Xerath is a range, poke champion. Ekko is a melee champion. Granting him that additional stun durration makes easier for him to either escape, dealing little damage, or commit and risk getting killed. If Xerath had this stun he could escape to a safe distance and still utilize his massive poke. Also, the 3 second delay for activation gives a pretty good amount of time to react. I'm a little impressed by it's cast range but again, Ekko has to enter the zone to trigger a stun, meaning he is still putting himself in danger. This said, he seems to be a very mobile champion with a 50/50 split of cc and displacement skills. To me, this would justify SOME nerf to him in general but I personally hope it wont be too harsh. X
