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 Vi

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off when she charges her punch

    Back off or sidestep as soon as she charges Vault Breaker (Q): fully charged, it deals double damage, and charging slows her.

  2. Short trades

    Take short trades: on her third hit on you, Denting Blows (W) removes some of your armor and gives her attack speed.

  3. Save your CC for after her charge

    If you have CC, save it for after Cease and Desist (R): nothing stops her during the charge, but once she lands, your CC and displacement effects work on her again.
