So I just got to play against a tank Ekko again.

What the actual fuck Riot?

Why is a champion allowed to have superb mobility and utility and assassin level damage while being ABSOLUTELY UNKILLABLE?!

I mean, it was kind of weird why they buffed a totally balanced champion three times in a row, but tbh since the juggernaut rework I have lost my complete faith into the balance team. I simply assume from the get-go that these guys are mentally handicapped with not a single clue on how to do their job - that saves me usually a lot of anger since they can't fail any standarts if they are set that low after all.

But... despite having set the lowest possible standart for these guys, and they still managed to get below that.

This is not a new thing. On his release we had THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. Then Ekko got nerfed. And now they BUFFED him again AND GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED? THE SAME SHIT ALL OVER AGAIN.

Not to mention is his pattern is absolutely toxic. You can't outrun him. You can't duel him. WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? NOT LANE IN THE FIRST PLACE? AFK AT MINUTE ONE?

He kind of just slipped through I think, it happens with changes all the time. I am guessing he will be slugged by the nerf hammer next patch

Ekko is fine i've beaten every ekko i've played vs who built tank he is strong midgame but gets outscaled hard and later in the game can be easily shredded by adc's

idk why people suddenly complain about tank ekko top right now, i am a ekko main and i am telling u full tank ekko do 0 dmg and if u feel like u took too much dmg from him u are probably sitting still letting him aa u for free/not punishing his mana cost and cd.

Yeah sure. The moment something is obviously broken the "mains" come crawling out defending it.

Go annoy someone else.

release ekko was built tank anf wad too strong. rito nerfed his base dmg by a lot and tank ekko was not seem for a few months and no complain about him being tank at all. all of the buffs done on ekko after the nerf was either mana cost reduction or cd reduction, no base dmg was iincreased.

if ekko's base dmg was too high tank ekko would not have stopped being played after the nerf. he is doing the same dmg he did after his big nerf, he had been balanced for the months he is balanced now.

Wouldn't it be possible to code the Nami Ult as a lot of tiny projectiles?

I do understand that Akali as an assassin needs massive damage and mobility, but...
