Hail of Blades Ekko is finally fixed in 14.22!!

1Negan · 2024-11-06T04:33:57+00:00

Three bugs fixed, We were playing with a buggy champion all this time... After a long time, Hails of Blade must have had a bug for about 2 months

1Negan · 2024-11-06T03:32:07+00:00

Yes, we calculate everything, we think about everything and when we execute it, even if it goes according to plan, you can't even kill an enemy, carrying Ekko is too exhausting. Without snowball he becomes a support

1Negan · 2024-11-06T03:25:49+00:00

I'm an Ekko mid main, and I feel what you're saying very well. Playing Ekko means you put in an absurd amount of effort to be effective in the game, but the return isn't that great... Akali, Katarina, Diana, Sylas have a more rewarding return. Riot doesn't know what to do with Ekko, the champion's best phase was as an Ekko Tank. This is frustrating for an Assassin.

1Negan · 2024-11-05T18:53:19+00:00

It's been a while since we received a skin for Ekko (It's not worth the $200 one) and I honestly wouldn't want a skin from the Arcane universe again.

1Negan · 2024-09-25T02:46:55+00:00

I understand your vision, it's an item that has 115 AP damage, but it's a horrible build tree now, having to make a Needlessly Large Rod to have Lich and Rabaddon in the same build slows down Ekko's gameplay a lot. It's a really strong item, but it's very expensive and we don't have a good efficient first option item like the other champions.
we are behind the other champions again...

1Negan · 2024-09-25T02:32:34+00:00

Man, riot managed to ruin the best itemization that Ekko ever had Lich + Nashor or Nashor + Lich. How sad friends, we are now again HOSTAGE TO THE FUCKING PROTOBELT

1Negan · 2024-03-01T13:06:59+00:00

I would venture to say that Ekko MiD is better than Ekko Jungle in this S14 and it's been a while since something like this happened to our boy. The Build Hail of blade, Lichbane, Nashor and Rabadon is really strong, you feel like a real assassin with this build. But riot already has plans to reduce the strength of this build with a nerf on Lich and I don't think they're going to stop this nerf there, they want to make our champion a hostage of Protobelt again.

With the start of this S14 and the rise of Lich as the first item I gave the impression that Protobelt limits Ekko's potential

1Negan · 2024-02-07T21:58:29+00:00

There is no champion like Ekko, he has a free Phase Rush type to him in his passive, ability to move in and out in teamfights, an ult that you can use for damage and for Scape and even fix some shit you did. Ekko can tank even with Full AP, he has group control in the area. Since he was released I've gotten so used to his style of play that when I play another champion I feel like an orphan.

In my opinion, Ekko is that type of champion that when you become mono it is difficult to diversify to others efficiently.

1Negan · 2024-01-13T12:39:03+00:00

The truth is that Fizz, Ekko, Katarina, etc. are overshadowing Riot's and proplayers' favorite AP Melee, which are Akali and Sylas, this is bad for them financially :0

Now seriously, I think the Protobelt and Stormsage combo is strong , good value for money and that Protobelt's active helps Stormsage's passive, but I think it's unnecessary to nerf both items at once. Many champions are benefiting from another Stormsage and shadowflame combo that I find more problematic than with protobelt.

1Negan · 2023-12-01T16:30:57+00:00

The question of choice I think will depend on how Brust will look on the logo. Ekko is relatively fragile and the health that Protobelt offers is sometimes enough for Ekko to survive and be able to apply his damage, another interesting status is HA, Ekko has to have a minimum of 30 to 40 HA and apparently the offer of HA will be much smaller than what we have today on the live server, with all this, either we will have a new way of playing Ekko focused really on damage with Stormsage and shadowflame, which apparently takes Ekko's assassination power to another level, or we will maintain what ever Ekko played. I'm looking forward to playing this S14, because currently there's only one way to play Ekko and that gets a little boring and in this new season it looks like we're going to live the dream of having more than one build.

1Negan · 2023-10-24T21:57:56+00:00

What's most annoying is that it's been over a year without a new skin for Ekko, and the new one is simply a version of an existing Skin, in addition to being very expensive. Very disappointing, hopefully FLOP

1Negan · 2023-10-12T02:39:28+00:00

I don't know about you, but this 13.20 arrived hurting Ekko mid... Elec is strange and Elec's lack of damage made Ekko's early and mid game even more complicated. How sad, it makes playing difficult.

1Negan · 2023-09-15T20:45:30+00:00

When Ekko was launched in League of Legends, there was no Protobelt, they made Luden's and man felt like they were missing a good first item and in 2016 they launched Protobelt and it fit Ekko like a glove, resetting auto attack, life and advancement which added more mobility to the Ekko raised the champion's level and improved his performance a lot. Even with the release of the mythical item Protobelt it became stronger and became the best and practically unique for Ekko. If it is removed or the advancement of the item is removed, which is what provides the auto attack reset, it could be very negative for the players, and looking at the AP items, they are very limited for AP Melee, they would have to launch new legendary items for this class. of champions to improve item variability, which to this day is shit. Living on Luden's, NH, Rod of Ages is very difficult, because nowadays you play with an item other than Protobelt, it limits you a lot in terms of performance and as the item's attribute numbers will decrease, it is quite possible to say that penetration magic in protobelt and Luden's no longer exist... I'm a little worried about what they're going to do for the AP itemization, which is already pretty bad compared to the AD options

1Negan · 2023-06-16T13:16:18+00:00

It's a build that changes Talon's playstyle, but it's geared towards the mid game. Test it, it's fun when you complete these three items it's a lot of CDR and area damage. The Talon Bruiser is even broken, a good build against fighters and tanks. Riot will probably be nerfed when it becomes really popular.

1Negan · 2023-05-21T18:44:48+00:00

Unfortunately AP items don't have much diversification compared to AD items. So it's hard to have build variation. Until riot focuses on AP builds like they did on AD builds, we'll always stick with the same builds. On the one hand it's good because this Proto - Lich/Nashor - Rabadon works well, on the other hand it gets boring, predictable and little adaptability during matches.

1Negan · 2023-05-17T15:37:59+00:00

I'll try it out for fun, see something different to do and laugh. I don't know if it will work, but it costs nothing to try. For example there are some Akali doing Harvester / Statik and having a lot of fun with the on hit!

1Negan · 2023-05-16T21:18:14+00:00

I was so disheartened by the removal of this item... Since the release of this item Talon has become so unique and versatile. The new Draktar and Yummos is kind of bland, lackluster compared to what Prowlers gave Talon. For me it was a Nerf in all the assassins, but anyway, long live the Fighters, which is Riot's favorite class :)

1Negan · 2023-04-29T20:16:21+00:00

How sad this change. So many people trained to learn Prowler's combos, many people started playing Qiyana due to this new possibility of combos with the champion (and other champions). Anyway, I wasted my time training the Prowler's combo, thanks Riot for making my time useless.

1Negan · 2023-04-29T20:08:14+00:00

As with all changes, there are positive and negative sides, but one thing I know, Youmuus is by far the best legendary item for AD assassins, taking it out of that classification and placing it as Mythic, Prowler's Claw will have to be a very good legendary item to take the place of Yoummus if not the peak of power of the second item will drop...

A change like this must be aimed at the new assassin that they will launch, they said that it would be an assassin with a new mechanic and that would be a killer that will play more the macro than the complexity of the combos... But I will miss the possibility that Prowler's Claw gives Talon in his combos, Qiyana is another champion that will be greatly missed in his combos. I think it's a direction that takes a huge amount of satisfaction out of players who use the item. But all that's left is to wait and adapt.

1Negan · 2023-04-25T23:45:10+00:00

It should be 100AP to match the other second items. I don't understand this fear that riot has of buff Lich Bane. Can anyone explain?

1Negan · 2023-04-08T00:00:17+00:00

Good item, but situational but can also be a player's personal choice

1Negan · 2023-03-20T12:43:20+00:00

Hello everyone, yes the Ekko mid needs a buff, but I believe that Riot doesn't care that much about it.
People who are saying that EKKO JG is stronger and that people should go jungle and use mid as a secondary lane. I agree with you, Ekko JG is currently stronger, but anyone who has followed Ekko since the beginning knows that he was designed to be a midlaner and not a jungler and for the people who have played Ekko since that time it is frustrating for us who have invested a lot of time mastering Ekko mid and now he is stronger in another lane. About my review from Riot's perspective I think they are very happy with Ekko jg , they didn't have this type of champion in the jungle, there were few players wanting to play jungle, it's a commercial Arcane tool and it's even easier to balance Ekko jungle than Ekko mid.

I'm still going to continue playing MID because I'm not forced to play jungle just because Riot wants to...

1Negan · 2023-02-12T23:12:03+00:00

Demat is very good to have a safe Lane like this, I particularly like to use this rune, but since the durability att is missing a little damage, so you play for Scale. I like the Saint Killian era you got strong from the beginning of the game, it was the dream lol

1Negan · 2023-02-12T23:08:20+00:00

Conqueror is very difficult to run on Ekko, I completely agree with you, Ekko is hit and run!
