Good option - 35.8% of Ekko's games are in this role. Most popular build starts with Sorcerer's Shoes, then Lich Bane, Nashor's Tooth, and Rabadon's Deathcap. Ekko has low farm - 6.42 CS/min (#39 among Mid champions) and earns 410 gold per minute. Averages 2.3 KDA (#36 among Mid champions). Has a 3.2% ban rate (84th place). Ekko deals mostly magic damage, ideal for teams lacking AP threats. Best performing runes include Electrocute, Sudden Impact, Grisly Mementos, Treasure Hunter, (Domination) and Triumph, Legend: Haste, (Precision).

Ekko lore:

A prodigy from the rough streets of Zaun, Ekko is able to manipulate time to twist any situation to his advantage. He uses his own invention, the Z-Drive, to explore the branching possibilities of reality, crafting the perfect moment to seemingly achieve the impossible the first time, every time. Though Ekko revels in this freedom, when there's a threat to those he cares about, he and the Firelights will do anything to defend them.

Ekko tips:

  • Chronobreak is a potent escape tool, but it can also be quite powerful when used offensively. Don't underestimate its damage potential.
  • If you can proc Z-Drive Resonance on an enemy champion, it's worth taking risks to do so. The bonus Move Speed makes it easy to escape.
  • Phase Dive's dash is a great tool for setting up Ekko's other abilities. Use it to get double hits with Timewinder or get into position to detonate Parallel Convergence.

Playing Against Ekko

  • Ekko is significantly weaker when his ultimate is down. Watch for the trail he leaves behind to determine if Chronobreak is available.
  • Ekko's stun zone takes 3 seconds to arm. Watch for the image he creates on cast and try to guess where the zone was placed.
  • The second hit of Timewinder does more damage than the first; try to avoid it.

Ekko abilities description:

Z-Drive Resonance
P
Z-Drive Resonance (passive)
Every third attack or damaging spell on the same target deals bonus magic damage, and grants Ekko a burst of speed if the target is a champion.

Timewinder
Q
Timewinder (Q)
Ekko throws a temporal grenade that expands into a time-distortion field upon hitting an enemy champion, slowing and damaging anyone caught inside. After a delay, the grenade rewinds back to Ekko, dealing damage on its return.
Parallel Convergence
W
Parallel Convergence (W)
Ekko's basic attacks deal bonus magic damage to low health enemies. He can cast Parallel Convergence to split the timeline, creating an anomaly after a few seconds that slows enemies caught inside. If Ekko enters the anomaly, he gains shielding and stuns enemies by suspending them in time.
Phase Dive
E
Phase Dive (E)
Ekko rolls evasively while charging up his Z-Drive. His next attack deals bonus damage and warps reality, teleporting him to his target.
Chronobreak
R
Chronobreak (R)
Ekko shatters his timeline, becoming untargetable and rewinding to a more favorable point in time. He returns to whenever he was a few seconds ago, and heals for a percentage of the damage received in that duration. Enemies near his arrival zone take massive damage.
