Playing as Ekko

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Hit with your Q both ways

    Throw Timewinder (Q) at a champion, then position so the device passes through them again on its way back: it expands into a slowing field, and the return hits again.

  2. Three hits for your Resonance

    Hit with Timewinder (Q) out and back, and weave in the empowered auto from Phase Dive (E): the third hit triggers Z-Drive Resonance (passive), with bonus damage and speed.

  3. Step into your sphere

    Cast Parallel Convergence (W) where the fight will happen, then step into the sphere when it appears: you stun the enemies inside and gain a shield.

  4. Engage, then rewind time

    Engage, deal your damage, then cast Chronobreak (R): you return to where you were 4 seconds earlier, in stasis, and recover health based on what you lost.

Playing against Akshan

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Cut his swing short

    Step into the path of Heroic Swing (E) rather than turning your back: any contact with you ends the swing, and with it his repeated shots.

  2. Hide behind a minion

    Put a minion between you and him when he charges Comeuppance (R): the bullets stop on the first champion, minion or structure hit.

  3. Watch out after a kill

    After you kill one of his allies, keep your distance from Akshan: Going Rogue (W) marks you, and if he kills you, he revives the allies you killed.
