Ekko Mid guide

Ekko mid is built around the same combo: Timewinder (Q) to slow and damage, Phase Dive (E) to close and hit again, and Z-Drive Resonance (passive) detonating on the third instance of damage for bonus magic damage and a burst of speed.

The build

Rune page: Hail of Blades, Sudden Impact, Grisly Mementos, and Relentless Hunter (Domination), with Absolute Focus and Scorch (Sorcery). Summoners: Flash and Ignite. Skill order opens Timewinder (Q) at level 1, then maxes Timewinder (Q) first with Phase Dive (E) second. Starter: Doran's Ring and two Health Potions, into Sorcerer's Shoes. Core build: Dusk and Dawn, Shadowflame, and Rabadon's Deathcap, with Dark Seal, Lich Bane, and Hextech Rocketbelt as later options.

Ability mechanics

Timewinder (Q) expands into a slowing, damaging field on hit, then rewinds back to Ekko for a second hit after a delay. Parallel Convergence (W) lets Ekko's attacks deal bonus damage to low-health enemies and can be cast to split the timeline, creating an anomaly that slows enemies; entering it himself grants a shield and stuns anyone caught inside. Chronobreak (R) makes him untargetable and rewinds him to a point a few seconds earlier, healing off damage taken since and hitting enemies near his return point.

Matchups

Hardest matchups by win rate: Sylas, Zed, Ahri, Katarina, Viktor. Best matchups: Syndra, Yasuo, Locke.
