Ekko W proposed change

Since there is an Assassin rework coming around november, I thought I would throw out an idea.

When he pops it, Ekko's W is a 2 second AOE stun. Stuns are not exactly unique.

What I propose is that when Ekko pops his bubble, he "Pauses" all enemy units within it for 2 seconds, freezing them in time.

This would not only stop them from acting, but stop the progression of any timers on them. Additionally, it would cause any attacks/spells directed at them to be delayed until after the pause, at which point all of them would instantly hit at once (If you have seen Quantum Break, think the "bullet stacking" mechanic in that game).

Still sounds like a stun

Yes, kinda.

Most of the effects of a stun are in there somewhere, but some are missing, and there are a few other things added.

For example, if you landed it on a Fiddlesticks who was channeling his ult, this would not stop his channel, only delay said channel.

If he hit someone on the enemy team with some buddies around, Ekko and his pals could bash on the sucker for the duration of the stun, all their damage frozen in time, until it chunks them as soon as they unfreeze.

Would still perform much the same task as what Ekko currently does, but it would just feel more like HIS spell.
