League of Legends: Eco Guide

One of the most popular characters in the League of Legends at the moment is Ecco. It’s hard to say how this is due, but it is regularly found in both rating and regular games. Today we will try to give you the most useful tips and compile a guide for Ecco, who plays various roles in matches.

Abilities

Let's start with the basics of the game League of Legends - Ecco. A guide for any of the roles is almost impossible to compose if the player does not know the basics and does not understand what kind of tactics are involved.

• Passive skill: Resonance. When dealing damage to an enemy with attacks or skills, a buff is imposed on them. Having accumulated four stacks, Ekko will cause additional damage and slow down the enemy. If a blow is struck against the champion, then the hero also accelerates.
• Q - "Temporary key." The champion throws a special device at the indicated location, which deals damage, and slows down all opponents in his path. After a certain period of time, it returns to the character and re-causes damage.
• W - "Parallel Convergence". It has two components. The passive part increases the damage of Ekko's basic attacks on enemies with health below 30%. When activated, it creates a field that explodes after 2 seconds and slows down enemies. If Ekko was inside at that moment, then he gets a shield, and opponents are stunned.
• E - "Phase Leap". Ekko flips in the indicated direction and charges his weapon with magical damage. Immediately after the jerk, the champion can make a second jump to the enemy champion in a small radius.
• R - "Time Management". Ekko is followed by his shadow, which repeats all his movements in the last 4 seconds. When activated, the champion is transferred to her position, restores health and deals huge damage (1.5 * AP) to all targets at the move point.

Thanks to the ultimatum ability of the guide on Ekko, it can turn out so versatile. The fact is that the increase in damage is incredibly high for a skill that strikes over an area, so with a successful implementation, an adversary can take enormous damage even from a champion assembled in a tank.

Talents (tank)

One of the positions where you can meet Ecco is the top. The guide you are reading is designed for several pumping options, since both tanks and magicians now use the top line. Why is this champion good as a "fat" character?

The first reason is his shield obtained from the third ability. Given the large increase in its strength from AP, this will allow even with small indicators of the strength of skills to get good protection.

The second reason is the ultimate skill (R). A breathtaking heal, tied to the amount of damage received from the enemy in the last 4 seconds. In other words, the more damage you receive, the more you restore when you activate a skill.

Now let's look at the talents that are needed if your eco-tank. The guide is designed for you to know exactly what you are doing, choosing this role. You need to start pumping from the Bravery branch.

• Regardless of what position you are in, take “Recovery” to regenerate your health.
• Then "Hard skin" to reduce damage from minions or forest monsters.
• After that, take the “Runic Armor”. It will increase not only the effectiveness of your skills, but also heal from cans of health.
• Since you will collect the appropriate items on the tank, then also “Insight” will come in handy.
• "Swiftness" will be needed to have time to fly into a crowd of enemies.
• The last skill is better to take the “Force of the Centuries”, because “Undead Grip” only works with 5 hits, and “Stone Ties” are unlikely to help save the teammates.

The remaining points can be spent in different ways, based on what position you play. After all, the best place to play for Eco is the forest. The guide is based on what the player will think before starting to “mine” a character.

• If you selected a top, then you can use the "Fury" branch. Rage, Feast, Talent, and Persecutor will be a good help for your character.
• For the Eco-Forester, it’s better to take the talents from Tricks. Ferocity, Runic Similarity, Merciless, and Dangerous Game.

Artifacts (tank)

Of course, it’s not enough to know how to properly pump a character, you still need to be able to pick up artifacts. Ecco is a character who is heavily dependent on health and strength of skills, so picking up a lot of armor is not worth it.

1. If you took this champion into the forest, then the hunter's Machete will be the first artifact, which will then upgrade to Stalker's Blade with the Echo enchantment.
2. Then you will definitely need protection boots. Look at the situation, if there is a strong adk against you, then take the “Ninja Tabi”. A lot of control or magic damage? Your choice is Mercury's Treads. Do not have time to run to the enemy? Try the Boots of Swiftness.
3. Zhonya's Hourglass will give not only the power of skills, but also armor. It will also save you in a critical situation if the opponents turn their attention to your person.
4. "Locket of the Iron Solari." Protection from magic, health and, of course, a shield for all allies.
5. Protective items should be selected based on the current situation. For example, to enhance magical protection, it is better to take the "Spirit Visage", which will also drip your skills. The Banshee's Veil blocks one directional skill, but will not save the enemy from focus.
6. To increase physical protection, it is better to choose the Randuin's Omen. In a crowd of opponents, you can slow them down and then stun them by throwing a “W” on top.
7. There are many items to increase damage. For example, "Rylai Scepter", which also gives health. But the Hextech Protobelt is much better, giving an additional breakthrough.

Talents (APK)

It is also worth mentioning separately the guide to Ekko (mid), acting as a caster. The decision is not the best, because he is forced to fit for a hand-to-hand fight. But a similar trend is observed in many players.

The focus of the Eco-Mage is on the Tricks talents. This is primarily due to the final skill at level 18.

• First we take Ferocity to finish off creeps.
• Then “Assassin” and “Merciless” to increase damage.
• "Dangerous game."
• "Accuracy".
• We conclude everything with the “Order of the Thunder Lord”.

The remaining points go to Fury. "Witchcraft", "Feast", "Persecutor" and "Talent" - all to increase instant damage.

Artifacts (APK)

The ideal option for the Eco-mage will be artifacts that give both the power of skills and health. These are the following items:

1. "The Torment of Liandry." It will also increase magic penetration and inflict additional damage, depending on the current health of the target.
2. Hextech Protobelt.
3. "Crystal scepter of Rilai."
4. "Rod of Ages." Increases its characteristics over time.

Total, we got enough of a "thick", but a cotton mage. To increase its protection, you can use various combinations of artifacts.

1. The Ninja Tabi will give physical protection, and the Banner of Power can be taken as the second item to increase magical resistance and ability skills.
2. Mercury's Treads will protect against spells, and Zhonya's Hourglass will protect against physical attacks.

Talents (Warrior)

In general, there is no such role. But some top-tier players are trying to put Ekko into auto-attacks. It’s a pretty controversial idea, because you will need to survive alongside the enemy for quite some time. Let's start the guide to Ekko with Fury:

• "Witchcraft".
• "Feast".
• "Inborn talent."
• "Persecutor".
• "Keen mind."
• "The heat of battle."

For better stability, use the "Courage":

• "Recovery."
• "Hard skin."
• Runic Armor
• "Insight".

Artifacts (Warrior)

However, the logical recommendations of the players end there, and instead of artifacts for defense, they begin to pump the power of skills:

• Sorcerer's Shoes for punching.
• "Rod of Ages."
• Thunderstorm Lich to enhance auto-attack after somersault.
• "Rabadon's Deathcap".
• Zhonya's Hourglass.
• "Crystal scepter of Rilai."
