About Ekko

Ekko is a mid-lane AP assassin built around bending time, and around the safety net that lets him dive more recklessly than almost anyone. Z-Drive Resonance, his passive, turns every third attack or spell on the same target into a bonus magic damage hit and grants a burst of speed when that target is a champion, so his damage arrives in staggered triple-hit beats instead of one smooth rotation.

His trading loop opens with Timewinder, a temporal grenade that blossoms into a slowing field when it strikes a champion, then snaps back to him and hurts enemies again on the way. Phase Dive is an evasive roll that charges his Z-Drive and sends him teleporting onto his target with his next attack. Paired with the warp, the roll gives him unexpected range for picking off stragglers. Parallel Convergence splits the timeline and drops a delayed anomaly that slows anyone caught inside, while his attacks shred low-health targets for extra damage. It works equally well to start a fight or to slip away from one.

The rewind button

Chronobreak is the ability that truly defines him: Ekko turns untargetable and jumps back to where he stood a few seconds earlier, recovering a share of the damage he absorbed during that window and dealing damage to enemies around his return point. It turns overcommitting into a comeback. Dive in, drain the enemy’s cooldowns, then blink back to safety with health restored.

Rated 8 out of 10 for difficulty, Ekko suits players who treat their own past position as a resource and thrive in fast, in-and-out skirmishes where one perfectly timed rewind can swing a losing fight.

Ekko Abilities

Every third attack or damaging spell on the same target deals bonus magic damage, and grants Ekko a burst of speed if the target is a champion.

Q

Timewinder

Ekko throws a temporal grenade that expands into a time-distortion field upon hitting an enemy champion, slowing and damaging anyone caught inside. After a delay, the grenade rewinds back to Ekko, dealing damage on its return.

Parallel Convergence

Ekko's basic attacks deal bonus magic damage to low health enemies. He can cast Parallel Convergence to split the timeline, creating an anomaly after a few seconds that slows enemies caught inside. If Ekko enters the anomaly, he gains shielding and stuns enemies by suspending them in time.

Cooldown: 22/20/18/16/14 Cost: 30/35/40/45/50 Range: 1600
E

Phase Dive

Ekko rolls evasively while charging up his Z-Drive. His next attack deals bonus damage and warps reality, teleporting him to his target.

Cooldown: 9/8.5/8/7.5/7 Cost: 40/45/50/55/60 Range: 325
R

Chronobreak

Ekko shatters his timeline, becoming untargetable and rewinding to a more favorable point in time. He returns to whenever he was a few seconds ago, and heals for a percentage of the damage received in that duration. Enemies near his arrival zone take massive damage.

Cooldown: 110/80/50 Cost: 100 Range: 850
