AP Ekko is in a terrible spot after changes
Late game was never AP Ekko's weak point however his early game is way worse than it was before. He can get shut down really easily now because his base damages suck and needs to snowball to be effective.

This isn't a bad thing. That champion has terrible design and is extremely unfun to play against.
May he rot in peace then.
Ekko's design is flawed. He's probably gonna need a rework at some point.
Riot keeps dodging the problem that iceborn and sunfire are broken. Until they acknowledge that we are just gonna see gutting after gutting.
indeed. jungle ekko was extremely hurt. ap ekko was hurt as well. sure they buffed his ap ratio. but its nearly impossible to use your ult to kill someone as an assassin. and hes one of the squishiest champions when you go full ap. you don't have a fizz E on a low cooldown. and fizz still does more damage. there is no reason to play him ap instead of fizz really.
they need to give him a new ultimate or an another source of damage that helps ap builds. allow him to ult people he locks down with his stun.
Wasn't he significantly buffed this past patch or two?
AP and Jungle Ekko seem terrible, tank Ekko still seems completely playable and perhaps even still too powerful. Ekko's whole design is atrocious, he just needs to be Eve'd, made worthless for a while until he can be reworked.
I'm not sure what is to be done. I like AP ekko, but I absolutely despise tank ekko. If keeping his early game really weak keeps tank eeko dead, then so be it imo.
