Ekko vs Amumu

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Ekko's faster clear and high mobility to avoid early river fights and contest Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority.
Prioritize farming toward level 6 while covering lanes that can set up your (W) for ganks or picks.
Focus on snowballing through picks and side-lane pressure rather than forcing early duels with Amumu's tank frontline.

Jungle Plan

Path for efficient clears and prioritize Scuttle control only when lane priority allows you to contest safely.
Invade Amumu early only if your lanes can follow and you can punish his slower clear and low early dueling.
Track Amumu's first gank attempts and be ready to counter-gank with your mobility and (R) safety.

Danger windows

Respect Amumu's (Q) long-range engage and (R) area lockdown during grouped objective fights; avoid isolated river skirmishes without vision.
Avoid low-health clears where Amumu can punish with his crowd control and tankiness.
Be cautious contesting early Scuttle or invading when your lanes lack priority, as Amumu can punish with counter-ganks.

Early game

Start with a full clear or a five-camp clear into a lane with strong setup to maximize your level 3 combo power.
Avoid early river fights unless your lanes can move first to contest Scuttle or invade safely.
Use fogged (W) before dragon or Void Grubs to control entrances and deny Amumu vision for his engages.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks your (Q)-(W)-(E) combo, giving you strong burst and stun setup for early skirmishes; use this to pressure camps and lanes.
Level 6 (R) is a major safety and burst reset; use it to commit to picks or escape Amumu's engages.
First completed AP burst item increases your damage and trade reliability; push tempo and force Amumu off camps or objectives.

Win conditions

Convert your faster clears and mobility into counter-jungling to deny Amumu farm and delay his tank scaling.
Use well-timed (W) stuns from fog or side angles to set up picks and snowball lanes.
Prioritize early dragon and Rift Herald control with vision denial to force Amumu into unfavorable grouped fights you can avoid or reset with (R).
