Many modelers are projecting an increase of the frequency and intensity of El Nino events compared to La Nina events (see references below, and the attached image of a summary of Nino 3.4 forecasts for January 2016). However, what many people ignore is that such an increase in the El Nino events will mean an accelerated increase in global mean surface temperature rise; which effectively means that ECS will be greater than for GCM projections that average out the ENSO influence:
