Maintained says “It's pretty hard for Ekko to do anything to you. He can't ever solo kill you unless he is fed, especially with phase rush. If you ult him in teamfights when he dives in, he's likely to die before he can use his ult.”
Doubtfull says “Ekko can cancel your ult with his, and he has a lot of ways of sticking on you. Build mercs and try to use your movespeed to prevent him from being able to land his 3 stack passive. don't ult him unless he has no R.”
PsiGuard says “He has several ways to break or mitigate the effectiveness of your tether, and he has high burst which makes him hard for you to DPS. If you ult him, make sure you're aware of how many of his mobility options are on cooldown. If you don't get stunned by his W, you can hold your own 1v1 early.”
EUWRATS says “Not that strong, just make sure to take phase rush so you can catch him when he tries to run away after using his passive. Make sure to use R before he ults to kill him before he heals”
Doubtfull says “Ekko has a lot of tools to kite you, and can simply ult back to full health after your combo. This is an incredibly annoying match up for rek'sai. Be aware that he can ult your ult.”
Polarshift says “Your only chance to fight him is while he is doing his first clear. After that you wont ever catch him again. No, not even with Phase Rush (if hes good.)”
Caled says “Ekko is only strong if he can snowball early. If Ekko does not snowball early, Kayn should have a very easy time playing against Ekko. Take advantage of the fact that Kayn has a much faster and healthier clear, ESPECIALLY in the early/mid game. Prioritize farming early and try invading Ekko whenever you have vision of him on the opposite side of the jungle to set him behind even further. Ideally, Rhaast plays much better into Ekko and fights him with ease mid/late game. If Ekko does snowball early and starts to get really big, play for late game and try to scale as much as you can. Cool interaction to keep in mind, if you use Umbral Tresspass (R) and Ekko uses Chronobreak (R) while you are inside of him, you will be brought back to wherever he ulted.”
ak521 says “I personally hate ekko. Whenever he makes a mistake he just presses R and he jumps all the way back. He should not be that hard to counter. He has a slow jungle farm so he shouldn't be able to steal your camps if you keep them warded. Just like any other champion. You can't 1v1 him. Deals mediocre damage from range as long as he doesn't detonate his passive late game. CC the hell out of him if he E's in.”
nZk01 says “very annoying to play against as its hard to kill him, but u can try to kill him after he wasted his W on the 2nd buff meanwhile ur done triple camping and ganking, then just kill him early on, if he doesnt snowball champ is really mediocre early on and has 0 objective control pre 1st item and horrible ganks.”
lightrocket2 says “Ekko jumps to you which is nice but he gains a lot of movement speed so he can kite you. Take glacial and you should win if you have mana”
RedNBlue says “Ekko you can kill really easily early game especially pre-6 post 6 he will just be running from you so he will be missing out of farm and some action.”
nZk01 says “ekko has a really shit first clear so you can easily invade him after your fullclear with a laner, otherwise champ is rly bad pre6 so should be free.”
Polarshift says “Go for the Domination tree. You win against him in the early game. You can invade him at his blue or red buff. When he has his ultimate up, you can root him when you jump; preventing him from ulting while you try to oneshot him.”
Loul_60 says “Ekko has been pretty strong for a while now, and is pretty strong into Kayn too. If he's good he will ult when you exit yours to completely negate the damage. If you're Shadow Assassin, don't fight him in his W or you're dead.”
NixLychee says “This champion is a bit overtuned at the moment, with similar mobility to you, and more damage, as well as being able to nullify your damage with his get-out-of jail free ultimate. Invade him early, his clear isn't the healthiest.”
Doubtfull says “I'm not a huge fan of this match up. Ekko has a lot of tools to take you down and work around your drain. Unless you can 100-0 burst him before he can ult, its a rough match up. If he's smart he will build mercury treads which makes the match up really rough. Try to track him early game to prevent him from snowballing off of your lanes.”
LambWolf says “Ekko doesn't pose a threat early on. You can try to get pick on him. He mostly does 5 camp clear so you can try to get a cheese pick on his second buff.”
ANTHONYEVELYNN says “His ultimate has such a low cooldown going down to ridiculous numbers (like 10 seconds) at max rank that he can just go on you, trade his ultimate for yours, but yours will be on cooldown for next fight and his will be back up. Also so easy to play one of my top bans.”
IMissedMyQ says “He is very easy to deal with. You can smash him early game since you're stronger at every point (lvl 2, 6, and so on). He scales very well, and he has high impact in mid/late game teamfights, but you should be able to bully him and his lanes early mid game.”
FREAKSTAR says “Not really strong enough early to stop you from scaling up. He is really disgusting late game, but if you out gank him, and take the objectives, there wont be a late game..”
Kocykek says “He's a scaling jungler and his early damage is low. He will go straight onto your carry to burst him down, try to stun him as much as possible. You can W his E roll.”
GabrielGames says “You can block his E1 (small dash) with your W but if he's ahead you probably wont be able kill him. In early dont let him stun you and that's an easy kill”
chevy the sloot says “Tempo match up. If he gets ahead, he wins. If you get ahead, you win. You can 1v1 him at scuttle level 3-4 just make sure you're healthy, don't miss Q's, and dodge his Q and W. Also check for prio this guy is duelable early.”
RedNBlue says “Ekko shouldn't be much of a problem for you as you will be able to tank through his damage and he doesn't have a good cc to stop you from ulting. I know his e stuns but you can pop your ult just before it stuns you really.”
RedNBlue says “Ekko is the bottom of the extreme threats. But, Ekko early game is a lot harder to kill than some other assassin Junglers as he can stun you and dash away from your moves.”
chevy the sloot says “You clear so much faster than him and can also bully him early. That said he snowballs pretty big. Track him and counter gank him.”
sonminh says “Early game you can beat him as long as you don't get stunned. 2v2 is easy if coordinated correctly. AD is not that good, AP control is probably the best. CC locking him is hard, play front to back or back to front depending on how strong he is.”
Schadenfreude says “He will outkite you and he will outscale you. Try and take him down before he hits 6 because unless he is braindead, you're not going to be able to kill him. ”
Suseri says “Laning phase is fine but after level 6 he can kite you if you don't have enough damage. Try to dodge his stun field with your Q after he walked into it.”
Polarshift says “Fast guy, but you can Q along with his dash and fear him if he ever tries to escape. He cant burst you down since you should have your E activated the moment he tries to E-Q you. Be careful of W's out of vision and him going back to his R, however you can deny his ult by ulting him yourself when he's in kill range.”
KhaZix Mains says “[5/10] Can be easy to burst early on so long as you avoid his AoE stun and maximize your passive autos. Once he gets level 6 it'll be much harder to kill him with his ult available along with his burst potential once he has Runic Echos. Later on in the game you can try to bait out his R just be mindful of his ult clone or else you'll get obliterated without magic resist. Itemization is up to the situation but having Q evolve will allow you to win with much more ease. If you're having trouble with his healing consider picking up an executioner's calling or hexdrinker to prevent him from snowballing.”
Veralion says “Probably the single most overpowered champion in the game if played perfectly, and the one that I am the most sick of. Always assume his ult is up, it has next to no cooldown for how powerful it is. Avoid his shadow like the plague; not only will it full heal him, it will practically one hit you. Leave him alone unless you have a sizeable lead or catch him low; a burst champion like yourself can't cut through two and a half full life bars worth of health. If you go for a kill, stay in motion, darting in and out of range to keep him guessing and not let him land his W or R on you. ”
manco1 says “Ekko has a weak early game but still can one shot you all game. He does snowball so if he gets a kill early then you need to watch out. Once he hits level 6 he should be avoided because of his ult. ”
PulseBeat_02 says “Ekko is known for his gapclosing abilities. If he tries to use his ultimate or Parallel Convergence on you, black shield so you don't get impacted by the effects. He can easily use his R to also escape your ultimate if necessary. Make sure to look at his shadow/echo because you may be able to time a root perfectly.”
TheInkKingLoL says “Ekko has lots of mobility as well as good AP and his ult reset is a fight changer if used correctly. He would be worth focusing in a fight as he is usually considered a carry. Try not to ult him until he's used his ult in order to get most out of it.”
G Spot God says “Ekko is super fun to play, super annoying to play against. This is a fringe hard matchup but I give the edge to skarner because of the tankiness.”
Goldenstinger says “This is my ban - get this off the table asap especially higher elo. Check the tier list below for more info for threats. Anything S or A tier make sure to control ward your other buff and command your team to help respond to invades”
Do1HaveTh3Sauce says “His R counter's your R entirely if he uses it at the right time. He can deal massive amounts of burst damage to you and your team. Very squishy so you should take advantage of that.”
DarkAuraLOL says “Easy matchup based on my experience. Never struggled with ekko matchup. his early clear is slow, he loses alot of HP , you can most of the time spot him in his jungle low on health without his e, invade him 24/7 , go for his camps, cheese early, and fight him as much as you can, also once you get blue form, you can be fast enough to one shot him without him reacting with R”
Tormentula says “Ekko outscales Elise, and in general is just a better mid game version of her, but Elise is still stronger early and has the tools to counter his kit. When Ekko uses his big AoE W, you can dodge it and stall the shield itself with Rappel. I also like to play fights slower vs. Ekko, using Cocoon as late as possible so that I can kill him before he can press R. ”
Aurelius2142 says “BURN. BURN IT WITH FIRE. Ekko has the delightful ability to one-shot you at any time (the primary weakness of this build), and if you happen to get him in low in an early post-6 1v1, he can heal it all back anyway. Kill him early, or not at all.”
Karthus man says “An Ekko can wipe the floor with you, or, you can wipe the floor with him. Try to counter gank him and find him while he is vulnerable and kill him to get ahead. ”
liserith says “Ban worthy. After he gets his Hextech Alternator, he can burst you down in no time. As an assassin, he wins this matchup naturally, but with his ult and his insane damage, he's impossible to duel. ”
Chaddy Chapstick says “Ekko does a lot of damage mid to late abuse him early and put him behind. He is very slippery and can kill you easily if he has ult or is fed enough. ”
Karasmai says “Very rough to play against if he snowballs early but he has a very slow clear so by the time you full clear he won't be 5 camps in. Just make sure you or your team wards early for the early ganks if he gets a early gank off he can easily run the game over, I typically only go Rhaast into Ekko and itemize Goredrinker - Manamune - Tabi - Cleaver - Spirit Visage - Chainsword.”
Kayn Mains says “Early game you win fights but you likely won’t actually get to kill him as he can run away with his passive. Your clear is faster than his, so go for a different approach by just speedrunning to level 6.
During mid game you still out-duel him. Once Ekko gets his Chronobreak (R) however, make sure to track his shadow/hologram. If he uses his ultimate while you are inside of him you will follow. Avoid getting ported into a bunch of enemies or ending up in his AoE stun.
When it comes to the late game Ekko outscales both Rhaast and Shadow Assassin. Try to close out the game before he gets four items. If you don't manage to do so make sure to build some magic resist or healing reduction to counter his ultimate.”
Arfreezy says “Ekko is strong later in the game but has a weak early game and jungle clear. You should look to control both rivers by taking all neutral scuttle spawns and invade when you have lane priorities to deny his free farm.
In a 1v1, look out for Ekko's W which can stun you and give him a chance to escape or win the fight. After level 6 be aware of his time shadow's location so you don't get hit by his ultimate. An aggressive setup like Ignite+Phase Rush+Lethality is recommended to snowball this matchup before he can scale.”
Maile says “This is comes down to which jungler is better. Both champs can clear at a relatively similar pace so it comes down to your mechanics at early skirmishes. ”
Connweasel says “Extremely mobile champion, and deals a ton of damage. You can CC this champion and burst it down quick if you play with your time or get the jump on him. However Ekko has been one of the hardest matchups for me.”
ractick says “If he gets ahead of Kayn he will be extremely hard to deal with, with both forms!
Conqueror Kayn wins against him in fights in the early game though.
Blue kayn deals with Ekko better than Red.”
McSushi says “unless the player is horrible, you cannot beat him unless you catch him low hp with no spells ready. you HAVE TO either power farm or invade, which both are risky and not optimal.”
REXAI TurboSmurf says “ekko is not problem until he dont have ultimate, with his R he dodge your R and heal. so, you waste r and your life. and also gives him gold to fck you up again.”
CalicoCactus says “Stupidest champ ever, I personally ban Ekko or Nunu every game. Ekko's insane AP scaling ratios and huge burst leave him stomping most junglers, if you are smart, use grievous, and keep an eye on his R cooldown you can win the fight, you can also save things like your Q and E for when he is low and about to use his ult to stop him in his tracks and let your team take him down.”
Oddirear says “Not super threatening, but very frustrating for Rek'Sai. Having an AoE stun and the ability to undo her combo can frustrate attempts to gank or jungle against. Do not engage solo if he has ult available unless you're significantly more fed than he his and you're unlikely to encounter his teammates.”
Mirarkane says “Survivability, Mobility, Burst, Ekko's too strong for Elise. Killing him early can give you a good head start, but he'll catch up fast and outscale you. Good ban.”
Eagzey says “His kit makes him extremely hard to killl as AP Shaco. The fact he's really overpowered makes it almost impossible. He shouldn't be able to kill you, but he is literally untouchable.”
KevinThyAsian says “His E can be problematic if his ahead but you can overcome him if you are even. I suggest aggressively jg vs’ing him as it’ll be unlikely he’ll expect it”
SketchtheHunter says “Annoyance. High mobility, a huge as stun/shield with his W, and a get out of jail-free ulti that can also nuke you in extended fights. Bully this one early.”
SaltCat says “Op champ, early game you can win 1v1 if he doesnt land his w, he is stronger midgame , later in the game you can kill him if you charm him so he wont have the ability to ult”
KajiKumihoAkukei says “Ekko deals a decent amount of damage and he has a stun, but it is very telegraphed. If you can dodge his stun it is easy to invade him pre 6 and get him behind.”
Gumipapucs says “You can farm him in the early game as you are much stronger than him especially if you have a red buff, but watch out because he can deal a surprising amount of damage. Somewhat kiteable but he can get on top of you with his E and his Q slow. If he does not kill you during that time, he's pretty much doomed and he definetly can't kill you under that time in the early game if you are at 100% HP. He can only win early if he manages to stun you. Your best bet is to catch him off guard in the jungle as he gets kinda low and you will have a HP advantage. He scales super well into lategame even if he's very behind, also his ult reaches his current position after 4 seconds, the same time as your ultimate, so if he forces you to ult, he can either stun you at the end of your ult and/or deal a huge amount of damage with his own ult which is a guaranteed death for you, so you must jump a wall or flash out. If you engage him later in the game & you have some stacks for the extra attack range he will be forced to ult and/or die, just make sure he can't get to you because he will delete you, also watch out if he builds protobelt and prioritize keeping your distance over dealing damage. Red smiting him means he is unlikely (but still can) to burst you if he manages to get on top of you.”
ACE4291 says “Can beat you 1v1 like most champs pre lvl 6 but the difference is he can ult his health back after 6. Note if you fear him and your team dives him.... he will be dead before he can R. ”
Minase says “Both champions are looking to power-farm and scale, though you farm faster. If he gets ahead he can one-shot you just as much as you can to him. Look to charm him and kill him within the charm duration so that he can't R your damage away. Typically speaking whoever dies first in this matchup will lose.”
God_Maw Lan says “I personally find ekko quite easy to counter, in any fight ,1v1 or 5v5 as long as you evade his stun ;you literally counter him with your R or E.”
BoyWonder00 says “He has a massive AoE stun that gives him a shield and has great burst damage. He also is very hard to kill once he is level 6. If he doesn't land his stun, however, you can CC him and drain him.”
BoyWonder00 says “For both Rhaast and Shadow Assassin he can be a threat. He isn't tanky, so Rhaast doesn't live forever off of him. He also is just as slippery as SA, and his R makes him extremely hard to burst down.”
Zekrow says “Strong champ with insane burst, mobility and regen.
Any good Ekko players will destroy you. He dashes out of your W, can stun you, gain a shield, run away with ult. Its just a terrible match-up. Ban every time!”
Rhoku says “Ekko is never a threat unless he is 5+ kills ahead. And even then, Sterak's Gage should give you time to stack up on him and kill him. His difficulty comes in the form of him being VERY slippery and difficult to catch. Basically, if you are there, he cannot stand and fight so contest things against him.”
metalhydra273 says “Can be a nuisance with his slipperiness, but you can deal with him early game and win the 1v1 unless he pulls ahead or gets a good stun in. You can try to burst him down early by ulting him into your team and ensuring he dies before he gets to ult back.”
NixLychee says “Ekko's ability to negate a lot of your burst damage as Kayn is difficult to deal with, and he scales just as hard as you do, so you should try to bait him into using it, so he recovers only a little health and you can burst him down.”
SHACO BOLADO says “Você vence lutas antes de 6,Seus ganks são muito mais fortes e o counter gank é muito bom contra ele, depois do nivel 6 vc quase nunca ganha um 1v1 contra ele por causa da ult dele, mas se ele estiver sem ult vc pode tentar matar ele mas cuidade ele tem um otimo burst, em TF tente focar outros alvos se ele estiver com ult ele segue seu Q com o E dele ent cuidado com seu timing, vc pode desviar do dano da ult dele com sua ult, (Shaco AP e Muito melhor contra o ekko jogue ao redor das caixinhas forçando ele a ultar ou ate mesmo matar ele sem chegar perto)”
NixLychee says “Pre 6, you'll stomp him were you to 1v1 him, but at lvl 6 his ult helps him in a fight, while yours does not, so he'll ult to regain some health and either get away or possibly win the fight.”
AKScorched says “Ekko isn't really a big threat. If he starts chasing you, wait for him to use his e, then Q him. You can fight him, but you need to avoid his W and R. In mid-late game he wins those fights, so be careful with him.”
Aas112mm says “He is not a big threat for you on 1v1, he can almost never kill you unless if he's fed, but what will effect your game is that he outganks you, out farms you in early game so you will very likely to fall behind and you cannot kill him, unless your team baits his R or if he is just bad then maybe, but overall he is just annoying and facing him will be a huge pain in the ass for both you and your team.”
gurubashi35 says “His entire kit revolves around kiting you with his Q slow and W stun, so only fight him if you're confident you can tank/dodge both. ”
NixLychee says “He will ult when you ult, and negate most of your damage. You need to be significantly ahead to fight him, and don't stand near him for too long, as he can ult and almost oneshot you.”
ChaseMorePlz says “Ekko doesn't provide too much of a threat due to his build path, however can prove to be dominant in long fights and skirmishes. Try to prevent these if possible.”
KaRMaX says “With recent up, he is OP (lot of dmg,stun for 2,25 seconds and revive)
Really ANNOYING. Has a lot, lot and lot of mouvement speed with his kit and a lot of burst.
Try ta dodge his E (Alpha Strike if it's late to go back from the zone).
Later with mercs, Wit's End and Death Dance, he ain't a problem anymore.
Earlygame try to match him in ganking, play around your team”
ChaseMorePlz says “Ekko doesn't provide too much of a threat due to his build path, however can prove to be dominant in long fights and skirmishes. Try to prevent these if possible.”
Udyr uber says “Esse aqui escala entre o 3-5
Depende muito do seu desempenho no game, geralmente pego conquistador (iniciante) e invado ele direto, rusho Passos de Mercúrio+Sabre de Batalha Encantamento: Guerreiro
”
chasemyman1 says “Just get ahead early and this is a winning matchup. Its all about doing as much damage to his jungle pre level 6. After that the matchup becomes even if you are not ahead.”
NixLychee says “This champion needs a balance soon. His ability to oneshot people is almost unmatched, save for Veigar, Evelynn and Kha'Zix, and he has so much safety in his shield and Ult, so just try to avoid him, he will destroy anything.”
reganakers says “Ekko is very weak early, and wants to look to not die and scale up by farming his camps. You must try to disrupt him and get a strong enough early lead with objectives to close games before he gets too massive.”
ChaseMorePlz says “His blinks travel faster than your Q's. Ekko is sort of a different type of Amumu that is faster paced with more attention towards how he positions himself inside of his abilities..”
McSushi says “if you don't get ahead of him in levels, he will gank more, farm more, get objectives faster, and scale harder than you can, because of his broken ult and W and passive. so just counter jungle, and use exhaust properly.”
PsiGuard says “This is actually a pretty good matchup despite how strong Ekko can be. Since your charm lasts so long, Ekko can die before he's able to use his ult. Make sure you max W second to give your team a bigger window to burst him before he can ult.”
BrawlerDave says “Hard, but not too hard, can steal objectives, once your get your Aegies, and mercs, it would be alot easier to face this champ, otherwise, I would just evade battling with him”
Aimisenpaii says “Dodge q you win, don't and you hard lose. Try to play around counter ganking and not ganking, him using his W as a entry for his gank is crucial for you having a successful counter gank”
KillyOne says “Early on he is not very strong and in jungle he can get pretty low on health. This makes him relatively easy to invade, but he does scale realy well into mid and late game.”
League Of Cursed says “Haha scarecrow go burrrrr. Honestly, I've never had issues with ekko. Yes, his early game is better than yours. However, he builds so squishy most of the time that once you have items you can kill him before he gets to ult.
”
MetaSolaray says “Ekko's potential snowball and his two second timer can lead to a harsh time. With a slight nerf to his jungle clear you can outpace jungle clear to gain early XP. Try to catch him after he's thrown out his W, if you can stop him reaching his shield he's very squishy. Force early objectives and take fights he doesn't see coming to win.”
Dopamine_influx says “You win hard early, just adapt your clear towards fighting on scuttle/double scuttle, invade him when you know where he is, and counter gank every gank.”
Xeldom says “Even match-up.
He has horrible clear for most of early game, find ways to exploit this depending on where he starts and counter gank him or invade Ekko. Once he has 6 he becomes harder to shut down and will eventually be difficult for you to one-shot unless you're super ahead”
AWierdShoe says “You can invade early and force 1v1s to try and grab a lead on him, as Ekko is reliant on items and snowballing to be an effective assassin. If he gets his items, he has the potential to burst you down so be cautious. Ekko is super reliant on his ultimate when fighting, so it's good to fight him when it is down.”
DarkArbalist613 says “A Ekko's Burst can be pretty problematic, and his ult is frustrating, but he is pretty squishy. Overall just watch out if he is ahead and play off his cooldowns.”
Comrade Eshgrim says “He has tons of outplay potential, your reflexes will matter here a lot but this matchup is not in your favor in general. Play it safe.”
nextonetwo says “So Ekko is a semi-aggressive jungler, he can just walk in and steal your stuff, but you can put up a decent fight if you're good, still call for help cuz he's a free kill pre-6. After 6 he can be pretty annoying, just avoid his ult area and you could probably 1 v 1 him. he moves fast though with his passive, so be weary of that. ”

Zailent says “Rhaast is the best way to beat him. His stun will make your shadow assasin form useless since he will burst you down as soon as you try bursting him (uno reverse card in less words). As Rhaast youre gonna have the sustain to withstand his dmg, and you can heal with your R a bunch.”
DarkPit59 says “Malgré un early compliqué en jungle, Ekko peut aisément vous tenir tête dès qu'il obtient son niveau 6 et ses premiers objets. Prenez garde à son ultime et trackez son délai de récupération, celui-ci étant court, vous n'aurez pas beaucoup d'opportunités.”
Vodka4Gaben says “You will always beat him 1v1, but he snowballs super hard and I would recommend you always ban him. You might be able to win against him, but your team won't. So this is my perma banned champion.”
SapphireLoL says “Ekko can slow with his Q and W, which while isn't as much of a threat as Kindred/ Graves, can still prevent you getting to him as quickly as needed.”
TheRabidRabbitX says “Ekko is a pain because he has the ability to directly counter your burst. Akali's strongest strength lies in her burst potential but Ekko can reverse all of that. You have to be really careful and either poke him down or burst him when his abilities are burned.”
D3str00 says “Small threat, however you can't underestimate him. His E dash can easily make you miss Q and lose trade with him. And most probably his ult with make you angry, when he will survive on 50hp and use it for safety.”
WickedPoppet says “Haha scarecrow go burrrrr. Honestly, I've never had issues with ekko. Yes, his early game is better than yours. However, he builds so squishy most of the time that once you have items you can kill him before he gets to ult.”
agarandom says “- Ekko cannot use his R if you root him. Therefore, use your empowered E (root) to root him and burst him afterwards.
- Try to hit your E on him. Ekko is really good at running away, so hitting your E is very important.
- Go Edge of Night so that you don't get stunned from his W, since an Ekko would usually stand inside his W (because he thinks he is safer there).
- Make sure to play around your bushes. If he uses E, you are able to jump on him, making him unable to kite you (with his passive/E).
Usually against Ekko, you want to invade his Red. I will talk about this later.”
Sorrowful Prince says “The king of the fiesta. His clear isn't that much better than yours but he is even stronger in skirmishes which makes him really hard to face. He can easily dodge your hookshot so don't even try hitting him as long as he has e up. You can lock him inside your ultimate later so he can't r away if you catch him.”
TrevorJayce says “Ekko is pretty easy to play into. His kit is hard countered by you as if he stuns you and procs his passive on you, you can double W the damage away and he essentially just healed you. Don't give him a lead and it's an easy W.”
Fabosch is Love says “Actually OP in jungle. You have better early game but Ekko is hard to catch because of his mobility in fight. His late game is stronger than you.”
Honey_drops says “Not that bad but can be very annoying. You can kill him in 1 combo unless he builds a lot of MR. Be careful of his ult since the cooldown is much lower than yours. ”
Morzanoth says “Ekko is a tough match up regardless of how he builds. A tank Ekko will out scale you since he can deal a good amount of damage and still be really tanky. An AP Ekko can actually burst you very well so it is equally strong. Ekko can avoid all damage from your Ult and he will heal back some Health so you may be left in a tight spot. Ideally you want to use your E as soon as he jumps to you to avoid the follow up damage from timewinder and then slow him with the second part of your E. This is a very tough skill match up and depends on how much you can get done before Ekko starts getting stronger.”
jsmolik says “its easy match-up if you know how to play it . dont fight him solo . when you are with team ult him on half HP after he cant use his R so he cant save himself . ”
Ryttar says “Your CCs will be very important against him but be careful, if he's fed he'll burst you like crazy. Always care about his ult and never underestimate him.”
lheisse says “While his cc is very predicable, he has substantial burst damage. You will need to make sure he does not get on top of you. he is melee so as long as you keep him away he cannot burst you. Keep an eye on his ulti echo so if he ults you can land a quick skillshot. ”
KajiKumihoAkukei says “Ekko deals a decent amount of damage and he has a stun, but it is very telegraphed. If you can dodge his stun it is easy to invade him pre 6 and get him behind.”
briguy1109 says “Ekko is an interesting matchup, and the interactions with his abilities are somewhat inconsistent. You can Q the stun easily, and alpha when low to follow him in his R, but the rest of your team probably will not be able to handle him without. you there.”
VekkyBoi says “Ekko is decently strong right now in the meta. Bursting down an Ekko is hard later as he just presses his R button. Can outduel you early game, only if you fight him. You can disengage from Ekko well.”
Soulreaperjin says “His W can be troublesome if you're ambushed by that, but otherwise just keep dodging his Q, so he can't E on you.
Also keep him in one place so he can't use his R to yeet away.”
BlindKidNoThumbs says “Easy matchup especially before Ekko is 6. Make sure to invade him and pressure him and gank early.You also have great lockdown fairly easy matchup.”
MannerlessNG says “A fairly average challenge unless handled by a professional. Most of the time you make him obsolete by 15 mins as you outscale him badly. He is most threatening at the early stages so guard your lanes.”
Fabosch is Love says “You have a better early game. The problem is : he has more mobility and his ult to escape. Really hard to denie. He also has a better scaling. Just get a Maw against him.”
The Top Bear says “JUNGLE: Ekko jungle is one of those niche picks that people think isn't that viable until they get smacked by it. He is very strong early and will likely win in any 1v1. The best thing to do however is to try to control scuttles, as your clear should be slightly better. then track and countergank him.
MID and TOP: This man is a difficult lane opponent, and can smack you around pretty much all game. The best plan is to poke him down as best you can, and try to bait him into fights under your tower. Once he uses his ulti, you can reset with your E heal, and then 1v1 him.”
PrideHunter says “You win early fights as long as you dodge his stun which is quite easy with rappel. At level 6 you will be fine as long as you are even.”
urrb says “This champ deals some pretty heavy damage while also being able to hard cc you and your team in an aoe. You can go for an early cheese at one of his buffs if you can catch him with his abilities on cooldown, but otherwise respect him when you come across him. He's very strong with teammates that can follow up on his w stun. If you dodge his q and don't get stunned by his W you can win, but many times he will get away anyways. Try to focus on ganking to get a lead and taking his camps when you can.”
Goku SSJ sensed your ener says “Ignore unless he's alone, attack other targets but if he is a damage threat then force his r and go for another person.”
OGPOTATOJEFFSHACO says “Weak early game. Should not lose unless you are retarded. Invade, counter jungle, gank the possibilities are endless. Your R can counter many of his abilities. 1v1 shouldn't be too much of a problem.”
Grap3fest says “Ekko is tough- he can reset the whole duel with you and is running dark harvest as a main keystone. We like being a low health so we dont like this :)”
HalcyonFox says “Due to Ekko's 3 hit passive, massive shield from W, his E to close a gap and his R to jump away and regain health, Ekko can be tricky. Highly mobile, highly damaging.
Post level 6, you may not have many issues dealing with him provided you can land your fully charged W for the charm and MR shred, mostly one shotting him with your Q and E.
Pre 6 however, it's best to try and avoid early fights until you have your Sheen or a laner around to aid you, should you need it. Don't take extended trades with this one for a Skuttle Crab, he usually wins.”
matg8 says “Ekko is a pain early, but as long as he isn't fed you should be fine. If he is, then he's more like a 5 on this list bc he can still shred you anyway. BUILD AGAINST HIM (AP resist).”
eastya says “Pretty weak until he hits 6. You pop him early with your true damage. In team fights if he tries to assassinate your carries simply deny him and knock him up.”
jaybae says “One of the strongest junglers atm. A load of dmg as well as a shield/stun and a dash. Avoid dueling Ekko early levels but feel free to fight him post-6 if you can avoid his skillshots.”
Mkcls says “A bit ekko favored. He's (Just like you) really squishy, so its possible to win 1vs1. Keep in mind his ult cooldown and avoid getting stunned by all cost! You should consider buying GA if he's fed.”
HackedAccountlol says “2 Second stun on his W. Passive is bonkers for securing objectives ( 2 passive stack+ auto+ smite). You can't really kill him until you get form.”
today ill feed enemy team says “He is one of the champions can 1v1 you fairly in level 6, before it, just try do don't get cheesed by his abilities and you can kill him easy peasy lemon squeezy.”
radecki says “At this moment hes one of the best junglers, so thats not that easy. You have to be careful with his W, that can stun you. His ult counters yours, but when you hit your W on him there shouldnt be problem to kill him.”
GROFITEER says “AP breaks this build, even with all of your damage. avoid AP. not only that, but with cc, slows, and an ulti that can save him from your onslaught he is a force to be reckoned.”
Yuki H. says “Whoever gets the jump on first will most likely win the duel, decided mostly by whether or not Ekko lands his W to stun you. Since he is AP, your dueling potential is not helped much with your E. However, his early clear is not the best, which means you are capable of invading if your lanes have priority, securing an advantage by counterjungling or killing him in his jungle.”
TheFalco62 says “Skill matchup. He will be trying to Q spam your minion wave lvl 1 in order to shove it in, and get safe CS. This makes it hard to harass him with Q, so you can try push the wave as fast as you can. If you are experienced in this matchup, you will have a feeling of when ekko will use his Q(Or when he decides to animation cancel it) on you. If you manage to dodge it, you can fight him(GO HAM)! Just be aware when he goes out of vision, as most Ekko players will be looking to land a W(stun) on you.”
pixelhidef says “Ekko isn't picked as jungler often, but he can dominate you at nearly every stage of the game. I wouldn't ban him for it though, just play with your team and you should win overall. Don't duel.”
LePlay says “"Hey, his E is a dash and can be blocked, so he should be easy to play against, right?" Wrong! His Q slow can keep you entirely from reaching him, his W stuns you completely and his R deals ridiculous amounts of damage. The only way to effectively combat him is to avoid his passive´s stacks and to stun him for as long as possible, since he his unable to use his R in that time”
Optimal Pancake says “Can zone with his Q and W, escape with his E and R. Passive gives him burst, which can potentially screw up when you decide to ult. Play this carefully.”
Violzandre says “Again, like almost every champ, you only need to get the advantage farming.
If you don't avoid his stun or his R, you can be in problems.
But it's not THAT difficult!! just do it, simple.”
TricolorStar says “If you're caught by Ekko, the fight is not in your favor. You can peel yourself by using Allure, but extended fights with him will always end in your death unless you can surprise him with an Allure > Empowered Whiplash combo.”

Tips Against Ekko in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Vicksay says “Waveclear? Check. Mobility? Check. One shot potential? Check. Ability to avoid your combo? Check. Ekko in the hands of a good player is an almost impossible match-up, if he mains Ekko he will know how easily he can make your life a living hell with constant tower diving and unmatched roaming. Very important match-up to not feed early game as once he gets a small lead on you it's easy pickings for him.”
1 Am Zed says “Never had issues with ekko, either they hard shove the lane and wait for minions or i beat them lane goes even/won (Aslong as there's not big misplays). ”
Polarshift says “He will shield himself, poke you for half your health and escape almost unscathed. He also has decent waveclear and rushes protobelt. Still, be sure to trade back.”
Yasukeh says “ You can always win trade with him provided he doesn't hit stun and you don't let him get his passive off for free and run away from it. For Ekko to farm from range he pratically has to push the entire wave, and he can't control his pushing very well. you can use this to freeze on him and force a situation where you can run him down the lane. This matchup is much more free if you learn to freeze so you can deny him. ”
Drewmatth Taliyah says “MELEE = PUSH EARLY (LEVELS 1-2) - CARE FOR GANKS! (SPAM Q'S TILL 50-60% MANA) - if he's good he will Q the waves early on - match his push with yours because yours is stronger.
Ring + 2 Pots if you struggle or Corrupting if you are okay with it. Some Ekkos play with TP and Corrupting will help you with that. You can kill him early and you can make him dash through your E.
Versus Ekko the main thing you have to do besides dodging Q and R is to stay away from his stuns and you are good to go. You can also roam first. This matchup is only relatively difficult if he gets kills on you/somewhere else - because after that he becomes a really hard to kill / hard to shutdown champ compared to others.
Fight him but be careful of his stuns and gank setups for their junglers. I usually go Ignite against Ekko.”
Yeager says “He's slippery so he can be hard to hit with a full combo. He also specializes in diving with his W stun field. Laning phase is quite easy as long as you watch out for his W (parallel convergence) when he's out of vision. Whenever he engages on someone, he wants to proc his passive by getting 3 hits with a combination of autos and abilities. His best way of doing that is using E (engage) and Q(Skillshot) in order to execute his combo super fast, and back off with bonus movement speed once his passive is procced. If you learn to time it right, sidestepping the moment he uses E, will make him miss his Q skillshot, making him unable to proc his passive in time, and get any damage off on you. That's when you can trade back and punish him severely. ”
Fuzzmonkey says “Same as Fizz, can dash through your E to get to you. Uses his ult to negate your ult, very hard match up, would also recommend asking your jungler for a gank as early as possible. ”
Wholesomefrog says “One of the weirder matchups, if he comes up close with his dash you should E away bacause otherwise he is going to kill you everytime he gets too close. Poke him early.”
LunarVortex says “His rather high cooldowns at the start of the game make him an easy lane opponent for you. Spellshield his stun and save your Q for when he uses E on you during the early levels. Try to match his push by putting your W down often because Morgana sucks at lasthitting under tower. In teamfights, shield whoever he is trying to burst and then Q him before he can ult out so your team can burst him down.”
DarDarThePenguin says “Ekko has strong and almost unavoidable all-ins. Shielding yourself as soon as he engages and then trying to retaliate hard will win you the lane. Be sure to try to force him to E onto you in your minion wave as well, since minions provide an invaluable damage boost.”
RezoneVerified says “Punish early game with constant auto attack and double beam from easy grenades. With him being melee you should win the lane pre 6 easily. Build aggressive.”
Doctor Yas says “Skill match up. Can swing either way. Take short trades and do not let Ekko get his passive off. Buying early MR can help in this match up. ”
Yeager says “Be aware when he's out of vision as he will most likely look to land a stun on you.
When he engages, sidestep immediately so you can dodge his Q. If you dodge that, you can win every trade. ”
Yamikaze says “Skill matchup. He will be trying to Q spam your minion wave lvl 1 in order to shove it in, and get safe CS. This makes it hard to harass him with Q, so you can try push the wave as fast as you can. If you are experienced in this matchup, you will have a feeling of when ekko will use his Q(Or when he decides to animation cancel it) on you. If you manage to dodge it, you can fight him(GO HAM)! Just be aware when he goes out of vision, as most Ekko players will be looking to land a W(stun) on you. ”
lkycch says “Ekko is the only assassin that is strong early, mid and lategame. Most assassins have to risk themselves in order to waveclear, but Ekko's Q allows him to do that without fear. His ultimate is on a low CD and allows him to escape, whilst dealing damage as well! As Zilean, you need to ult the person he focuses, then Q+W+Q his rewind location to stun him, which is extremely difficult. Not impossible, but all I can say is... try your best! If your team is all squishy, I suggest dodging in champ select.”
Fuzzmonkey says “Ekko is pretty easy for Leblanc. Just make sure you don't get caught in his W stun and you should come out better in all your trades. Locking him down with chains at level 6 will also stop him from being able to use his ult too. ”
iZianni says “This champion never dies, takes 0 damage due to sustain and then proceeds to one shot you. If you're in range to Q/W, you're in range to die.
Haha
Avoid stuns from fog of war and hope you're not forced to side lane into him.”
Hullos says “High mobility, dive potential after 6, high damage. Best hope is to poke him low enough to prevent the all in. Warn team for roams and play safe for farm. Will probably need barrier or exhaust. ”
XayLies says “Block Q and dodge W's zone. He got high damage and 99% of times he will only fight with his R ready. Try to engage on him instead of countering his own while his R is on cooldown.”
iZianni says “I hate this champion with a passion, your damage will never stick because of corrupting potion and his ultimate makes yours irrelevant.
Just don't even bother trying to poke him out early because you'll run out of mana leaving you useless for early game jungle plays.
Play around manaflow band, avoid the temporal field and look to have more impact in team fights or early game rotations. ”
wDesired says “Comet or Electrocute is good into this matchup
Bait the ekko by getting hit with Q then use WQ AA to trade with electrocute
(All runes are good)”
lkycch says “Ekko is the only assassin that is strong early, mid and lategame. Most assassins have to risk themselves in order to waveclear, but Ekko's Q allows him to do that without fear. His ultimate is on a low CD and allows him to escape, whilst dealing damage as well! As Zilean, you need to ult the person he focuses, then Q+W+Q his rewind location to stun him, which is extremely difficult. Not impossible, but all I can say is... try your best! If your team is all squishy, I suggest dodging in champ select.”
Avucado says “Very hard to die to him in lane if you play it right. Start E and look to get an early trade with it. Q->E or looking to engage with E will not work because he can E out. If the Ekko does not seem too good, then you can go for a reaction test when you are both 6 and just try to R him while his is still up, but it's not recommended and should only be done if he is about to escape while you can execute. If he reacts once don't do it for the rest of the game (unless making him R will get him killed anyway). ”
mrsuits says “Push and Poke with W early levels. Try to get a kill Pre 6. After 6 it becomes a boring lane you can tkill and he will prob roam a lot so try to ping your teamates. In teamfights stay away from him as he can 1 shot you.”
MikeVix says “Ekko is an easy kill before 6. You casn poke him pretty easily bait him with W so he uses E to dodge your combo. Then use EQ to finish the combo. After 6 do the same thing and after 400 HP all in him. Make sure you watch his R trail.”
Gtoxer says “Runa recomendavel:eletreocutar. Feitiço de invocador:exaust ou tp. 1) Sempre que ele usa o W pode agressiva nele. 2)cronometre o w dele 3) se ele tive ult, você não pode fica debaixo da torre com pouca vida”
Luciiid says “Very easy to out trade at levels 1, 2, & 3. Dodge first part of his q and its a free trade because he just cant out damage you. Try to bait his e then follow with q aa w aa. Free trade, free lane. Watch out for 6. A lot of ekkos don't upgrade r right away to bait you. Try to bait his r by faking an all in without using your own r. Then one shot him with w q r aa. Must take electrocute.”
PASS10NE says “Ekko is really strong this preseason. When trading with Ekko, try to back off before he procs his passive. Do not all in him if he has his R (Ekko will sometimes save his upgrade for his R in order for you to think that his R is not up). Try to force him to use his R first, then all in him.”
Kirito OTP Xerath says “Con Ekko nos debemos mantener atentos en todo momento, ya sea por su W, o E, con el queremos solo tradeos cortos, de 1 a 3 habilidades, en lo posible hay que llamar a nuestro Jungla.”
rajsovsky says “Not the hardest matchup, but also not the easiest one. Try to read his mind and don't get stunned by his W. His ult is gonna be annoying and for sure he has better wave clear, so he can just push and get some free kills from roams. Personally I don't like this matchup, but you can win it actually if hes stupid.”
MisterIncredabel says “He can close gaps. making him an aggressive champion to fight against but eventually in the late game u can combo them dead. My advice if he's very aggressive keep your distance, farm ur passive with q and avoid his q. If you hear his time clock zone move away from where u think it will be if he closes the gap u will be able to punish him for not stunning you because he used his gap closer to attack you.”
ShadowSlayerMain says “Heavy Damage in both Early and Late Game so Malmortius is optional, just last hit minions, force him to cast his R 1st so he can't dodge your Q's after you R him”
Ambitieux says “Ekko is easily poked out with autos and Q in lane. Try to keep him pushed and save charm for his engage. You can use W if you think you can get multiple autos off for free damage, But save charm for if he tries to engage. Than charm and walk away. Although obvious if he walks out of Fog Of War. He might try to use his W and all in you.”
Dr Eggmund says “Ekko is very annoying, however he is a melee champion so poke him as much as possible with your Q's and Auto Attacks. His E (dash) is concerning and allows him to pull off a Passive combo allowing him to deal damage and escape. His Ultimate at level 6 is huge for him, believe me you won't be able to kill him when it's up. Try poking him and bating out his ultimate so you can take advantage of him while it's down.”
Sanctuar says “Ekko can deal great amounts of damage, but for that he needs to do his combo all over again: Dash onto the enemy with E, Q immediately and auto-attack for the third stack to proc his passive. Abuse this fact to punish him whenever he goes in for a trade. Dodge his W and ultimate and you'll be safe. Due to his ultimate the killing potential gets reduced a lot, but that should not stop you from pushing up the lane and putting pressure on him whenever his ult is on cooldown.”
Sylvan Lore says “Ekko is a strong threat to Orianna that can make very aggresive plays on you with little room for punishment. He has a strong push in early levels with his Q so make sure you push the wave hard as well to not be under turret. Care his lvl 2 as he cant get an easy 3 hit proc with an E->Q combo and then run away with his passive before you can trade back. If he plays poorly you win trades before level 6, but after that its really hard to win an even trade again. It is also even harder since he will buy merc treads every game making your damage less. You can kill him in lane if his ult is somehow down but mostly you just want to farm. With team coordination you can burst him out and out-teamfight him but it is not easy. Morellonomicon is actually really strong against him since it will decrease the amount of health he comes back with after ulting. Other than that standard builds, TP or Barrier, and try to play around your team when you can. ”
Aegox says “Just poke him down a ton, while he does have good CC, his power spike is usually at level 6, so just stop him from getting CS and dodge his R with your R.”
Jnewbringspain says “Lots of movement speed along with a gap-closer. He has very strong damage too. I hate this matchup, he is often a ban for me. You may have to use Rupture to clear minion waves. Play this one safe.”
Impossible2Gank says “Pretty even matchup just avoid his passive proc or he'll run circles around you. You're able to lure him back onto boxes with your Q when he E's you but it's a short window and can be hard to pull off.”
Tortoise_Maniac says “- Match Ekko's waveclear with yours
- If he doesn't Q the wave you can start W (but he will if he's good)
- You outrade him early
- Try to land E's on him, if you miss it isn't the end of the world
- Poke and shove wave with your Q and passive
- Either poke him down to all-in range and go for a kill or shove him in and roam with your jungler ”
SpartanDumpster says “I'd say Yone has the advantage earlier in this match up, but Ekko can be seemingly weak at one moment then destroys you the next. You can get a couple kills on him and easily think you can keep beating him, but then he does "Ekko things" and all of a sudden it feels like there's no way for you to beat him.
Be cautious of walking up when he could have his bubble ability ready, you get your real body caught in that and you're easily open not only to him attacking you but to a jungle gank as well.”
Chili Dog says “It's ESSENTIAL you don't let him Q the wave lvl 1, just walk up like the angriest player on the planet and proc electro and walk away, repeat. Electrocute recommended.”
ThePandaEvan says “Be careful when Ekko dashes in with his E. Play around Ekko's E +Q+AA combo, but other than that, be aggressive pre-6 since that's when he's weakest. His ult can deny your all in and can turn it around so be cautious after 6. His time-delayed Ekko is a sign where the ult will be so pay attention to that. ”
BCota says “You can bully tf outta him pre 6 try to dodge Qs so he doesnt get his 3-hit passive. After 6 you can deal with him 2 ways: 1. Fight him wait till he ults then you ult him and all in, 2. All in him and make sure to ignite before he ults to screw his healing then run him down, your ult follow him after he ults
”
Noodles912 says “Skill based lane. He denies you pre 6. After level 6, use Q to trade and preserve your HP. After 11, you should win easy. Be careful for his ult.”
wildersovereign says “Ekko is very manageable so long as he doesn't snowball. Ping missing when he leaves lane to prevent this. His W is very strong, so be sure to shield it. Note that it still provides him with a shield, so you can't just ignore it like you can a lot of singular CC abilities. His ult makes him difficult to kill since it'll allow him to escape your ult a lot of the time. He doesn't have much kill pressure on you either, though, so your main focus against him should be lane priority rather than getting kills. Overall this lane is pretty non-interactive, but your waveclear is WAY better than his, so your roams will be more effective on average.”
poro99 says “I have the hardest time whenever I play against Ekko. This champion is not balanced and it is overtuned. There is no counter play to this champ. You should always ban this champ whenever you play Talon.”
Noodles912 says “Ekko is pretty easy. Dodge his Q with E, jump onto him, and run if he uses W. At level 6, save your shark for roams, as Ekko has such an annoying ult that makes him invulnerable.”
Yumi Project says “Pressure him pre 6. Then try to move around the mid to deal him some dmg. Everytime you wanna all-in him, just try to stay away from her ghost, bcs he want to ult you in the last moment.”
Johan Paracelso says “By laning phase, Ekko can destroy the wave with his Q, then, he'll look for a trade. When Ekko jumps to a side or to the forth, he has a stronger Auto, this Auto do more magic damage and teleports him in front of Yone. Avoid getting hit by the Q at all, since it will give Ekko a mark on his passive, and, if you see him jumping, you probably want to get away from him before he jumps over you, procs passive and run away. You can't beat Ekko on your own, so, wait until the Jungler comes or get Level 6 before he does. Then go in. For Ekko Jungle, he can zone half of the lane with his E, so, when playing aginst one, don't be too agressive against enemy laner, unless it can give you a great advantage”
Dafioske says “Es relativamente fácil dañarlo y que use su utli antes que te pueda matar pero no te confíes es muy dañados y si se mantiene en buen farm hasta te puede matar o botar de linea”
Niqkl says “Ekko isnt much of a threat to you but your team. The same rule of the all- in like with Anivia applies to him as well. Dont all in when he has it! Without it, he is rather squishy.”
SkellyBirb says “Ekko is extremely mobile and can survive a lot of your burst with his shield and ultimate. You have to abuse him early game and be safe once he hits level 6 else he can win.”
Aikairi says “Make sure to dodge his second Q as it comes back. If you dodge it, you win the trade. Also make sure you don't stand inside his W as the stun duration is quite long, and also don't stand in his ult as well. Be careful of the extra burst of movement speed he gets after getting 3 stacks of his passive as it might make you miss daggers.”
Snow Day Zoe says “This is one of the champs that are hard to go against if the ekko player is good, but if they are not, just kill them after hitting your e, also he builds first item protobelt, and its another reason for you to one shot, when he uses it.”
PROJECT BZ says “Ekko's whole purpose midlane is to permanently shove lane since lvl 1 which is what Zed lacks as a laner. You will never get prio in lane and he is extremely hard to kill as he can itemise damage/armor and has an ult to completely negate Zeds ultimate.”
vCraze says “Ekko is a very hard matchup, he has pressure on you from very early on. If he goes into fog of war from level 3 on make sure you dont push up as he could be setting up a W from out of vision. You need to stay out of range of Ekko's E otherwise you will not be able to cc him if he gets on top of you. Try to poke him out and scale.”
OxiteoMyst says “Don't let him E you, try to dodge as much Q's as he throws out and oh boy if you get hit by his W...
He out roams you, out damages you, and can remove all the burst you've done to him using his R. DO NOT STEP IN HIS R HOLOGRAM. IF he doesnt play aggro, thank him for being bad.”
SkellyBirb says “Ekko can deal a lot of damage in a short time, but as long as you avoid standing in his shield and slow/stun, you can go even in trading.”
Katfire says “You need to be careful with Ekko. You want to try to poke him down with Q and go for short trades. I recommend Electrocute with Boneplating against Ekko. In trades ull want to Q E W to proc electrocute and E away before he gets to proc his passive and his own electrocute. He might E away from your W damage, but that's ok, you are mainly using it here to reset your E fully to get back to safety before he can trade back.
After 6 he becomes more difficult to kill. If you saw him use R at some point and it seems like he still doesn't have it back, but he is playing really aggressive all of the sudden it might be coming back up within a couple of seconds and is trying to take you by surprise. Take care.
If Ekko gets fed he is extremely dangerous since his damage is easy to apply.”
PedrinhoXD says “Ekko and TF have pretty much the same wave clear, but he can trade very well, stay away from the minions to avoid being hit with Q when he is pushing”
peytonqt says “BAN HIM
RUNES: Electrocute/Aery/PR
You NEED to abuse the fact that you win trades vls 2-5. Wait for him to wave clear with his Q, and then you can jump onto him for a quick trade (Hammer Form Q AA W E R Q E (W If needed to)). AFTER LEVEL 6 HE WILL DIVE YOU AND KILL YOU.
He's worth the ban as if you don't kill him at all during early levels, you just get outscaled if you're not 3/0 or something, and even then, he's a huge threat to the entire team. His ult isn't fun to mess with, and its cooldown seems like its up every 2 seconds. BAN HIM RITO NERF HIM ”
WolfRider01 says “Very skill based matchup. He can all in you and stick to you, so keep that in mind. He can poke with Q as well. Try and dodge his Q, then engage him. Be mindful of his W stun.”
duhnx says “You have to play the matchup a lot more different than others. You should try to trade but never all in after level 6. If you can hit an E into melee Q, R, his ult means nothing. Just be careful of his roams because of his significantly better wavclear.”
Sadkid says “Ekko is a tough lane. He will do 1 of 2 things early shove with Q or Q you. If he Qs the wave punish him he is incredibly dependent on his skills. Take E second and make sure to ignite him before he ultis to cut healing. Otherwise beware of his one-shot potential. ”
S4V4 says “What Ekko player is supposed to do? Do a combo on Yasuo, proc his passive and electrocute, and run back until he gets his spells back. How to prevent this? Try not to get hit by his Q in the middle of the lane. If he uses his E to jump on you, make sure to windwall his Q so he has to autoattack you twice after hitting you with his E to proc his passive and electrocute.”
Hqzz says “Ekko can deal a lot of damage to you, it's not always easy to hit your root and his Q makes it hard to get close. He will often try to roam so keep your lane pushed as much as possible. ”
Ryank30 says “Fleet. Ekko will always out damage you in every trade, but if he messes up, his spells will be on a set cooldown, which is very long early on. Play to scale, and go in when he misses his Q and R is on cooldown. Most Ekko's like to W the middle of the wave to zone you off, because you either get stunned in the zone or you have to give up farm and can't poke him because he gets a shield. ”
Ezak says “There's not too many large threats since this build is good for sustaining in fights cause of Goredrinker, but Ekko, Veigar, Neeko, and maybe Sylas are annoying”
Cap Jack says “I think ekko is sleepy busted at the moment, and can be strong against anyone. He wins trades unless your super quick and sneaky. Hes hard to punish for mistakes cause boom r. I suggest playing rumble w electrocute hitting 3 and walking him down with empowered flame thrower imo best way to deal w ekko.”
Best Azir Africa says “His engage makes soldier positioning a challenge and getting a kill on him is tough with his ult as using shurima shuffle isn't much of an option. Play passive and don't full engage unless his ult is down and you know you can confirm the kill.
”
MagicalFartz1 says “Aery with ignite. You win early lane, stand outside the wave so he cant poke you with his q. Only E when he E's you or he is not in range to E you. After 6 if your around 50% hp he can dive you. You can waste his ult with one bubble. After he gets 2 items he can 100-0 you if you miss your bubble.”
MartyBG says “An easy matchup for Lux. As long as you hit him with your q he's unable to do anything. While he's rooted he also can't use his root, so its a perfect time to full combo him.”
Zatharah says “MIDs que conseguem chegar e burstar Seraphine muito fácil são seus maiores counters, visto que ela não tem mobilidade e apenas seu W pra segurar o burst.”
MINISE says “For one Ekko is counterable with Lucian burst and the Collector build, it can shut down the chunkyness of Ekko. Respect his electrocute or phase rush procs and some of his combos post level-5.”
eiensiei says “When he goes out of vision, he's probably trying to hide his W cast animation and sound to surprise you with a stun, so I'll walk further away until he shows up again. Unless his stun hits, his Q is easily dodgeable so I try to take as many early trades as I can or just straight up take advantage of my range and poke with with AA's. Lux's Q doesn't let him R.”
Tauricus2017 says “Ekko is quite interesting matchup. He is very dangerous at any stage of the game. Push waves and make him waste mana on his Qs. When you know that he doesn't have enough mana to kill you, engage immediately. Pay attention when his ultimate is up as he can freely engage under your turret, kill you and then still survive.”
Papzz says “He has very good burst damage. Many people underestimate him on early and regret it on late. Care always for the position of R. No need to have cleanse, his w is easy to dodge and you have mobility as well. Care for his combo though.”
economistastonks says “Even match up, this is a skill based match up. His ult cancels your ult, but you can try to only use it if he is stunned by your E.
In the lane, dodge his Q and go in for a quick stun, followed by your autos and Q. ”
DrWindwall says “Just dodge his Q and trade him until the 2nd stack of his passsive on you and fall back again then repeat. Careful tho good Ekkos tend to W out of vision.”
Bobbab says “Ekko can be difficult to deal with. But once he has cooldowns he is a sitting duck. Try to bait out or wait out his q or e and all in. When hitting 6 try to roam or fight till he uses ult and then fight him on cooldowns again. his burst does more then yours so extended trades are often better.”
sweodigaming says “Pretty easy lane, just harass him when he is coming for his minions. He does not have high kill threat, so just relax. When stunned he can not ult so try to burst him quickly.”
JoshAy says “Don't engage in long fights. His damage comes from his passive (hitting things 3 times will deal more damage). Don't stand in his circle it will stun you. His E1 is a dash and E2 is a blink. Good ult to steal. ”
Midlane God says “Skill matchup
Don't get hit by his W and then trade with him but he deals tons of damage with his passive
His R is also very annoying.”
Magical Rock says “Ekko can be a bit of a problem with his ult. Whenever you go in on him, make sure he is poked down enough so when he comes down after ulting him he is dead.”
Aukaren says “Play really safe in this matchup as its pretty similar to Akali. Rush Mercury treads and avoid getting caught in his W, if he ever suddenly goes in a bush or lets you push the wave he will 90% be preparing to use his W on you along with his jungler, having flash is no big deal as his e can easily catch up to you, He will constantly Roam , so remember to ping as soon he is missing.”
1Recycle Bin1 says “another skill matchup, the better the ekko the harder it gets for you to kill him, dont get hit by his q too much and try to dodge his W when possible(also dont forget to look at his R)”
TheFwnK says “This champion is very annoying, he will poke you everytime with his drone (or what that thing is). Try to make him use his ult and then you can use yours.”
MetaKnight13373 says “You really cannot solo-kill ekko once he gets his ult, He also has a blink which makes hitting your charm very difficult. However you teamfight much better than Ekko, so as long as you don't put yourself very behind early you should be able to outperform him after 20 minutes. ”
Grayified says “Ekko is very annoying. He can poke well, he has very good waveclear, he has CC and an amazing escape. If you play correctly you can win the lane, but you should be hoping for an even lane.”
Coldsong says “Ekko is a pretty easy matchup due to his meh laning phase. If he E's away from your second W, flash in his direction so your second W still hits for a free passive.”
Daeydark says “At level 1, look to push the wave. As you walk up to use W, try moving to the side of the wave first to dodge his Q. Prioritize hitting both passive stacks on him with your W while also hitting the minion wave.”
Nazrat says “Similliar to Diana he can run you down , but early on he is still strong enough to outdamage you so pretty much on this matchup all you have to do is control the waves and do not let him freeze you. You have the better wave clear early so use it as your advantage.”
ZeMoller says “ekko has apparently not had the easiest transition from season 10 to 11, and is very weak at the moment - the only way ekko can trade with you is by proccing his passive with double q and e, or having gotten super fed of roaming and now runs you down.”
Coldsong says “Same thing with Zilean, Ekko cannot use his R while stunned. When you see him cast his W, get away from him as we will stun your if you are inside of it.”
elnino9 says “Don't allow Ekko to proc his 3rd attack on passive, walk away to avoid this or shunpo out. It's his major tool to out-trade you. Take advantage when his Q is on cooldown. Setup Q dagger on him when he tries to go for CS. After hitting 6, try to force him to use ult by playing aggressive, it's okay to burn your own ulti for his. He'll be far more open for ganks and left far more vulnerable than you without ult.”
Lunasta says “There's not any trick to beat him, it's just a skill matchup, if you're having any difficulties with him, try to push your wave against him and gank, don't stay safe gainst him because he can outscale you”
TheCatOfCheshire says “He's a hard one. Keep in mind : if you don't have vision on him, he's throwing a W on you. The Q is easy to dodge if he's not engaging, so dodge it. And if he's engaging with e+q you use this combo : charm, R+E BEHIND him to avoid the back of his q, Q ignite (to avoid the heal on of his utlimate) AA then when he uses his ult to run, dash again on him and finish him. Use it if you know that you can kill him. ”
Twitch.Tv-LimitBreaker88 says “Very rare to face a good Ekko, but he can be extremely annoying, with his push and all ins. Stay at max range and when he goes in dodge his Q. Then you can destroy him. Keep track of his E CD.”
Haywyre says “Super annoying lane but early fights should be in your favor. If you can build a snowfall it'll be really hard for him to get back into the game.”
FalleN3 says “Dodge his (Q) and you will make this lane easier for yourself. Try to poke him down a bit before you attempt an all-in. Be aware of his ultimate as he can use this to escape or simply out-trade you. You can (E) out of his (E) if you need to, or you can use your (Q) on a minion/champion either.”
AP WormMaW Mid says “In here, it's not too hard to lane against him, though it is just crucial to avoid him being able to jump on you, so keep on distance. Another thing you should be careful about is his AoE stun - you need to expect that sometimes when new minion wave arrives, he might try to stand behind wall, trying to engage on you with his stun. Last thing is his ult - he might go all in, then he has nothing anymore and you survive, so you start going aggro on him with W - don't forget that he can still turn on you with his ult!! Though generally it's not that hard lane if you are paying attention on what he is doing and what is he cappable of.”
SkellyBirb says “Ekko's dash and shield can be a huge issue for Bard. Play safe or try to gain your advantage by roaming rather than 1v1ing him. If he charges his dash, try to position yourself in a way where you can stun him with your Q. Play near walls if necessary to avoid getting stunned by him.”
Frixen says “Ekko has really good waveclear, so it is possible that he pushes you in, however if you play it correctly, you can poke him at all times pre-6 and most of the time he cannot return the damage as he is fairly low range. Don't get into all in short range trades, always keep your distance, be mindful of your autospacing and you should have no issue.”
FalleN3 says “Ekko can be a nuisance to lane against but after level 6 he becomes an easier target for you. You need to dodge his (Q) in order to not give him tonnes of free harass. Once level 6 arrives go kill him, just be aware of his Ultimate and don't get trolled into making a silly engage. Ideally your jungler will have some hard CC in order to lock him down during ganks, otherwise he can be quiet slippery.”
Bouhhsolene says “Play comet and start E so you can be sure to poke in the early Levels. Try to hit E when he uses E on you, or when his E is on cooldown. Try to stay out of his Q range, watch out for gank ,play safe post 6 and ping out his roams. If he roams try to take plates or create a CS lead. In teamfight, try to CC him, aim your E at his zone.”
Faithyatta says “One word; Miasma.
You can out kite him, prevent him from dashing, out trade him, etc. by dodging his skillshots, and forcing a zone on him with your miasma. Post-6 you can even miasma to prevent him from ulting!”
Ambience14 says “Similar to Akali, Ekko is difficult to kill but won't have much kill pressure on you if you play smart. Dodge his Q and W and there's nothing he can do. Try to force his ult without using your own whenever you have an advantage. Similar to Mundo, an Ekko without ult can be severely punished. This forces him to play much safer and if he engages again, it's a free kill.”
Reason97 says “His all in can hurt, but it's tricky for him to pop your shield as long as you pay attention. His setup will hurt if he land's it, but it's easy to see coming and avoid as long as you don't take unnecessary risks. ”
Etyrnal says “Ekko has really good Wave Clear that can match us and even be better than us, on top of an Ultimate that can save his life often. I tend to focus my Champion Ban on Ekko”
Poppi Sama says “Skill based matchup, however in the patch [9.19] Ekko has been over-tuned, and is being abused in this patch. Look for opportunity to poke with your long range Q's or Charms under your turret.”
xAsuta says “Ekko has a lot of damage but not enough to kill you. Pre 6 you should be able to dominate the lane. Lvl 6 is his huge power spike since he literally has 2 lives.”
BloooodTV says “D-Blade. Windwall his Q, deny him getting cs and get him behind in levels/gold, you get your ult first and then just all in. Outscales you. Take Fleet or Conq (Depends on team comp).”
sashadidntwalk says “He could poke you out over and over again in early game and if they are good - kite you to low health. Otherwise, go in for a trade after he Qs so you can poke him down.”
xRumk says “Slightly favoured towards you because he comes close so you can land your e but his mobility is strong enough for him to go 0/2 in lane and still be more proactive on the map than you”
Fadedreformed says “Free lane you outrade , outscale and outroam him. He never wins trades because of your q shield you can actually go after him in his roams and get ahead from them”
DaggerTV_ says “Ekko after 6 can be very anoying.
He will outrade you at lvl 2, but you can beat him if you get lvl 2 or lvl 3 before he does. Be careful of his ult and when he has it up, play acordingly and ult before he ults to reduce his healing by 60%.”
ShockMaster says “Poke him hard in Pre 6 and be carefull with his ult,you can t go all in on him cause he have his ult and you are in this situation a little bit useless,ask your jungler help”
Yuki H. says “Ekko's passive allows for his "hit and run" style of play, but Zed doesn't necessarily encounter that problem since he himself has a lot of mobility as well. Stand behind minions to force Ekko to Q the minion wave early so the wave shoves to you. Until he has a decent amount of AP and points in Q, it will not be enough for him to clear the wave just with one Q, putting him in an awkward position where the minions are low. You can take advantage of this and punish him every time he tries to cs. Try to build a cs lead over him. ”
Proma says “Dshield/Dblade/Sword & pots.
Skill based matchup. Start E lvl 1 and look to chunk him. Post 6 only ult him if he's cc'd otherwise he presses R and get a ton of health back.
Hardest part of the matchup is getting him off you as he gets a movement speed boost.”
Chiefsnake says “This matchup isn't really that bad. just don't get hit by the second half of his Q and you're good. If he engages on you lvl 2 with his E you can just instantly pop your q on him, use a corupting pot and either hit him with your W and auto as he walks back or use the extra MS from your W to kite back then bully him with autos”
Veralion says “HoB/DH/Beads. A bit tougher than it used to be after a few rounds of frankly unnecessary buffs. You can trade somewhat evenly into his combo assuming you can get your Q off before he backs off with his movement speed, but you will need beads to sustain through his frequently applied harassment pattern. HoB may discourage him from sticking around after going in, but it's unlikely you can complete combos through his Q slow and passive speed. He will outsustain you if played properly. W is fast enough to always avoid the recall on his Q, which is where all of his early harass comes from. Most of the time they use Q for lane pressure anyhow, so just don’t hug your creeps and you’ll be fine. You just need to watch out for his stun. Hightail it out of those bubbles when they go down, as it now lasts for an eternity. Never fight into that shield, it's far too big. Pay special attention to your lane position, as his gank assist is ridiculously powerful. If any jungler's CC touches you, you'll get bubble stunned for sure and are probably a very dead dragon. After 6, watch his shadow and do NOT let him ult on you. That s*** hurts. Wait for him to use Q on the wave, all in him, do your combo, and move to the side away from the clone. If he immediately retreats, take care you don’t chase him into his ult. You’ll probably have to all in for his ult and then again for the kill later. A HoB build may kill him before he can ult if he gets caught by CC near you. ”
I1oveZombie says “Its fairly easy to see what he does, and with the poke build you can win it easily id say.
Also if you can double bomb his ghost before he gets back from Ulting that's big.”
Grimkyle says “Ekko is annoying because of his ultimate which if you trade right he should be low and able for you to kill especially if you applied ignite on him you can also simply cancel his e blink on you and it also briefly stuns him because of cast time you can also abuse him early but he will sustain because of corrupting pots and his runes”
RikudouDovahkiin says “Every build of Ekko, mechanic is a not much of a threat to Vladimir since Vlad can easily dodge his stun and escape from his signature combo. Your sustain can help you to win trades more easily since Ekko relies on his leech style gameplay. With PR you can almost negate his slow something like 80%. Be aware of their jungler since Ekko can easily dive Vladimir and get away but you. Your sustain is the keystone in your lane but try to get at least 1-2 scores from him since his tankyness and damage cannot be ignored.”
Silva San says “You are pretty immobile until you have about 3 points in E and some boots so when Ekko leaves vision never stand still don't follow and ward over a wall always listen for the sound q for his W that is vital.”
ai darkfluid says “He should never realistically lose lane. This matchup will consist of you getting one shot, even while ahead while only tickling Ekko. His ultimate can get him out of your stun field (before it can actually stun him), negate all your burst, and he can still run you over without it. Key note: survive for the late game; there is no early game. Play off jungler if they want to make a gank pre-6. There is very little counter play for Viktor.
Preferred rune: Phase Rush/Summon Aery/Comet”
Zoe Sparklepop says “He's a melee mid laner with no early kill pressure so you can just poke him down until he cries and spams /ff
But keep in mind to track his strong ganks, there's a reason this annoying time breaking kid is good in the jungle.”
snukumz says “He's a douche of a champion.
You can try to poke him but if he gets on you at level 2/3 you'll lose 50-75% of your HP.
Be very careful at level 5/6 because he can dive your tower and kill you and get away scott free with his ultimate.
Try to shove waves hard so that he can't roam and kill your team.
You win teamfights.”
1256 says “you outscale him easily, can almost always trade against him but has strong ulti more shove potential and more roam potential+2v2 in his favor so be careful
electro”
LightningTemplar says “He can R your R, or negate a lot of dmg from your R with his W. Yet you should be able to screw him up pre 6. You proc Domination easier than him, so do frequent short trades and don't let him proc his Domination on you and you'll win lane. You can also build Hexdrinker/Maw to remove any kill pressure he has.”
PepeOnDrugs says “Ekko can be a nuisance to lane against but after level 6 he becomes an easier target for you. You need to dodge his (Q) in order to not give him tonnes of free harass. Once level 6 arrives go kill him, just be aware of his Ultimate and don't get trolled into making a silly engage. Ideally your jungler will have some hard CC in order to lock him down during ganks, otherwise he can be quiet slippery.
”
panger 174 says “otro champ autista, no se que hacer contra el. pega una banda y es bastante tanque. juga a farmear, romear y oneshot al adc
(cometa/elec/dh(”
Debonair Karma says “Skill matchup. Neither of you have any kill potential in this lane, really. Focus on farming and always follow him if he roams. Any summoners work.”
Gageowago says “His q is very similar to Ahri's except that it slows you down a ton if it hits you so try and avoid it. If he hits a q on you he most likely will attempt to e to you and proc his passive and this is typically where you can land an easy charm. Take note of if he has hextech protobelt though, since he can use it to juke your charm at point blank. If you hear him start his w try and get out of where you are and be sure to not go straight backwards (this is also what you should do if he disappears for several seconds). Ekko typically will put it behind you so that you walk into it. Post-6 he will be able to ult away from being one shot so don't commit to an all in unless you know you can kill him twice.”
BigFatCat909 says “Ekko is quite an easy matchup, just remember that you dont always have to wait for his ult before you use your ult. My favourite fight to have against ekko is the ones where he tries to engage with a w stun, ult him to dodge the stun and turn that into an all out brawl.”
KitsyMamori says “Oh lord, this will be hard. Try to knock him away when he engages. He has alot of burst so be careful with a HP-bar lower then 50%. Try to poke and farm a bit, but don't be too aggressive. ”
Kataspina says “Ekko is a easy matchup for kat. Go for Dark harvest and play hard aggro on him. As long as you stack DH alot you should be able to fuck him up and by this point you should showball hard and you will be able to 1v9 easily.”
Lil Tidepod says “Ekko is really mobile. He has a really long stun if he manages to hit it and his ultimate is basically an "oops, I messed up" reset. It's a get out of jail free card that I'll continue to hate until I inevitably stop playing League of Legends. If you're going to trade with him, make sure to dodge his Q. That's his bread and butter ability and he needs it to stack his passive. If you dodge it, root him in place and get that E Q off. It will chunk lots of health. If he uses his E, simply W him before he uses the blink on it.”
Fhizzikx says “This champion has lots of mobility and burst. You will probably get pushed in and he can easily dive you if you're low enough. Try to keep the wave thinned out and prevent it from crashing because if it crashes he will dive you with his w shield e auto and r if he needs to. If you can play this matchup properly you can win pretty easily. Keep in mind where his r is so you don't get caught by his r because that ability CHUNKS. If you do however be prepared to flash out.
Play off of cooldowns as he is also a mage and trade from a distance. ”
Capparelli says “I don't see him often but when I do it sucks, his damage early is way higher then yours don't fight him, if you hit 6 before him somehow engage and blow him up if you don't look to trade safely and roam, if you bait his R hes an easy kill, try to keep canopy ready for if he stuns you or tries to dive on you”
BigBushMan says “Not much to say here, just don't let him stun you with his W and you should be able to survive this lane and maybe even look to solo kill him. He will have the waveclear advantage, so look to freeze and call over your jungler. ”
ahrienthusiastmain says “You can perma shove in the wave to avoid trades. A good ekko will always outdamage you if he gets a good angle and dodges your charm. Ekko with first cloud drake is very strong, making it a major threat. He will probably outscale you as well and have high mobility. Thus, you need to build mobility as well. ”
MartinMorningstar says “He wants to fight, he will fight, he will rage when he cant use R due to CC, its cute. Fight him in lane or when you have liandry's and he should be very manageable. Care for his ult and him getting the engage on you. ”
Astalfo says “He can and WILL play with you like its all fun and games for him, try to bait his R, keep your volume up so you can hear the 'ding' when he activates his W, when you hear that, try to move in an unpredictable way as you don't know where he's placed the stun zone.”
serruh says “although this champ is very unbalanced in the jungle, it's actually very manageable in mid and it just happens that it's been one of the ryze's easiest matchups since forever. early trades are free if you root him since he cant just zoom away with passive and actually takes meaningful damage, your EW just fucks him in general since he cant even ult while he's cced. Can prove to be a threat later on in sidelane, but you have the edge through the majority of the game”
RockitoAhri says “Not that easy, be aware of Ekko throwing W's after backing behind a wall. Don't get hit by the Q. Keep an ultimate charge to catch up on him after he uses his R. ”
coongang says “arrest him he aint no threat. he just a criminal. its just smth about the color of his skin that makes me think that way. not sure doe.”
ER1KLB says “Hard Match-UP. His R is a free "out of jail" and all your effort is in vain ...
He has CC, damage, EVERYTHING.
You'll have to be really skilled if you want to 1v1 him.”
Zontasuna says “You have to destroy him in early, or you will easile get upset when he uses his R and just recovers all hp you have done to him... You end up without your R vs very good champion”
M1keSujeffki says “He has good burst but he is a melee champ with only his E as a gap closer. His W is quite predictable. Q him if he walks towards you to engage, be careful of where his "past self" is. Avoid extended trades as his passive gives him an advantage.”
theboywhodominatedaplat says “he can wave clear better than you pre 3 , try to poke him with your Q and if he trades trade back untill you reach level 4 and bait his shield and then all in him, once he gets to level 6 always harrass him before he uses his ulti so when he R's his HP dont be full ”
Sloyr says “His Passive damage is really high, so you have to dodge his Q and then go for trades, always dodge his W and try to force him to use his R without risking too much. Once he builds Lichbane and Protobelt he will always kill you. In teamfights try to apply your 60% healing reduction with R so that he doesn't heal much from his R.”
Yas Yasu Yasuo says “Try to all in if you hit 6 first. Get Hexdrinker when behind and his ult is a massive threat to your ult, or to dodge your full combo. Call your jungle for easy kills, otherwise levels 3-5 would be good choices to all in.”
G7_Zeke says “He's complete cancer. Honestly, the only thing that makes Ekko so strong is his R. You're gonna all-in him? Well, he's gonna all-in you, and then he's gonna press R, and finish you off. He's pretty much just a press-r champ. (Not trying to insult Ekko mains, just salty over how cheesy you all are.)”
Gogicha55 says “Most Ekko's will dodge your second W With E and try to jump on you, so you just time your Q to leap and pull your second W back to him and proc Your passive, i have never met a good ekko so i can't tell you much here but he can beat you lvl 6 and outscales you so either roam or stomp him in lane and close out the game early”
8wolf says “Good waveclear for an assassin, and good sustain with his shield and ult. Poke him out and if he engages on you ult and dash away. Luckily, he is not that mobile compared to other assassins.”
MrRiots says “Starting Item: Dorans + Potion
This is a hard matchup, hell get close, hell stun you and then rewind time. But not impossible, poke alot and harass early game.”
Tehqo says “He is melee, so it is easy to outpoke him, but once he reaches 6, he's almost unkillable. The worst part is that he can just go through your ult with his blink. Even if you ult him under turret, he just ults himself out. The only times you might be able to ever kill him is when his ult is down. BE WARY OF HIS STUN.”
NebuIa says “Ekko is good into Zoe because he can build merc treads and never die. You can pressure him hard early but he will be very frustrating to deal with after a few items. He just splits and you can't deal with it, so make sure to try and smash him early.”
Je Suis Azir says “Fuck this guy, you are going to have to stay at max range. Just CS perfectly and remain at length to avoid him getting his entire stupid kit on you. Good news is, if you do not get hit by his Q, his kit becomes much less powerful. Be mindful of his cooldowns, and remember he's a dick who can all in for no reason. Awareness is the game, just be aware of his kit and his cooldowns.”
Impswitch says “Dont get stuned and just poke as much as you can. His ult makes it hard to get kill confirms but you should be able to go even pretty easy. what sucks is he can push lane pretty hard making it hard to roam.”
Dgraider says “This matchup is free for Rumble. I'd advise starting Doran's Ring into this one. If Ekko jungle, you can fight the 1v2 as long as you dodge his stun(try to get him and your laner with your ultimate) and have your R”
KingBladePlayZ says “He's border lining even and major threat, the treat of his w can put him in a good spot against a Kat, wait for him to use either w or e then try for a trade but don't over commit as his damage can be quite much.”
ioannissid says “He is the master of baiting people so as long as you fight him without his cooldowns you can win but careful his cooldowns are really small”
DravensBukkake says “Ignite matchup.
Harass him at all costs. Don't let him farm. If he spams Q on your wave, also shove since he's trying to shove and roam, so make the lane even so he can't. Place soldiers ontop of minions when they're low, force him to farm with Q. If he suddenly disappears for a bit, he's walking back to place W, so also walk back. If he's gone for a while, just go back and shove the wave in, as he backed or is roaming. If he manages to E ontop you, E away, pause, AA Q AA him to proc electrocute. Constantly harass, constantly harass, cannot emphasize that enough.”
Mid Win Repeat says “You can solo kill him all day before level 6. What makes him a threat is his one item power spike. Taliyah cannot do much to prevent Ekko from getting fed off of a level 6-7 bot roam on Ekko. The key to this match up is be extremely proactive and aggressive, once hes down keep him down.”
MarkeleleYasuo says “always use w when he casts his e blink at you, if he gets ahead this lane can be a pain in the ass so dont give him many opportunities ”
Marumo says “Threat level 9.
Of course Veigar doesn't like to play burst champions, but Ekko is really high on the list of hatred. Ekkos ult can effectively nulify your, preventing you from doing exactly what you want to. Your cc isn't a certain hit, and with the large cooldown you likely won't have it up (in the low levels) either to stop his ultimate.”
YeeDS says “Ekko mid has become popular and with ignite he can be very dangerous. Watchout for his level 3 it can be deadly and if you see his w on you don't be afraid of flashing. You counter him with your E W combo because then he can't ult..”
Rider0 says “his lvl 2 burst is insane with q and e, i'd recommend taking pool 2nd, also cannot one shot him while his ult is up so don't wast your combo on him.
pushes the wave insanely fast early on and last hitting under tower early is rough, try to match his waveclear or force him to throw q's at you and not the minion wave and just outscale. Make sure to ward areas in the river as he will just look to push and roam”
EvilBird090 says “Try to bait out Ekko Q level 1 on yourself so it does not hit the wave and push it. Ekko is very abusable in lane as he is melee. When you Q him he probably wants to E onto you, you can try to pool that but be sure to pool his 3rd stack as it is very most of his burst damage lies. With ignite and ult you can look for a kill even if he has ult available. Most of the time you are just gonna be able to win this matchup because of the ranged vs melee advantage.”
teekayem says “A good Ekko has answers for a lot of your kit, and can deny you kills while keeping you at your tower so you never roam. If you win the lane he's not a problem, but I would say this is one of Diana's harder matchups.”
Cloud375 says “Honestly, Ekko is rather annoying. He can burst you quite easily from level 2 if you do not position correctly. The best thing to do is to let the waves come to you and have your jungler gank as much as possible or damage your way into a kill range.”
Tayna says “Ekko will harass you but you just have to save your Q, everytime he gets close, get him with your Q, put a W, and watch him slowly die lol it's so fun!”
Garybaldo says “Early game he outpushes and outbursts you, he will fall off late game but be careful in teamfights as his stun will be a pain in the ass, stay pasive in lane and wait till you outscale. Use your W to see if he's roaming, spam-ping the hell out of sidelanes when missing, he has great roam potential”
Fairy Tale says “Hard to play against but winnable matchup. Try to poke him early game and make him miss minions. After Ekko reaches lvl 6 gonna be annoying to play against him. Try to build a lead before 6 against him.”
minebaby says “Its hard for u to kill him, so just farm.
Dont focus so much in him, is better for you to help your bot side and win a free ADC kill since that you can one shot EASLY!”
Novok says “Not that easy, be aware of Ekko throwing W's after backing behind a wall. Don't get hit by the Q. Keep an ultimate charge to catch up on him after he uses his R. ”
Flakees says “In this one you both have 3 abilites, since Ekko can just ult when you ult and no one takes damage, BUT, his ult gives him some health back whilst your is just completly removed, so i think you can win vs Ekko, but your snowball potencial is lower compared to other mids.”
Euphoric Toaster says “So long as you dodge his stun, and most of his Qs, this is a very easy lane. Early on, you're able to harass him HEAVILY and set him very far back. If at any point he ever uses his E to jump on you or to last hit a minion, you get a free stun on him when he uses the second part (the blink) meaning unless he can oneshot you or stun you, he should never be able to kill your. If you play correctly, any all-in attempt by him should result in either you bursting him and killing him before he Ults, or just a trade of Ults. He DOES however get to the point where he can pretty quickly push waves with his Q, but you still should be able to match or out-shove him most of the time.”
J Husky says “This guy can't be more easy to win. He is melee so you can harass him with auto attacks and your Q. Everytime he cast his E against you, he will lose the trade because you can hit him with the entire combo and he won't be able to scape. A good ekko will play very safe against you. If he is going to stun you with his W-E , just E and W.”
Big Shawn says “A champion who you should win against, but also not under estimate. There are good Ekko players out there, meaning you shouldn't be too confident against one as his Outplay Potential is high.”
SeeEl says “He's literally just ASOL but melee. Will try shove you in with Q and roam or go for solo kills if you are gorilla enough to sit there and let him stun you.”
Big Shawn says “Kennen vs Ekko. As I main both of these champs, I can confirm that it is disgusting for both sides to meet each other. Ekko's passive allows for the high damage to be triggered on Kennen should Kennen be caught off-guard. From Kennen's perspective, the CC you have available should allow you to win trades against Ekko, especially when stunned.”
Fox1ne says “Take barrier on this one,all you have to do is try to roam. The lane is really hard to win cause of his all in and kill potential on you. And his ulti makes him unkillable laner and impossible to win against.”
DVL CHALLNGR says “You MUST build Hexdrinker in Early Game and don't approach him because his Passive can do much damage that you won't absorb
If you dodge his Q he will struggle doing Passive to you because he will need E
You can dodge his W stun with your R but he can absorb your damage with his shield and can easily dodge your shurikens and Mark with his R”
ZenonZeni says “Ekko is considered an even matchup against ahri. When playing against him try to kill him before level 6 then roam hard. But otherwise, he will become a threat.”
Shwaggy says “He can repeatedly go in on you without much consequence most times with his burst of damage and MS. He is also hard to lockdown with his ult and movement.”
Wizboy73 says “this match is dependand on who is better. You both scale amazing. ekko has his R but cant use it when stunned so focus him if you get him in your R, take barier or TP to get a quick hex core upgrade.”
EvilOranges says “D-Blade. This is easy because he cannot trade with you. Windwall his Q, and watch for his E-Q-Protobelt-AA combo. Stay out of his W stun and you will be fine. He will shove the wave over and over again, but you can too, so follow his roams.”
empoleonz0 says “Like most mobile champions, can easily scooch out of the way of your slow moving Q; watch cooldowns on his E and try to bait him into coming closer before turning on him with a Q+E”
x3SnowyBunny says “You should be able to almost always sidestep his Qs. Watch out for his Ult's shadow as he might try to go all in on you if he manages to land it on you.”
schulti012 says “This matchup can be really snowbally but you can win trades early with Q-W. Trade when his Q/E is down. After 6 you can look for all-ins, you can zone and outroam him.”
Vispectra says “Some what of an even lane tilting towards your favor. Of course a good Ekko will be slippery and be a pain in the ass really but usually you'll be okay in lane, be mindful of ganks as he sets them up pretty well.”
Zero Two says “Dodge his Q and play safe. Early, you will destroy him if you keep your distance. Hang back, and look for engages whenever possible. After level 6, play even safer and keep in mind that his ult can be used as both an escape and damage ability.”
MamaDuck says “Ekko is a scary pick against Talon. He has amazing poke, very high damage and a good wave clear. I would recommend to focus landing your "W" on him. It slows him (which could lead to him dead) and deal a bit of damage to him. Poke him down until he backs up or dies with a combo from you. I recommend to take it quite easy and only go for the kill if you are 100% sure you will get it.”
Best Akali Fra says “Ekko is one of the lowest counter of Akali... But he can also poke you from behind minions (Ekko Q) and trade you easily with no escape if ekko's W/Z has been perfectly placed (Ekko W/Z = Slow / Stun) !!”
SepekuAW says “Easy in lane, impossible late game.
He has everything he needs to woop your ass mid-late game. Tons of mobility, high burst damage, and a reset that gives all his hp back. NEVER ulti ekko unless you land your stun!!
In lane it's easy, just punish him whenever he goes to farm. never use your E on him until he E's.. only Q + auto poke.. the second he uses his E to dodge your q he's going to jump you.. W your Q sphere and throw it on top of yourself.. then stun him,, step back a bit.. q him and auto his ass down.”
Pumparum says “Ekko can clear fairly efficiently but his manapool isn't very big. He may assume he can kill you and engage on you depleting his mana even fast. As long as you dodge the stun you will always trade better.
He may get fed up and roam in which you can easily follow, or you can clear and roam after he has wasted all his mana and needs to back.”
ClemexD10 says “Against Ekko you only need to avoid him from hitting the 3rd ability/basic of his passive, dodge his W (it will be easy since its cast is very perceptible).”
Zeprius says “Annoying but no one knows how to play Ekko except SaintKillian (No offence) ... just go Morellos as 4th item if he is catching up to you... if he gets ahead just farm underturret... he wont be able to dive you unless he hits his stun and you dont have pool.”
Galactroce says “Ekko est un redoutable assassin! Il peut facilement esquiver votre Z grâce à son E et éviter comme Ahri votre ult avec son E et Ult. Et étant un assassin très fort et ''safe" il peut vous faire de gros dégâts même sous votre tourelle et survivre avec son R.”
unownreality says “he will survive your burst and clear lanes fast. Don't let him close the gap. Try not to use your full combo unless his ult is on cooldown. Ekko can just as easily kill you after returning. ”
kilgta says “laning phase can cause some problems although you usually trade him decent. Teamfights are all yours. ult him when hes close to half hp so he cant use his ult. He will outshove you level 1 to 3. Use your W after he has used his Q, this will allow you to have a better shove. Try to ult him when hes half health or lower with a teamate close so he cant ult and just die. You can also predict his ult and ult after he used his. Do not overpush. A good ekko is a 10, a bad ekko is a 1. Start corrupt pot.”
MechaaZero says “I have no problem with this lane. All you have to do is wait for him to make an attempt to engage, get good positioning, land and E,Q, and things will fall in line. They have for me every time.”
CC Diana says “Ekko is a better Diana with slightly less burst damage. He has the CC Diana craves and a get-out-of-jail-free card in his ult. At level 2, he will often E onto you to ensure he hits his Q and proc his passive. When he does this, use your W and poke him with Q -> AA. If you are running Electrocute you should out-trade him. Due to the similarities between Diana and Ekko, the matchup isn't very difficult, just incredibly annoying since he has a reset button. Despite being stronger at the early levels, you outclass him damage wise once you hit 6 so use that to your advantage.”
maplecat21 says “Super easy matchup, unless the ekko is super good. I only know 1 ekko who's beaten my anivia, and even that's only because we practiced laning against each other for a while with these picks to learn the matchup thoroughly. Dodge the stun, hit your stun, and you're good.”
EvilOranges says “Corruption Potion. Similar to Katarina, but he will push over and over and over again. Farm under turret, and try not to get poked by his Q. When trading, dodge at least a part of his Q to let you trade back. If he procs his passive he will just run away.”
RagexAddict says “Ekko is more of a skill matchup for Fizz. The key to beating an Ekko in lane is to wait for him to throw a Q at you to try to wave clear and/or harass. When that ability is down, try to go in on him to win trades or all in him. Be mindful of your positioning against Ekko when he turns level 6. Don't get baited or caught out by his ultimate.”
Wrxith says “Quite hard. Harder for pyke early since pyke doesn't have too much damage early. His shield and dmg can be hard to counter. He can also R away from your ult.”
poolooto says “You can kill him early on (levels 2-4) if you dodge his Q. The lane becomes easier if you have an early lead. Once he gets his R and some HP items, it will be very hard to kill him. ”
SrSuders says “Ekko und Talon sind definitiv gleich stark wie ich finde. Demnach kommt es hier aufs Decision Making an.
Weicht man der Ekko W aus, hat man gute Chancen den Trade zu gewinnen, demnach sollte man den Schild abklingen lassen.”
LyndonK9 says “When he e's on you it makes him an easy charm target and you win most trades as long as he doesn't get his passive off so dodge his Q. You usually can't all in him because of his health recovery from his ult, but if you poke him beforehand his ult will recover less health. If you decide to all in try not to burst him down instantly but stall out the fight longer, that way he recovers less health and his ult won't warp him to safety.”
PhoenixianSlayer says “He can't do anything to you if you keep your distance, and try to keep your stars both on him and his double when chasing him. That way it would be pointless to redo since he will just die, just running in the opposite direction”
YourBestSenpai says “Look out for his e, he can get to you easily and destroy you if you miss your charm. Care about his w as well. Pretty hard to kill as he will heal MOST of the damage you deal with his ult.”
borsamalac says “He has good waves shove with Q spam, try to do same and harass him at early game.The problem with him is he can do fast trades and run away with his passive. Keep the range so if he cant use E you are good. If he is missing usually he is waiting in the other side of the wall to stun you. Save your W for this or to disengage when he use E.”
Yenwai says “he CAN get you if you over extend with less than 4 minions but otherwise dodge his Q and make sure to bait his R before yours unless you have the jungler coming to gank.”
BL00dY3nD says “You can dodge his W (Stun) by using you E+W combo(use E for dealing damage to him cause he will get close to you) if you can just out run his W. ”
Charon25 says “Peut être compliqué à tuer après le niveau 6, mais pas de difficultés particulières sinon.
Ignite important pour counter la régen de son ult.”
CharmingFeather says “Pretty big threat just because of his ult and large bursts. So try to just poke with your Q until he is low enough to go in. But before you go in, wait 4 seconds because of ult.”
QueenBrie says “People say he's a big counter but I've never lose to ekko as vlad in my life, it's a matchup that just works for some people and doesn't for others.”
vukashin.xyz says “Dodge at least his 2nd Q
Go for W>E>Q when he doesn't have Q
He can dodge you R with his R
And be carefull when he isn't on map since he is probably roaming or charging W
Dont trade when he has W shield
He is not huge threat but you wont kill him easily
Use 3rd rune setup”
AzureArmatt says “Ekko is tricky match up because he can rewind time and heal back the portion of your burst, your best bet is to try catching him with your charm + orb of deception combo so it will proc electrocute and if he will be low on hp force him to rewind (don't forget to ignite him to reduce his healing) then you will go with your ultimate for a kill. he's an assassin so his burst potential is quite hard, don't let him stack his passive on you (blue ring around you) and don't stay in same place where his clone is since his ultimate has insane scaling. Avoiding his stun is basic + his zone will give him shield so don't waste your spells when he has it.”
JV10 says “PRE 3
Farm will be easier than most champs, try to avoid his Q and you should be safe. Just farm up.
LEVEL 3
If you have the lane in your tower just try to poak him.
If jungler shows make sure you hit that E, after he will flash, aim that Q to make sure you bring him back and finish him.
LEVEL 6
You need to all in him if you reach 6 before him otherwise don't.
Try to reach 6 before him check your XP bar once you are 1/2 minion away try to stun him with your E while killing the last minions to reach 6. (HARD TO DO)
After just tap Q -> Tiamat -> AA -> R
He will die.
AFTER 6
Ekko will try to roam, if he doesn't a lane against Ekko is not that hard. avoid his Q and if you will be ok.
If he hits the Q just make sure you try to go near your tower if he jumps to you use Your Q to throw him to the tower and E towards your tower stunning him in tower range.
NOTES:
Make sure you utilize you Tiamat under the tower for some sick combo. (Low minions health while he is behind them in cover, then once you know you can kill the minion he is behind with Tiamat use Tiamat, Q him to tower range, use E (try to get him and other minions) Ignite --> AA (ulty if required))”
Hatzo1vs9 says “The only match up you can actually take ignite , he is melee so you can poke him to death , if he tries to E on you use your w+aftershock and after 6 with ignite he is absolutely doomed
”
OmegaSquadVeigar says “Shoves you in early, you can take trades with him as long as he doesn't have shield, try to poke him whenever he tries to cs/push the wave. Always watch out for his ult's hologram.
Mid game/Late game this matchup is kinda easy, as long as you land your stun you should be able to burst him down before he can even use his Chronobreak.
If he gets ahead/you're afraid that you might get bursted down by him, take Banshee's Veil.”
Shaawn says “Skilled matchup, he will always try to perma shove the wave to get safe cs, try to harass him when he doesn't have his q, be aware when he goes out of vision, as most Ekko players will be looking to land a W (stun) on you.”
Dudstrol says “Ekko segue quase o padrão da Diana, ele entra causa o dano só que após isso ele foge. Por isso evite de chegar perto dele e faça pequenas trocas para tirar a vida dele e não deixa-lo a vontade na rota.”
Valor_Chaos says “Skill match up. Fairly easy, just dont get caught in his q. If he engages on you when your passive is stacked then just whap him with q and e and youll win trades. ”
Jazzmonkey says “Easy matchup. He will use his Q to farm, trade him after that. Try to kill him befor hitting 6. You will win everytrade. Go curroption Potion vs him. ”
overweight_zoe says “Wave clear match up but you'll get more opportunity to harass him. Just make sure to maximize your Q's to allow you clear while also harassing. Can be a hard lane if you allow him to shove you in.”
kyuwui says “You should definitely play safe especially if its a good player, once he gets ahead of you he can practically one shot you if you don't have health.”
Jammy158 says “Block his Q with windwall during trades. Harass with Q if he steps up for CS. He can outshove you and roam so warn your team. If he's MIA, he might look to W in lane from fog of war, respect that. At 6, it's very much a skill matchup.”
Jahim says “This is a skillmatchup. Dodge the frist part of his Q with your E then when it comes back around if you havent already used ur Q you're going to want to Q to dodge the second part of it”
Jenkinsu says “Ekko's range is abysmal which makes it easy for you to abuse. Dodge his slow disc thingy and he can't do much. Keep him at a distance and you should be fine”
Junix L9 says “You can try to get your Dark Harvest stacks out of him, because he is an AP Melee Champion like you.
Don't get hit by his W or you will lose the trade. ”
Eli The Bat says “Another tank like mid champion....
Avoiding his "E" will prevent him from doing whatever he wants.... but even with that, he still has Explosive damage, so be carefull when laining against him....”
apsonalol says “Ekko é bem móvel e chato de lidar, porém por ele ser melee, você força que ele farm usando as habilidades será muito bom para você ter controle da rota, já que ekko gasta bastante mana no começo do jogo, só tome cuidado se ele vir pra cima de você com E , guarde sempre a passiva do W para quando ele fizer isso, vai evitar com que ele mate você, tente pegar lvl 6 primeiro que ele, assim você consegue matar ele ou setar um gank com seu jungler”
Dr Wonderdrugs says “Ekko du simple fait d'être un assassin ne vous facilitera pas la tâche votre second problème c'est qu'il à lui aussi la capacité de regen ses pv en utlisant son R. Quant à son E lui permettant de dash lui collé une bombe est difficile pour un débutant.”
moutenn says “Ekko is not that hard of a matchup. His r does counter yours but it is not a problem. You just have to send out your combo, and see what he does. If he R's here, just use you R. But mostly just AA him until he has to R. Then you can R.”
Itsyaboyorchid says “Ekko is very similar to Fizz, with 2 exceptions, he doesn't scale nearly as quickly as Fizz. On top of that, his R can absorb most of your damage, paired with ignite or a solid stun, you should be able to do the trick. Banking on your burst isn't quite reliable, so bank on out scaling him. Once you hit level 3, your ability to control the wave with Q-E-W should be able to starve out the opponent. Make sure to actively poke him when he attempts to farm, and if he gets low enough/you hit 6 before him, kill him. The sooner you snowball the better.”
LCAU says “yucky champion again, no idea how to play against him. he scales too hard and has a stun that counters ur ult. ask for ganks. start long sword+pots.”
Draczor says “On level 1 you can poke him freely with Q and pressure him away but avoid getting too near him as you will be in range of his Q and the dmg that you will take will be devastating if he can proc his passive on you. After level 2 do not get too close to him and poke him with your laser. If he uses his Q on the wave then you can go and freely poke him, be aware of his Q that returns to him. If his ult is up don't chase him, otherwise you have a risk of dying. Make sure to pay attention if he goes out of vision, it is possible that he casted his W on you so walk a little back just to be safe. If he uses his E on you you can place your gravity field on him. The moment he get's stunned you can either just use Q + AA and E or all in on him with your ultimate if he has no ult up.”
Dralexus says “I personally win again most Ekko's, but a good one knows how to escape death. So try to bait his ulti, heal up and go in again. DO NOT ULTI WITH HIS ULTI UP UNLESS U INSTA KILL HIM !”
Gambinos says “I feel as if a good Ekko can go against a Good Yas evenly. Ekko has a stun ability. Try avoiding that as much as you can.
When going against an Ekko, try wasting his ult, that way, you can end him off you with your ult or such. Wind wall his Q if it's about to hit you as it slow you down.”
Sozzoh says “Ekko is melee, so poke him pre-6 as hard as you can. Be careful though, a good Ekko can 100-0 you at level 3. Once Ekko reaches 6, he is almost unkillable. Ekko can also blink over your ult, so be careful. The only time you may be able to kill him post-6 is when his ult is down. His stun is fairly easy to dodge, but still be careful if you're not paying attention.”
Witwickies says “Yes, you can poke him as much as you can. But unfortunately, you will probably be unable to kill him. What is more, he has kit enablig to simply blow you away is you will get cought out of position.”
undeadsoldiers says “He shouldn't be too big of a problem. He has a pretty good poke with Q and he will clear before you. Watch out for his shove>roam route.”
ZF.PandaYang says “Just don't stacked by his passive and hit by his W and you will be okay, be aware of his ult and ignite him so he can't reengage and fight again, MR boots and Hex are your go to.”
DaBigNut says “Just Ekko, stay away from Q and W and E and basically farm under turret if laning against him or wait for his ult/combos to be used before engaging.
Poking is highly recommended when fighting him and also rooting him up so he can neither dash in nor use any of his abilities nor auto attack since he is uses melee.”
Eccentrik says “Interestingly, one of the most passive matchups unless enemy team ganks first. Dodge his Q whenever it comes back, also, don't let him outscale you.”
iiCrispi says “Force a trade at him when he misses his q. If Ekko misses his q at you, he is very vulnerable to damage, but don't go all in for the most, you never know if he could make an outplay.”
Jukapiz says “Can be hard to counter especially when he has ult available. When you send your R to him, he can easily defend it by ult. He can also land some damage on you, focus to dodge.”
asffg123 says “Ekko can counter your E with his dash, and his mobility/burst will outtrade yours. His ultimate counters yours as well. Play safe and teamfight. Try to keep an equal laning phase.
Warning - This champion can and will roam to counter a safe playstyle. Ping accordingly.”
DuhBrandon says “With Ekko you should win trades until level 6 than you will start losing mainly because of his R. an Ekko wouldn't care about taking much damage because his ult makes him Tracer. And he will do more damage than you as the game goes on. So my advice to you is to farm till late game and make use of ganks because if you are ahead you should be fine.”
B3rt0nha says “Champion who can dodge (with difficulty but can get) of his abilities, when he arrives LV6 he can make you spend all your skills and come back to life”
Palme201 says “Ask for a early gank and you can outtrade him every time. Care for his 6 its annoying. His Late game is stronger than yours. Again... finish fast.”
VAJPi says “So probably you wont kill him often cuz of his R. Also he will always engage with his dash after your charm expires so keep your distance.”
Smol Jelly says “Ekko hits the reset button on your combos, quite literally. Try to poke him down so he ults before you go in for a one-shot combo. Otherwise, he can negate your entire burst.”
