He can even wrangle a couple of defensive uses out of Parallel Convergence, like triggering the ability's explosion just so he can shield himself from otherwise lethal damage, or casting the ability directly on himself as enemy junglers come in to gank. Once his opponents see potential power of the ability, Ekko can get psychological, using his Parallel Convergence casts to zone his enemies away from last hitting or force them towards an approaching jungler.

Even if his target avoids the crowd control, they'll still have a hard time successfully trading thanks to Parallel Convergence's shield. Accurate Parallel Convergence casts - especially used against enemies slowed by Timewinder - give him great trading windows: landing it on his lane opponent gives Ekko the chance to phase in and trigger Parallel Convergence's stun for a couple of free attacks. And, after diving on top of his opponent and triggering his passive, Ekko can simply run out, making the most of his speed boost as he heads to safety.Įkko's role as a solo lane skirmisher becomes increasingly apparent as he starts leveling up and unlocking his full repertoire of abilities. Smart positioning should gift Ekko with a perfect window to hustle in with Phase Dive's blink and pressure his target with mounting Z-Drive Resonance stacks. Aside from farming, Ekko's Timewinder also provides poke against his lane opponent, particularly when he Phase Dives, repositioning himself to strike his target with both rounds of Timewinder. Its decent range and sheer size makes it a powerful zoning and passive generation tool, although if Ekko isn't judicious with his casts, he'll quickly run both out of mana and into trouble. Ekko's early game revolves around his ability to create windows of opportunity with Timewinder.
