What makes Ekko dangerous
Ekko slows and stuns with his Q and W, dashes with his E, and his ultimate rewinds him a few seconds back to a shadow — healing him and dealing a huge burst. If he plays aggressively and it goes wrong, his ult undoes it, making him very forgiving and slippery.
How to play against Ekko
- 1Bait out his ultimate — after he uses it he has no escape or reset for a while. Punish him hard in that window.
- 2Dodge his W (a delayed stun zone) — it's the setup for his all-in. Move out of the circle before it detonates.
- 3He's cooldown-reliant and squishy. Hard CC before he can E away catches him mid-combo.
- 4Track his roams — Ekko's speed and mobility let him gank other lanes. Ward and follow, and MR survives his burst.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Punishable window after his ultimate is used.
- ✓W stun is a dodgeable delayed zone.
- ✓Squishy — hard CC and burst delete him.
- ✓Weak early before he snowballs and gets items.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Ekko's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Ressonância Revo-ZCada terceiro ataque ou habilidade de dano no mesmo alvo causa Dano Mágico adicional e concede a Ekko um impulso de velocidade se o alvo for um Campeão.
Q
GiratempoEkko arremessa uma granada que se expande em um campo de distorção temporal ao atingir um Campeão inimigo, causando dano e reduzindo a velocidade de todos dentro de sua área de ação. Após um intervalo, a granada retorna em direção a Ekko, causando dano no trajeto de volta.
W
Convergência ParalelaOs ataques básicos de Ekko causam Dano Mágico adicional aos inimigos com Vida baixa. Ekko pode conjurar Convergência Paralela para separar a linha do tempo, causando uma anomalia após alguns segundos e reduzindo a velocidade de inimigos pegos por ela. Se Ekko adentrar a anomalia, ele receberá um escudo e acionará uma detonação que atordoa os inimigos, colocando-os em estase temporal.
Strong: a delayed zone that stuns — the setup for his all-in. Weak: move out of the circle before it detonates and his combo has no lockdown.
E
Mergulho FásicoEkko faz um rolamento evasivo enquanto carrega seu Revo-Z. Seu próximo ataque causa dano adicional e distorce a realidade, teleportando-o a seu alvo.
R
CronoquebraEkko estilhaça sua linha do tempo, tornando-se inalvejável e rebobinando para um ponto mais favorável no tempo. Ele retorna para qualquer ponto que esteve nos últimos segundos e se cura em um percentual do dano recebido nesta duração. Inimigos próximos a sua área de chegada recebem dano massivo.
Strong: rewinds him to a shadow, healing and dealing huge burst — undoes a bad dive. Weak: after it he has no escape or reset — bait it out, then punish him hard.
Itemization
Ekko is AP burst. Magic resist (Mercury's Treads, an MR item) and a Zhonya's/Banshee's answer him, and baiting his ultimate removes his safety. Track his roams with vision.
