Ekko's Abilities

Z-Drive Resonance Ekko's Passive

Self

Ekko's Zero-Drive charges his spells and attacks with temporal energy, making him build up Resonance stacks on enemies which last up to 4 seconds. Every third stack deals 30-140 bonus magic damage (150% damage vs monsters). If the target is a champion, Ekko also gains 50 / 60 / 70 / 80% movement speed for the duration. Z-Drive Resonance cannot affect the same target twice within 5 seconds.

Timewinder Ekko's Q Ability

1075

50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90

9 / 8.5 / 8 / 7.5 / 7

Ekko throws a device in a target direction, dealing 60 / 75 / 90 / 105 / 130 (+30% of ability power) magic damage to all enemies along its path. At maximum range or if it hits an enemy champion, the device slows to a stop and expands, creating a slowing field which slows enemies inside it by 32 / 39 / 46 / 53 / 60%.

After a short delay, the device contracts and rushes back to Ekko, dealing 40 / 65 / 90 / 115 / 140 (+60% of ability power) additional magic damage to all enemies along its path.

Parallel Convergence Ekko's W Ability

1600

30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50

22 / 20 / 18 / 16 / 14

Passive: Ekko's basic attacks deal bonus magic damage to enemies under 30% Health equal to 3% (+1% per 33 ability power) of their missing Health (min 15 and max 400 damage vs. minions and monsters).

Active: After a 3 second delay, Ekko creates a short-lived chronosphere at the target location that slows enemies who enter by 40%. If Ekko enters the sphere, he will detonate it, gaining a shield that absorbs 80 / 100 / 120 / 140 / 160 (+150% of ability power) damage for 2 seconds. Enemies caught inside are also stunned for 2.25 seconds.

Phase Dive Ekko's E Ability

325

40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60

9 / 8.5 / 8 / 7.5 / 7

Ekko dashes a short distance in the targeted direction. He gains 300 bonus attack range on his next attack, which deals 50 / 75 / 100 / 125 / 150 (+40% of ability power) bonus magic damage and teleports him to his target.

Chronobreak Ekko's Ultimate (R) Ability

Self

100

110 / 80 / 50 / 50 / 50

Ekko shatters his timeline, becoming untargetable and teleporting him back to wherever he was 4 seconds ago. Ekko heals himself for 100 / 150 / 200 (+60% of ability power) (+20% of the damage taken over the last 4 seconds), and deals 150 / 300 / 450 (+150% of ability power) magic damage to all nearby enemies on arrival.

Chronobreak's heal is increased by 3% for each 1% of maximum health lost in the last 4 seconds.

Chronobreaking through Parallel Convergence will trigger the stun and shield.
