An Ekko tweak that might please everyone?

First off I don't think ekko is op. (Not counting tank ekko before his base's get lowered).

He does have a lot of utility though.

What I propose is making the slow from his Q only process on the RETURN.

The return is pretty easy to Dodge, and this will really help squishies who have a hard time getting away from him. It would make it harder to perma stick to people but still let him make good plays.

Thoughts?

Not sure what exactly you are implying.

If anything his W should be nerfed. An aoe ranger slow+shield+stun with passive %health damage is not what I call balanced. Maybe make the stun a super strong slow instead but assassins shouldnt have any kind of hard CC with the burst and mobility they have if you ask me.

Maybe the actual shield strength, but the stun is quite easy to avoid.

Very clear sound when he uses it, and that's when you clear the area.

Idc. It's impossible an ekko goes a full game without getting his stun off once and an assassin stunning is not healthy. most stuns are easy to avoid that is part of the game.

i just want the delay on the Q going to go down. it takes too long, thus making it so freakin easy to dodge. i'm talking about poking, not going all in on your enemy. i can only hit the initial hit, never the damage going back because of that long ass delay, they can just move out of the Q range

Yeah... that's what Ekko needs. A buff!

Help! The Q return speed is so slow it's hard to land. I'm forced to dash in on them while they're slowed and kill them in melee! As a melee champion, this is UNACCEPTABLE! What, is the slow and poke just there to set them up for me going in on them with my absurd melee damage and three-hit passive? Lame! I want to kill people in lane with just my Q! Ekko should be able to poke down everyone while also staying crazy safe and having more utility than a support. WTF Riot, where is the balance! I'm giving up Ekko over this.

This has been an exaggeration for comedic purposes, but the point is real. Friends don't let friends ask for Ekko buffs.

NaCl-y

I agree. but then again it might be a problem because the skillshot is so slow you could make the argument you'd never be able to get the second proc damage on regular circumstances. so maybe they need to make it faster

Or we could just make his cc scale with AP, and only break even at like 400 AP. That way he's forced to go ap if he wants his cc.
