Champion Build Guide

Basic introduction

1.
Aggressive

The Aggressive Ekko support, is the closest to the classic Ekko gameplay. It is focused around the 'Spelltheif Edge' support item, where you scale and get gold be damaging and poking, your enemies with the classic Ekko burst combo.

2.
Sustainable

The sustainable build, is focused around survival, and being able to stay longer in lane. The build, is playable to your preference, and is the more all around build. The build is focused on staying alive and enduring fights.

3.
Tank

The Ekko Tank build, is very unique compared to the classic Ekko gameplay. It is not a straight out tank like other support tanks. It is not as much about the damage you deal, but how you manipulate and control the game.

Pros and Cons

PROS

+ No one sees it coming (currently)
+ Heavy bot lane control
+ Massive burst
+ Crowd control
+ Anti-squishy (easily kills squishies)
+ The enemies need to play safe

is a assasin, kinda mage. He has massive burst, high mobility and a good amount of crowd control with his 'w' and 'q' , with a heavy stun and slow. Ekko can run into battle just as fast as he can run away from it. It's hard to escape him and with a bot-laner contantly shooting as well, it's hard to turn the fight around. Ekko controls the speed of the bot lane, as long as the freindly bot-laner isn't to bad, usualy gold or above can keep up.

CONS

- Weak against most tank supporters
- Engagements needs preperation
- Hard to scale if not experient
- Weak against crowd control
- Useless if don't control bush & alcove
- Hard to safe bot laner if ganked

Even tho, this might not be weak, it still definitely has its blind spots. Most noticeable is tank supports, they are not immune to his playstyle, just kinda counters it, if they go magic resistence, it's gonna be hard to do anything in botlane, else than just taking damage and doing crowd control, and then it is all up to the ADC.
This build is very squishy until it reaches lvl 6, especialy if they have a stun.

Ability details

PASSIVE
ABILITY

Z-DRIVE RESONANCE (Passive): 's basic attacks and damaging abilities apply Resonance to affected enemies for 4 seconds, stacking up to 3 times.
At 3 stacks, Resonance is consumed to deal 30 − 140 (based on level) (+ 80% AP) magic damage to the target, doubled to 60 − 280 (based on level) (+ 160% AP) against monsters, but capped at 600.

STOLEN TIME (Passive): If triggers Resonance against enemy Champion, he also gains 50 / 60 / 70 / 80% (based on level) bonus movement speed for 2 / 2.5 / 3 (based on level) seconds.

TIMEWINDER (Q): ACTIVE: throws a device in the target direction, dealing magic damage to enemies along its path.

After traveling 700 units or upon hitting an enemy champion, the device slows down for 1.75 seconds, expanding and creating a Temporal Sickness field that slows nearby enemies, while continuing to travel in its direction for another 190 units and expanding for another 50 units.

After finishing its path, the device contracts and returns to Ekko at a higher speed, dealing magic damage to enemies along its path.

The traveling and returning device cannot damage the same enemy more than once.

PARALLEL CONVERGENCE (W): PASSIVE: 's basic attacks deal 3% (+ 3% per 100 AP) of the target's missing health bonus magic damage to targets below 30% of their maximum health. The damage has a minimum threshold of 15 and is capped at 150 against minions and monsters.

ACTIVE: calls upon an afterimage that bats a device to the target location. After traveling over 3 seconds, the device expands to slow enemies by 40%, only revealing itself to enemies in the last 1 second.

If enters the expansion within the next 1.5 seconds after it lands, it detonates to stun any enemies within for 2.25 seconds, shielding him for 2 seconds.

PHASE DIVE (E): ACTIVE: dashes towards the target location, giving him Primed.

PRIMED: 's next basic attack has 300 bonus range, deals bonus magic damage, and causes him to blink to his target. The bonus magic damage is classified as ability damage.

CHRONOBREAK (R): PASSIVE: While Chronobreak is available, Ekko is followed by a time-delayed afterimage of himself that tracks where he was 4 seconds ago.

ACTIVE - BROKEN TIMELINE: traces back to his afterimage, entering stasis during the transportation, dealing magic damage to surrounding enemies on arrival and healing himself.

Summoner spells

SUMMONER SPELLS
-

FLASH: is not a 'must have' but is very highly recommended, to make sure you do not die or so you can get the kill. Flash is either and mostly recommended to be used to survive, and only if you are snowballing or far behind use it to get a kill.

IGNITE: is used to finish a kill, that's running away, e.g. under a turret. You should equip flash if you play the aggressive support, but can also be used on the others depending on your opposing champions.

EXHAUST: is recommended to us, in a fight after both your stun and slow has worn off. It can be used on all the 3 builds, but is mostly recommended for giving bot-laner kills and when you go tanky.

TELEPORT: should be equiped if multiple of your teamates have been counter-picked. Use this to gank other lanes either when a fight just started, is about to start or when they are positioning badly.

Main Runes - Work in progress...

DOMINATION
PRIMARY: A

This primary rune set 'A', is the standard rune set, usually combined with a secondary 1 and sometimes 2 depending on your enemies. If they are pokers with no vision control, go secondary 1, but if they are pokers with vision e.g. or , then you should go secondary 2, to sustain their poking.

should almost never be swaped out with one of the other Domination choices, because of its important for damage, burst and overall combo. But if you choose to help as much all lanes as bot lane, could be an option. But don't do this without some expirience in the playstyle.

is THE MOST important rune for , since it makes him so much stronger and works perfectly with the rest of his kit. It also works great with the playstyle of support, since you dash out of bushes and burst, and that extra tenacity and magic penetration, is extremly good throughout the entire game, but it's mostly because of the magic penetration though.
