Well, you are quite wrong. Its quite the opposite, in fact. Ekko does in fact need setup to be successful. There are a few reasons for that. 1, his burst is low without his ult (which he wont hit until 4 seconds into the fight, unless the enemy is chasing stupidly). 2, his stun is nearly impossible to hit on enemies that are aware (ive been playing a lot recently, and I havent been hit by that stun once yet, so thats a thing). 3, he has trouble getting to his targets. So yes, he needs setups.

And his kit is not overloaded at all. W slows, but thats pretty much irrelevant, since if you are in there, you would probably be stunned. Other than that, he pretty much only has damage, a slow, and his ult, which gives him healing and potential damage. Thats not little, but its not much either.
