Evelynn top with conqueror goes hard

[@meechow153]

The picks have been great and I loved the J4 game. It was BIG.

[@Lluna.cg.]

Sam, I've been trying to make tank Ekko work, and I think I've found a way in case you want to try. You go: Grasp Demolish/shield bash (matchup dependant) Second wind/bone plating (matchup dependant) Revitalize/Overgrowth (I think revitalize is way more worth it) As for secondary, I really like approach velocity with cookies, but something like gathering storm helps you later one shotting the caster minions with your Q. It's a full sustain build. You go TP and ignite, and you rush: Riftmaker Fimblewinter (you proc it with Q) Unending despair Spirit Visage Skip Sheen, it's not needed with Riftmaker. You do quite a lot of damage and you're unkillable. You have early kill threat and you become a monster mid to late game.

okay bet TYTY

[@michealbender7438]

Wait, first Pekin does an Ekko vid, then Quantum does one. Now the Lo does one? The holy trinity is one the same page. And its glorious.

[@powerfixation]

vi did get a buff! 4% more shield on her passive

[@snakeinabox7220]

Ekko is fun , till the enemy picks any champ that can rush Mr , and then you stop being able to do dmg . its a good counter pick tho .

[@Lourlo]

Yea I think I dodged a game prior where they picked ksante I was panic mode lol

[@snakeinabox7220]

@Lourlo last time I played ekko vs ksante. I vowed to not do it again 1mr item out of 3 total item ksante. Vs 3 item(hale of blades, nashors, litch bane, rab) ekko + threash. It took, no joke Over a minute to kill him. And that was with me perma spaming shot on cd.

[@jeanchriss4162]

[@davidleone6509]

LOURLO I HAVENT WATCHED YET BUT PLAY MORE EKKO

[@jefflevy606]

at 17:06 silly got baited by lo saying he was gonna get sorcs, but he got sheen lol

[@OokilliesTV]

I started league in S6 and Ekko was the first champ i saved up currency for and bought. Playing tank ekko was freelo for a new player xD

[@eebbaa5560]

man this lowkey makes me wish ekko was reworked to be a proper skirmisher instead of an assassin. if he had similar ratios to gwen or sylas he’d feel a lot better to play imo. ekko’s low base damage and high ap ratios mean that it takes forever for him to spike, especially compared to other assassins, and even when he’s fed he struggles to do meaningful damage to most champions. his early/midgame and oneshot potential is lacking, but he doesn’t gain anything from extended fights either because he doesn’t have the sustain to properly utilize his passive movement speed in teamfights. and no, bruiser does not equal tank. i’ve been playing ekko since release and he’s by far my most-played champion, so i was there for tank ekko. i’m not saying that riot should let him build pure tank items; i just think that there’s a middle ground that would make ekko a better skirmisher instead of a below-average assassin. as an aside, ekko’s pick rate is so low now that he doesn’t even show up in the league client as a mid laner anymore. anyway, ekko top is still a really cool pick, especially for lourlo

[@lewiswilson4083]

This is exactly why I’ve developed my Skirmisher Ekko build: Liandries- health + tick damage between passive procs Sorc shoes - extra damage to get ahead early Nashors - Attack speed to proc passive fast (before they dash or blink) Warmog’s - Enough health to survive jumping in and running out without ulting every time + HEALING to rinse and repeat Void staff - Allows ur passive + liandries to do SOME damage to bruisers Beserker’s Greaves - consider swapping from sorc shoes for extra attack speed (to proc passive instantly) Rabadons - More damage Core Runes- 1. Phase Rush - horrible early, but slow resist ensures you escape after procing passive mid to late (rinse and repeat every 10s late game) 2.Alacrity + attk speed shard - helps proc passive instantly 3. 2 Scaling Health Shards - allows for warmog’s passive to activate My reasoning is, even when I build full ap ekko, unless i’m 10/0 with a level lead, I can’t truly one shot a squishy, so I 😂typically have to ult instantly after I go in and fail to one shot, making me useless for the rest of the fight unless I suicide. And don’t even get me started on how useless you are if enemy squishies build 1 mr or health ifem). With this build, you’re not trying to one shot, so you don’t. But at full build, you still end up doing 50-60% of a squishies health bar (depending on ur score) and then you go back in for more every 10 seconds or so. Alternatively, after proccing passive, you can run past the enemy, or towards your clone. If you launch your w where your clone will be, the shield + health from items will allow u to survive after ulting on top of them. Successfully doing this allows u to kill any squishy, and even some bruisers (with a few w passive autos at the end). As we know, what I just described is ekko’s wet dream (especially if you land ur ult and stun on multiple people) which you get more chances to set up using the skirmisher build. The main negatives are: 1. You do negative damage early game (low burst damage mid game too tbh, but you’ll be bulky by then to survive multiple passive procs). Because of this, you NEED to go jg, and even then, ganks will very much depend on u landing ur stun 2. The extra attack speed isn’t used as much as it should be. You only use it to proc passive instantly, then get out (2 auto attacks), which lowers its value, but the instant passive proc is VITAL. An alternative would be Protobelt (but that’s only once every 40 seconds) or titanic hydra (still experimenting) for the attack reset.
