Ekko vs Tristana

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use short (Q)+(E) bursts to trade and back off before Tristana can retaliate.
Avoid extended fights pre-6; rely on (W) stun setup for safer all-ins.
Deny Tristana wave control to limit her turret plate pressure and reset potential.

Trading pattern

Trade quickly with (Q)+(E) combos, then use passive movement speed to disengage.
Only commit (W) when confident in landing the stun to avoid counter-trades.
Punish (W) if she jumps forward without support or reset available.

Danger windows

Respect Tristana's level 2 all-in with support follow-up; avoid extended trades.
Beware (W) jump resets after kills; punish if she uses (W) aggressively without reset.
Avoid trades when (R) knockback is ready to interrupt your engage or escape.

Early game

Hold wave near mid to punish Tristana's unsafe jumps without support follow-up.
Delay level 3 all-in attempts by zoning before she stacks (E).
Watch for jungle pressure as Tristana's passive push can expose her to ganks.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks full (Q)+(W)+(E) combo; use this to threaten burst trades.
Level 6 (R) grants safety and all-in reset; track availability for aggressive plays.
First AP item completion strengthens burst and wave control; increase pressure then.

Win conditions

Use (W) stun to lock Tristana during roams or skirmishes for picks.
Crash waves post-item spike to deny plates and force Tristana off lane.
Leverage (R) to dodge key damage and reset fights, enabling side-lane pressure or roams.

Tip: For Ekko vs Tristana, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
