Vex vs Ekko

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Vex is a high agency anti-dash burst mage who must use her passive fear to control Ekko's mobility and pressure the lane.
Pressure Ekko early to deny his scaling and prevent him from setting up his W stun or safe all-ins.

Trading pattern

Use passive fear to initiate trades and proc electrocute for burst damage.
Punish Ekko when he misses Ekko Q or fails to land Ekko W setup by trading aggressively.
Avoid trading when your R is down as you lose reset and mobility, making you vulnerable to Ekko's burst.

Danger windows

Beware of Ekko's Ekko W stun setup; keep track of its activation delay to avoid getting caught.
Avoid all-ins when your fear passive is on cooldown as you lose your main control tool.
Be cautious when your R is down, as you lack mobility and reset potential against Ekko's burst.

Early game

Use passive fear and Q to poke and punish Ekko's attempts to engage with Ekko E or miss Ekko Q.
Avoid extended trades if your fear is down to prevent Ekko from all-inning you.
Maintain lane pressure to keep Ekko from freely farming and setting up his W stun.

Power spikes

Vex's major spikes: Level 6 R for engage and reset, and first completed AP burst item.
Respect Ekko's level 3 unlock of Q-W-E combo with Ekko E mobility and Ekko W stun threat.
Respect Ekko's level 6 R for safety, burst, and fight resets.

Win conditions

Win lane by consistently landing your passive fear to control Ekko's dash and burst trades.
Punish Ekko's missed Ekko Q or Ekko W setup with aggressive trades to deny his scaling.
Use your R to engage or reset fights, maintaining pressure and preventing Ekko from safely farming or all-inning.

Tip: For Vex vs Ekko, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
