There was a time when Riot Games didn’t know what to do with a League of Legends role wandering alone on Rift: Toplang. All these years it has always been associated with tanks or fighters.And we rarely saw champions or assassins with high damage because that role was best filled by other characters in the game.
Usually the community itself starts making new and surprising choices like Jana, Karma, Kane, or even Lee Sin, but this time we’re going to talk about one of the options that confuses everyone. A generation of gamers, an assassin who turns to the dark side and deals magic damage hated by all for breaking. We are indeed talking about building Ekko and his tank in season 6.
The main monster to defeat in season 6 is Eco Tank
We go back to Season 6, when The Herald of the Rift was introduced to the game, and the dragons are different every game.which makes the objectives more important throughout the game. At the same time, a new group of champions has changed and characters that have now become classics like Talia or Jin have entered the MOBA of Riot for the first time.
However, there was one particularly overlooked role, which was largely due to low tank levels: the top lane. In the absence of a good champion, the community decided to play with different champions. It will have decent damage but can also max out the fight with a good amount of HP. That’s when Eco stepped in, and thanks to his passive and his W, the champion became a real headache for opposing top laners.
Time Shatterer had it all: good lane phase, lots of Riot damage, pretty decent skill set and CC because it’s passive, before 6.22 it also slowed enemies. Add to that the fact that it’s a solid tank with powerful items like the Suncloak and Freezing Gauntlet and You have a monster that can take on anything that comes its way because thanks to its ultimatum it can last much longer in a team fight.
This left Ryot between a rock and a hard place for several months, wondering if he could just give up or if it was better to change. Eventually, the developer decided to change its damage and scale to destroy it from the upper plane. It was fine while rolling, but the Ekko Tank made a splash among the best nimble gliders on the competition track.
