Who Wins
- You lose early trades pre-6 due to Ekko's superior burst combo and wave control with Q.
- Post-6 you gain kill pressure with R mobility, but Ekko's R safety makes it a skill matchup rather than your favor.
How to Trade
- Use Q to interrupt Ekko's Q return damage and trade when his abilities are on cooldown.
- Your best windows are after he uses W aggressively or misses his Q sweet spot.
Wave Control
- Focus on last-hitting and avoiding extended trades early, using Q to farm safely from range.
- Push for level 6 quickly, then look for roam timings with R rather than forcing lane fights.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match Ekko's early wave control or take extended trades before level 6.
- Avoid standing in minion waves where his Q can hit both you and minions for maximum damage.
