Zoe vs Ekko

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Zoe is a poke mage with high early agency and lane pressure aiming to control the lane by landing E for burst combos.
Pressure Ekko early to deny his scaling and avoid letting him set up short trades with his W stun.

Trading pattern

Start trades by landing E to set up Q and R extended poke for burst.
Punish Ekko if he misses Ekko Q or W, as his short trades rely on these hitting.
Respect Ekko W delay and avoid extended trades when his stun is ready.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Ekko's W is active as his stun can turn trades.
Avoid overcommitting if you miss E or use R poorly, as Ekko can punish with his burst and mobility.
Respect Ekko's level 6 R as it can negate your damage and reset fights.

Early game

Use early levels to fish for E and punish Ekko before level 6 when his all-in threat is lower.
Keep Ekko at range to avoid his E engage and W stun setup.
Avoid missing E as it leaves you vulnerable to Ekko's burst and mobility.

Power spikes

Zoe's level 6 R unlocks extended poke angles and burst potential.
First completed AP item significantly boosts Zoe's kill pressure.
Respect Ekko's level 3 Q-W-E combo for his short burst trades and level 6 R for safety and resets.

Win conditions

Win lane by landing E to control trades and using R+Q for safe, long-range burst.
Deny Ekko's scaling by pressuring him before level 6 and punishing missed abilities.
Use W to gain summoner spells or item actives that enhance your poke and survivability.

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