I'm not saying Ekko is OP or broken, I'm saying his kit is obnoxious. All champions should have fair tradeoffs and he doesn't.

Using Vlad as an example, he has AOE damage and sustain, and in return, he gives up having poke, mobility, and hard CC.

Ekko has mobility, poke, AOE damage, sustain, a shield, hard and soft CC, and the only thing he gives up in return is burst damage.

I'm well aware that he is countered pretty well (in the laning phase, at least) by poke champs like Azir, Xerath, Ziggs etc.

I just think that their are certain things in his kit that really don't need to be there in order for him to be a solid champ.

Like does he really %hp damage passive on W?

Does his innate passive really need to not only slow his opponent, but also give him a movespeed boost?

Does his ult really not need a mana cost?
