A different course's gear be nay relabelled as true to course. Role income, sea chart access and starting rules can change th' whole purchase order.

Coordinate th' Bot pair

Inspect which defensive spell th' Bot partner picked afore duplicating Heal, Barrier or Exhaust.

Clash th' course threat

Exhaust answers a committed damage dealer; Ignite adds pressure and anti-heal; Heal protects both nigh th' ship partners.

Arrr, static alternatives

Compare th' problem afore changing th' course

These choices be nay picked from live scores. Use one only after ye identify th' stated clash problem yourself.

Arrr, Only when enemy healing is deciding fights

Oblivion Orb

Arrr, Oblivion Orb supplies healing reduction without committing to a completed Morellonomicon. Skip both when healing is not the problem or an ally already covers your target reliably. Healing reduction does not reduce shields.

Arrr, Conditional component, not a core item. Complete Morellonomicon only when its stats and slot efficiency justify delaying another purchase.

Arrr, Situational AP purchase

Arrr, When should you buy anti-heal?

Arrr, Buy healing reduction when enemy healing or regeneration is deciding fights and you can keep damaging the relevant target. Grievous Wounds reduces healing; it does not reduce shields, magic damage or crowd control.

Arrr, Start with the component

Arrr, Oblivion Orb can provide healing reduction without immediately paying for a completed Morellonomicon. Fit the component around your core damage, mana and survival needs; check the current queue's item tooltip.

Arrr, Finish when it fits the fight

Arrr, Complete Morellonomicon when its stats and slot efficiency suit your build. Do not treat it as a mandatory first item just because your champion deals magic damage.

Arrr, Coordinate coverage

Arrr, Multiple Grievous Wounds sources do not add their percentages together. Another reliable applier may cover the same target, but you may still need your own source for a separate fight or target.

Arrr, Repeated spell damage and damage over time can maintain coverage more reliably than a single hit. Match the purchase to your actual spell access, enemy sustain and the teammates who can apply the debuff.

Arrr, Will the fight last long enough?

Arrr, If you die before dealing damage, you apply no healing reduction. If your target dies before healing, there is little healing to prevent. The debuff applies on qualifying damage immediately; it does not need to build up. It remains briefly after your last hit, so teammates can benefit even after you disengage.

Arrr, Only healing during the active debuff counts. For example, 40% reduction prevents 80 of a 200-point heal, or 400 of a 1,000-point heal, before other modifiers. Compare that with the damage, penetration or survival you delayed; neither example guarantees a kill. Healing after the debuff expires is unaffected.

Arrr, See the Arrr, oblivion Orb and Arrr, Morellonomicon Arrr, references for current effects and queue availability. These are situational decisions, not a measured best-build claim.

Tricks Data Dragon 16.20.1Cooldown / Cost / Range Data Dragon 16.20.1
P
Passive

Z-Drive Resonance

Arrr, what it doesEnglishEvery 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.

Arrr, practical readZ-Drive Resonance be an automatic part o' th' kit involving damage. Track when its condition be active instead o' treating every fight th' same way.

Q
Q trick

Timewinder

Arrr, what it doesEnglishEkko 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.

Arrr, practical readTimewinder be a ranged cast involving a slowing effect and damage. Respect its line or target area, and avoid spending it when th' foe can simply step astern afore th' fit fer th' captain's eye exchange.

Parallel Convergence

Arrr, what it doesEnglishEkko'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.

Arrr, practical readParallel Convergence contributes a slowing effect and damage. Its value changes wit' cooldown, range and target access; recognise th' setup afore moving into its effective area.

Chronobreak

Adapt th' course

What to do when th' battle changes

Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.

Even course

Balance course pressure wit' protection fer th' carry

1
Course

Hold th' trick that makes foes respect yer course and trade when both Bot-course partners be shipshape.

2
Sea chart play

Recall and move on seaworthy wave timings; an unsupported roam can cost th' carry an entire wave or a dive.

3
Fights

Control one approach and keep enough protection fer th' foe's most likely engage.

Pings, movement and prizes

Ekko Support sea chart course

Turn ship's intelligence into a shared decision. Move wit' an ally and preserve th' tool that makes th' next aboard fight seaworthy.

Ahead

Make th' lead open th' sea chart

Ping
Use On Me Way afore changing angle, then Assist Me on Dragon after Bot be seaworthy to move. Use Peril if th' carry starts following through an unsafe course.
Sea chart movement
Roam after a pushed wave, shared recall or when th' carry can collect safely. Deep wards still require th' Jungler or another nigh th' ship ally.
Prize
Arrive early, clear th' deck th' foe entrance and hold th' key engage or peel spell. Do nay chase astern from Dragon and hand th' foe a free course back aboard in.
Even

Create one clear th' deck numbers advantage

Ping
Use On Me Way afore an engage or roam, Foe Lost overboard as soon as a course foe disappears, and Peril when yer carry cannae follow.
Sea chart movement
Leave only on a seaworthy wave or recall timing. If th' carry would meet defeat a full wave or face a dive, stay Bot and communicate that ye be nay moving.
Prize
Lend a hand Bot finish th' wave, then enter river wit' th' Jungler. Set vision afore starting and avoid turning an even prize into an unseen gamble.
Behind

Stop th' next aboard defeat afore seeking a play

Ping
Use Retreat or Peril afore an ally enters darkness, Foe Lost overboard immediately, and Assist Me when ye need company to restore defensive vision.
Sea chart movement
Do nay abandon a crashing wave or vulnerable carry. Move after th' wave be stable and use th' nearest seaworthy ward line rather than forcing deep vision.
Prize
If yer crew cannae enter river safely, ping Retreat and trade fer farm, vision or another sea chart resource. Contest only after creating a seaworthy course together.
Prize setup

Arrr, four calls, in order

Pings create a shared course; they do nay replace checking waves, vision and who can move.

  1. 1
    Afore th' move

    'Round a minute afore Dragon, ping th' course, spend doubloons if needed and make sure Bot and Mid know whether they can move.

  2. 2
    Arrr, enter together

    Walk wit' th' Jungler or another ally. Sweep one course, place useful entrance vision and ne'er face-inspect alone.

  3. 3
    Afore starting

    Inspect nigh th' ship waves and foe positions. Hold th' spell that either starts a reachable fight or protects yer main damage dealer.

  4. 4
    During th' contest

    Keep enemies astern from th' seaworthy entrance, mark th' reachable threat and avoid chasing so far across th' waters that Dragon be left unprotected.

Later prizes: Use th' same pattern fer Rift Herald or Baron: communicate first aboard, move through controlled vision wit' an ally, then choose engage or peel afore th' fight begins.
