When Ekko casts his W (large circular field), prepare to follow up if he enters it. The field stuns enemies for 2.25 seconds when Ekko enters it, creating perfect setup for your damage and crowd control abilities.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
Pay attention to Ekko's hologram (ghostly clone) that shows where he was 4 seconds ago. When fighting near this hologram, be ready to either follow up or back away if he uses R to return to this position and deal area damage.
Team Fight Skirmish
Help Ekko set up his W from fog of war by clearing and placing wards in side brushes and jungle entrances. Enemies only see the W indicator 2 seconds after casting, making unseen setups much more effective for catching opponents.
Skirmish Team Fight
At level 6, Ekko gains significant kill pressure and safety with his ultimate. Be ready to follow up when he takes more aggressive trades, as he can use R to escape if things go wrong or deal surprise damage if enemies chase him.
Basic Lane Phase Skirmish
When Ekko's R is on cooldown (110/80/50 seconds at levels 6/11/16), provide extra protection for him as he becomes much more vulnerable. During these windows, he needs to play more conservatively until his ultimate is available again.
Team Fight Skirmish
After Ekko lands 3 hits on an enemy champion (triggering his passive), he gains a significant movement speed boost. Use this window to either chase together for a kill or disengage if needed, as he can quickly reposition.
Skirmish Team Fight
Ekko's Q creates a slowing field (40-60% slow) when it expands. Time your skillshots and follow-up abilities when he lands his Q to take advantage of slowed enemies who will struggle to dodge.
Basic Skirmish Team Fight
During early laning phase, Ekko struggles against ranged champions and prefers to play safely. As a jungler, time your ganks after he reaches level 3, when he has access to all his basic abilities for better gank setup.
Lane Phase
In the late game, create vision control around objectives to help Ekko find flanking angles. His W stun is most effective when cast from fog of war, allowing him to catch multiple opponents by surprise.
Advanced Late Game Team Fight
After Ekko reaches level 16, his ultimate cooldown is reduced to just 50 seconds. Expect more aggressive ultimate usage for both damage and repositioning, and be prepared to capitalize on the chaos this creates in teamfights.
