Ekko isnt that strong.

People just like to complain a lot.

I didnt really say anything before until i actually got to play him myself. but he is a skirmisher as riot intended him to be. He has Delays on every single one of his abilities. Sure he can burst you if he hits you with everything.

So can Xerath, his q has long delay coming back, his w has a 3 second delay before it can even "potentially" do damage, his e has to dash first before the attack, and his ult detonates to where you were 4 seconds ago. unless your using it to initiate, or just sitting in zonyas, i dont even know how you would survive in a teamfight long enough for your shadow to catch up to you and hit everyone with that ult.

Everyone is making him out to be insanely powerful, but after playing him myself, i realize that champions like, kat, lb, and zed will have no issues outbursting him in 1-2 seconds. he is a slippery champion because of his ult ya. but that just makes him another hard to "kill" mid laner, welcome to the club(fizz, leblanc, zed, ect.)

I called for Ekko nerfs while i was in the Pbe

The issue with ekko is his shield/stun, yes it takes a good amount of skill to set up how you want to, but it rewards you way to much when you do it.

think of singed qulity of life snare change, imagine if they bummed it up to a 2 second stun, simply cut the shield down, it makes much harder to kill then he already is, his butt pounding damage is fine, i mean he is an assassin. but he is the only assassin with a shield, and this shield is just about the size of sion's, a full tank.
