| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ziggs | You dominate level 1 with ranged Q versus his melee kit. |
| Level 2 | Ziggs | Level 2 you keep chunking him as his Q out-ranges nothing of yours. |
| Level 3 | Ziggs | At 3 your full kit zones him off CS and denies the all-in. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 hinge on your spacing and holding Satchel for his dash. |
| Level 6 | Ziggs | At 6 your Satchel disengage neutralizes his Chronobreak reset all-in. |
| First item | Ziggs | First-item you shove and poke while he needs a full combo to threaten you. |
| Two+ items | Ziggs | With 2+ items your siege range and minefield keep him from diving freely. |
Levels 1-3 are yours: Ekko is a melee assassin whose only ranged tool is a short Q, so open with Bouncing Bomb pokes and Short Fuse autos every time he walks up while your range lead is largest.
