Give Ekko's W The Swain Treatment

Kivolan··3 votes·312 views

Stun / Slow needs to scale with levels.

There's no reason to get extra damage, a 2.25 second stun and a shield for one point in a skill when Swain gets a whole 1 second root for the same thing.

1 / 1.3 / 1.6 / 1.9 / 2.2 second stun

1 / 1.5 / 2 / 2.5 / 3% health extra damage

20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40% slow

Rioters have already responded to a thread exactly like this and are checking out ways to do it. Please do not duplicate existing threads that have been appropriately responded to. It comes across as farming upvotes at a certain point, because everyone including Riot is on board with this idea, or at least playing with the idea.

IIRC, they're looking into doing it with diminishing returns to prevent a gazillion second stun, but they are already looking into nerfing him appropriately to give AP Ekko the proper edge over tank Ekko rather than let him continue wreaking havoc.

Sorry, didn't realize I'm supposed to go through every post ever made on the boards to make sure it hasn't already been made. If I wanted to farm upvotes, though, I'd start posting in the memes and games forum...

There's a search engine on the site.

Took me three seconds to find the thread I was speaking of.

Now if only you'd respond to the posts that got massive attention after I'd already posted about them days in advance only to get ignored / downvoted. =/

Seriously, there was no harm in this post besides echoing a sentiment that was apparently already shared by a lot of other people. My apologies for not seeing the other post, I didn't realize that it would be such a big deal.

I'll give you a thumbs up, this actually seems like a really appropriate way to nerf Tank Ekko that also wouldn't destroy AP Ekko.

NO NO NO NO. Are you insane?

Ekko is already in a STRONG place. He needs NERFS not buffs.

Where on earth do you see a buff in this thread?
