Renekton vs Ekko

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use early lane pressure and high fury trades to deny Ekko's scaling and roam potential.
Control the mid wave tempo to prevent Ekko from setting up his (W) stun or safe short trades.

Trading pattern

Use high fury to dash in with (E), land empowered (W) stun, follow with (Q), then exit with second (E) to avoid (W) setup.
Punish Ekko when his (W) is on cooldown or missed by forcing short trades with your burst pattern.
Avoid committing both (E) dashes forward unless you have a safe exit or are confident in an all-in.

Danger windows

Respect (W) stun zone setup; avoid trading when he can safely activate it.
Be cautious after using both (E) casts forward, as you lose mobility and become vulnerable to Ekko's burst.
Watch for Ekko's level 6 (R) to dodge your damage and reset fights; avoid low-health trades post-level 6 without your (R).

Early game

Push early waves to force Ekko under turret and limit his ability to trade with (Q) and (E).
Prioritize hitting level 3 quickly to unlock your full burst combo and punish Ekko's lower early agency.
Avoid extended trades without fury or second (E) cast ready to escape Ekko's counter-engage.

Power spikes

Level 3: Use full (Q)+(W)+(E) combo for strong burst trades before Ekko can reliably trade back.
Level 6: Activate (R) to gain durability and convert short trades into decisive all-ins or dives.
Respect Ekko's level 6 (R) as a reset and escape tool; avoid overcommitting when it is available.

Win conditions

Snowball early by stacking fury and winning short trades to deny Ekko safe scaling.
Use wave control to force Ekko under turret, then look for (R)-empowered all-ins or roams.
Convert early lane dominance into side-lane pressure or team skirmishes before Ekko completes key items.
