Wukong vs Ekko

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Wukong thrives by reaching level 6 quickly to leverage his strong engage and teamfight disruption against Ekko's burst and mobility.
Prioritize controlled river vision and avoid early skirmishes before (R) to prevent getting outmaneuvered by Ekko's mobility and reset potential.

Jungle Plan

Path to prioritize lanes with strong follow-up for your (R) knockup to maximize gank threat and secure objectives.
Fight for river control and Scuttle Crab only when you have lane priority and can bait Ekko's cooldowns with your clone.
Use tempo resets after successful ganks to secure dragon or Rift Herald vision and deny Ekko safe farming.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 when Ekko can use (W) stun and (E) mobility to punish you.
Be cautious during low-health clears as Ekko's mobility and reset (R) can turn fights against you.
Respect (R) availability as it allows him to dodge your engage and reset skirmishes, increasing counter-gank risk.

Early game

Start with a full clear to hit level 6 safely without risking early counter-invades from Ekko's high mobility.
Contest first Scuttle Crab only if nearby lanes have priority and can follow up on your engage.
Avoid early river fights before level 6 as (W) stun setup and (E) mobility make him difficult to punish pre-spike.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks your (R) engage and teamfight disruption, turning skirmishes in your favor if timed before Ekko's ultimate.
Ekko's level 3 unlocks his (Q)-(W)-(E) combo; avoid giving him space to use it cleanly by tracking his cooldowns and pathing.
Ekko's first completed AP item increases his burst threat; prioritize objective control and vision to limit his roaming impact.

Win conditions

Convert level 6 engage into river and dragon fights by coordinating with lanes that can follow your (R) knockup.
Use your clone to bait Ekko's defensive cooldowns before committing to objective setups or counter-jungling.
Deny Ekko free farm and scaling by controlling vision and tempo around Rift Herald and dragon, forcing fights on your terms.
