I still can't believe they released Ekko as he is...

Yes he is squishy in general, but aren't all assassins squishy in general?

His Q is a mage Q, dealing from 120 at level 1 to 280 damage at level 18 (+80 AP). This may be easy for most champions to avoid but not minions.

His W is a great way for him to initiate with little hassle. The passive is just "icing on the cake" killing the champion before they can react.

His E allows him to travel to enemies (dealing damage) and allowing his Q to fly there and back real easy.

I don't mind the R, but with it being free...

Ekko does take practice, but in general, he's like Vayne, no matter what, his late game is unstoppable. Forget killing him when he has 2 sustains, a stun, 3 different slows, a shift, and a teleport. He has more sustain that most tanks.

I like his design, his character, and his abilities, but they need to be toned down.

(If I see this post go into the negatives, I know that the community has gone under and does not like the fact that they cannot just go in and kill enemies with ease like they use to with all the other champions that were nerfed to stop it.)
