Ekko vs Hwei

Updated May 27, 2026

Overview

Ekko thrives on mobility and burst damage to outplay Hwei's poke.
Hwei relies on sustained ranged harassment and zone control.
The lane is about timing Ekko's engages around Hwei's cooldowns.

Trading pattern

Engage with Ekko's E to close distance quickly for burst trades.
Punish Hwei immediately after she uses her main poke abilities.
Disengage after landing W or R to avoid counterharass.
Short trades are favored; avoid prolonged fights where Hwei can kite.

Danger windows

Hwei's poke abilities off cooldown create high-risk zones for Ekko.
After Ekko uses E or R, he's vulnerable to counterattacks.
Enemy jungler ganks are more threatening when Ekko's mobility is down.
Post-level 6, Hwei may bait Ekko into overcommitting.

Early game

Start with cautious farming to avoid Hwei's poke from range.
Use Ekko's Q to farm safely and poke when Hwei steps up.
Position near your turret to reduce Hwei's zoning potential.
Avoid extended trades before level 3 when Ekko lacks full combo.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks Ekko's full combo for effective trades.
Level 6 ultimate provides strong all-in and escape potential.
First item powerspike (e.g., Hextech Rocketbelt) boosts burst and mobility.
Post-cooldown on Hwei's main poke spells creates windows to engage.

Win conditions

Use Ekko's mobility and burst to punish Hwei's cooldowns and force summoner spells.
Secure level 6 power spike to threaten lethal all-ins.
Roam post-lane to leverage Ekko's playmaking potential.
Control vision to avoid enemy jungle interference during aggressive plays.
