Ekko vs Elise

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize efficient full clears to hit level 6 before Elise can snowball early ganks or invades.
Use (W) from fog to control river entrances and secure Scuttle vision before committing to fights.
Focus on scaling and objective control after level 6 to outpace Elise's early pressure and dive threat.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize clean clears and track Elise's early three-camp path to predict her ganks and counter-gank effectively.
Use (W) to zone and set up picks around dragon or Void Grubs when lanes have priority.
Invade Elise before her first reset only if you have lane priority and vision control to punish her weaker scaling.

Danger windows

Respect Elise's early level 3-4 gank threat with (E) stun and rappel; avoid isolated river fights before level 6.
Beware of forced smite fights around early dragon where Elise's burst and dive excel.
Avoid low-health clears or overextending without vision as Elise can punish with early invades or dives.

Early game

Start full clear or five-camp path to reach level 6 safely without early skirmishes.
Avoid early river fights unless nearby lanes have priority to support counter-ganks.
Contest first Scuttle only when you can arrive before Elise and have lane priority to back you up.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks your (Q)-(W)-(E) combo; use this to trade or force Elise off camps when cooldowns align.
Level 6 (R) gives you a strong reset and escape tool; use it to commit to or disengage from fights safely.
First completed AP item improves your burst and trade reliability; increase pressure on Elise post-item while tracking her cooldowns.

Win conditions

Convert clean full clears and level 6 power into counter-ganks and picks using (W) zoning and (R) resets.
Deny Elise early tempo by invading or contesting camps when lanes have priority, delaying her snowball.
Use scaling advantage to pressure side lanes and secure objectives after mid-game, leveraging your burst and mobility to reset fights.
