HP passive that I didn't even notice before Nautilus approves E: a dash activating stronger autoattack and a blink to enemy target Talon approves R: instantly go back 4 seconds before healing yourself with 60% ap ratio and 150% damage ratio also increased by 3% per 1% lost in last 4 seconds, the damage is aoe and most of the time ekko resets himself to full hp and to safety or next to enemies that will get damaged to hp low enough for assasin to take out Talon approves Sylas approves

Looking at him back Ekko is no longer a Mage Assasin He is: Mage Assasin Skirmisher Burst Battle Mage Diver Catcher

there you go, get right to the meat of the issue. now me, the 1.5mil ekko main, doesn't have to come in here spitting facts about him receiving no dmg buffs and for people to instead focus on his W. inb4 some responder says "and nerf his dmg" clueless that he got no extra dmg for his buffs.

Or increase R CD at all ranks. It's 50 secs at rank 3 without CDR.

Nerf E damage Nerf W Stun duration Nerf Q Slow Nerf W Slow
Buff Q Damage considerably Buff R Heal so he heals to Full Everytime

Hes honestly not even that bad mid even having to deal with Q + E + Auto Electrocute Ignite there is much more cancer mid to deal with. But his Jungle should be nerfed. If Riot really wants to force him into the jungle role his laning role would need to be severely gutted to be an effectively balanced Jungler. And, if they don't want him to be a jungler and focus on his mid balance just take away his ability to jungle that they just recently gave him. The problem is in low Elo Players don't know that you can contest vs him early as he gets very low in the jungle, so things like Graves, Olaf, reksai etc. and to just play early accordingly like they have an ekko

Z-Drive Resonance NEW EFFECT: Bonus damage is now doubled versus monsters, capped at a maximum of 600 damage

I think his main problem is that his stun + slow combo is too reliable followed up by the damage ekko provides within a gank.

Ekko was fine before. Completely fine. They just gave him so many unneeded buffs it was crazy. The problem comes when you overbuff a champion so hard, that even its mains are glad you're finally nerfing it. The champion doesn't even require skill now like he did before - they just buffed his R cooldown and W stun duration hard for legit no reason.

They won´t nerf Ekko.

This would require RIOT to actually perform an action that would improve the game and they have proven that they incapable of such actions

Tbh first off nerf his jungle , W stun (not working vs monsters in jungle) and nerf shield ratio.

Any nerfs to Ekko will just allow him to ult to a previous point in time before he nerfs.

What about range nerfs? Some Ms nerf And CD on R?

Tendieslayer1/31/2020, 3:52:51 PM1 votes

He needs a nerf but the best way to counter him are mr tanks like mundo maoki and galio as long as he dosen't complain to his team.

Nerf Ekko, rework Tryndamere, nerf Syndra: why would riot implement any of these smart reworks?
