So, i was blind to ekko being op before but now after playing against him 5/10 games (instead of the normal 1/20) ekko is simply uncounterable, he has sustain, he has a ult that can be a global life saver that also does half the enemy teams health, he has a gap closer, he has a stun (that's a little long) he has a passive that helps gap close / burst out targets he has everything he also has Extremely good ap ratios now and tank ekko is still very very viable if not op still, ap ekko is just broken out of belief, now im a ekko main but i really cant stand him getting banned so i cant play him (61.5% At time of writing) the avg ban rate across all champs is 4.7%, now lets talk about being uncounterable he does dmg if he doesn't farm, he does tons more dmg if he farms, he wins lane if he gets one early kill, used to be my biggest threats as ekko were Poppy Nasus and Sion (if i didn't get a early kill) But now i just demolish them, if i build full ap i can dive them e q r and 1 or 2 of there mildly tanky solo lanes are dead (i actually with my full build e q'd a 5k health garen and got the 2 shot) i also destroyed anyone who built mr and i destroyed anyone who didn't build it, it simply doesn't matter From a ekko main to riot, nerf ekko, nerf zed then ill play your broken as fuck game again

His kit just doesn't make sense. He has so much mobility + base dmg and high scaling + if tank tons of health. Even if you try to play save he'll just use his multiple gap closers and kill you anyway. Then you might think "your team would be ablt to kill him then, not?" oh no he'll just get 700 mov speed to run away due to his extremely op passive. That is the thing that needs the nerf and makes tank Ekko so viable, like why dont they see this? His passive dmg is just so fking high and then on top of that he'll get tons of mov speed. "its a three hit passive it should be stronger than normal passives" yeah, haha, not. His passive is guarenteed to hit everytime anyway. If they would just tune that down. Also 10/10 games are against ekko if not banned, just gets boring you know and also why would he get banned so much riot? ever thought about THAT?

Ekko needs a nerf. The sky is blue. The moon is round.

Hi, ive only been playing league a few months but i do believe ekko needs a nerf. I mainly play mmorpgs. World of warcraft and guild wars 1 and 2 vet. You give the power of time to a class and its powerful. But in an mmo pvp being able to control time isnt considered op (magetome warp or guild wars chronomancer) its a nasty utility with ekko hes given this insane ability to high bust dmg n do it again aith a shield that defeats dianas and jannas own shields. Hes incredibly overpowered. I think the protection from his shield should be severely reduced. His ability to revert time should also be reduced. Playing agaisnt ekko from the get go is way too hard if i play agaianst him i have to plau safe the whole game. N from lvl1 he can alrdy tower dive me. nerf him please.
