Blaming the Star Guardians for abandoning her to die, she has taken a bitter, personal stand against them, even as doubts begin to creep in.īeing bad was fun while it lasted. The pair were then resurrected and turned against their allies - a change Xayah seems almost happy about. Many years ago, Xayah was destroyed in the fight against Zoe, alongside her lover Rakan. A guardian once more, Rakan can now enjoy a welcome respite and perhaps a dance or two with Xayah. Plus, making evil plans is not really his style. The darkness never suited Rakan ― the First Star's light complements the glossy shine of his hair more than any chaos magic could. though the price may be losing himself to evil forever. Biding his time to strike, he has a plan to purify the darkness from Xayah's heart. The pair were then resurrected and turned against their allies - a fact Rakan seems keenly aware of. These Items give you an insane powerspike and allow you to deal a crazy amount of damage early on.įollowed by that you want to pick up a Void Staff, so you deal nearly true damage on squishy targets and to handle enemies who already start building magic resist.Many years ago, Rakan was destroyed in the fight against Zoe, alongside his lover Xayah.

The Core Items we want to get are Hextech Rocketbelt and Nashor's Tooth. If you want and have enough Gold you can pick up another Amplifying Tome and/or Boots to move a little faster. This item gives you a nice amount of AP + the passive which makes your trades even better and it's also the first part for Hextech Rocketbelt. On your First Back you'd like to pick up an early Hextech Alternator. This has two downsides though, first of it being that you can run out of mana really fast, because this item will not give mana back in any way and the second one is, of course, that you can lose these stacks. You should choose this when you have a good matchup that you know you will most likely dominate, like Aurelion Sol, because when fully stacked, this item will give you 40 AP in total. Your second alternative is the Dark Seal+ Refillable Potion start. The only downside is that you won't have much AP for the first few levels. Not only you have 3 charges, each restoring 125 health and 75 mana, but you also have the passive that's dealing a little bit of magic damage when damaging your laner. The extra healths gives you more survivability for all-in's and the mana-regen helps for early mana problems for the huge Timewinder mana costs.Īlternative Starters are Corrupting Potion and Dark Seal.Ĭorrupting Potion is the way to go when you lane against range poke champions (like Ziggs). Normal Starters on Ekko are Doran's Ring and two Health Potions. You can also choose the 10% attack speed shard for bigger synergy with Nashor's Tooth.Īdditionally, if you feel like you will have a hard time laning against a certain champion, you may wanna choose two armor/magic resist shards. If you did not pick up the Transcendence rune, the ability haste shard can also make up for that, as it also gives 8 ability haste in total. As for defense, pick up either a magic resist or armor shard, depending on what you play against. Generally, you should pick the first two adaptive force shards for more ability power, which helps in the early stages in the game. Weaker laning phase, stronger assasination potential in late game. I choose this rune if im going for a little tankier build (like Abyssal Mask) and want to make up for the AP im giving up.ĭark Harvest: This rune needs its time to be noticable, but once you have enough stacks, it adds a lot of instant burst to your kit. Gathering Storm: Gives you extra AP based on the games length.

The second Rune you should use is Transcendence because not only does this give you free ability haste which is really important, but also reduces remaining basic ability cooldown by 20% after scoring a takedown which is really useful in teamfights. The extra man also really helps in early game to trade more often. This is vital since Ekko's abilities are mana hungry and this build gives you no mana.


Manaflow Band gives you mana and mana regeneration. I choose Ultimate Hunter, because this rune gives you extra cooldown reduction on your ultimate which allows you to play more risky more often. Since Zombie Ward got changed, it is simply a better option, since you need a Control Ward to make us of its effect and you are more quick at getting the AP from champion kills rather than wards. Very good rune on squishy targets.Įyeball Collection gives you more ability power for each takedown you get. Sudden Impact offers you more magic Penetration after you use your Phase Dive on a enemy champion. Electrocute is your go-to Keystone rune as it adds burst and damage to trades and fights!
