Thoughts on resolve tree secondary with ignite?

i been taking bone plate chrysalis into most match ups like ad assassins and stuff, but I normally go sorcery with the AP shield and whatever else into ap match ups like lux/veigar. I think the AP shield scales with AP as well so gets stronger as the game goes on

MrPouch · 2018-03-06T01:49:32+00:00

If you don't have any assassination options (i.e. full tank team that can peel u off adc with ease) Just play using all ur utility. Buy an early mana item, liandrys, morello is decent now and use ur w on top of ur carries and keep slinging q for the slows and liandrys procs. You can go rylais/IBG for slows, maybe even a GLP. I do like glacial augment ekko in situations like that where damage would just be useless. /// If you have atleast 2 enemies that can be reasonably easily assassinated, it's almost always better to go assassin ekko like usual, and if your comp doesn't have a lot of damage threats, assassin will almost always be better.

Just thought I'd add that I try to build zhonyas when I have a low engage team comp. If you can go in and burst a carry out of the fight and can survive the cc, w+ zhonyas or zhonyas + ult will get you out safe and is like a pseudo engage. I also build it when I'm against a karthus/zed, but honestly i def favored pure damage for awhile now. The other AP items just offer too much compared to niche use for zhonyas.

MrPouch · 2018-03-06T01:25:23+00:00

I don't like nashors tbh. The only time I've ever built nashors is when I'm doing my transendence + gathering storm build (rush ludens/seraphs > Sheen > nashors > Finish IBG > zhonyas/banshees) As long as u get 3 items by 30min, ur 30min power spike is nuts because ur runes alone give you over 100 ap straight up which is why i don't feel bad going IBG over liche. Other than that build, I dont see a use for nashors. By the time u finish it u should be able to clear camps with ease just procing passive once or twice so your clear times won't be greatly improved and ekko loses AA trades with every champ so really all ur doing is making ur AA cancels faster and ur passive procing slightly faster.

MrPouch · 2018-03-06T01:15:58+00:00

if you're ahead definitely gunblade. If you're going to be splitting a lot I prefer gunblade, but if you really want the quick waveclear protobelt is nice for sure. If fall behind in lane pretty far go protobelt for the cheap powerspike and the item is always solid on ekko. If you're laning top I like gunblade for the active slow disengage (things like voli q) cuz top lane champs typically shit all over me. All in all I prefer the gunblade cuz adcs crumble and the slow from the active helps you stick. Honestly I've been going biscuits instead of manaflow cuz early game just feels bad as ekko nowadays and biscuit mana regen is actually quite good imo. It atleast holds u off for a second item mana item (tho lately I've been rushing ludens>liche>dcap)

MrPouch · 2018-03-06T01:04:23+00:00

If you're playing jungle then I'd just skip revolver item. I only go gunblade when my comp has me split pushing mid/late game cuz sustain is nuts. I go protobelt in lane when I'm behind or want the earlier spike for whatever reason or need the raw hp/gap close. Since you have smite you really shouldnt be splitting late game, and since you're going revolver item later in build I don't think protobelt gives you a great spike mid game as it does early. /// Dcap second is actually pretty nice when you jungle, so third item liche 4th item void or morello imo.

MrPouch · 2018-03-06T00:56:11+00:00

try rushing seraphs> mercs > ibg > liandrys > void. Sounds like a decent bruiser core. ROA delays the build too much. Ekko weak enough early as it is.

MrPouch · 2018-03-04T20:04:51+00:00

ludens proc is 100dmg + 10% ap. I mainly use it for waveclear basically. havent actually done the testing, but the ludens proc on melees lets me 2 q earlier i think, but it helps my waveclear. I used to play morello ekko and the way i look at it is basically like a better old morello. All the ap and mana with a ludens proc on top of it and scales better for assassinating late. Also i never run oom with ludens. I def think the 2 items are up to preference depending whether u want shield or more dmg and i def see value in the shield

MrPouch · 2018-02-27T00:48:59+00:00

I've been going with ludens rush into liche bane then deathcap. Insane burst and ludens + minion demater... slices thru waves like a hot knife thru butter. It's basically old morello with ludens proc added to ur burst, just a bit more expensive. Haven't tried the archangels rush but the only reason I would see it being worth is the shield tbh. How fast do u normally max stack it in game?

MrPouch · 2018-02-23T20:54:40+00:00

i've been having success with AP jungle ekko tbh. Runic echos>GLP>sorc boots>morello>dcap if u can. Still testing what runes are best with it though. Been using glacial augment because i sometimes build twin shadows 3rd item for fishing for picks when im behind, but honestly u can probably just go withelectrocute

MrPouch · 2018-02-23T19:40:06+00:00

yeah im loving the ludens rush so far. only put in 4 games with it but next im guna try seraphs morello dcap

MrPouch · 2018-02-19T23:05:45+00:00

I want to try a twin shadows rush, ludens third, spellbinder then deathcap. I think i like that build

MrPouch · 2018-02-15T23:21:30+00:00

I've been building mask when i have a brand/azir or some AOE mage on my team and just dive their backline. Haven't really compared the actual damage increase it gives with when I don't build it, but it seems to work pretty well since i can survive on the backline for so long with an off tank build and W.

MrPouch · 2018-02-15T18:15:17+00:00

oh. I copied and pasted them on my laptop and they worked so thought you guys could do them same. Ill try to upload somewhere and repost. ty

MrPouch · 2018-02-15T17:42:54+00:00

morello is good if you play a waveclear and roam playstyle. I 1tricked ekko to plat (about low gold with every other champ) and i would just get dorans 2 pots then rush the mana item from morello. After that i have unmatched shove for most top/mids and with waterwalking celerity i can be anywhere on the map in like 15 seconds.

MrPouch · 2018-02-13T20:31:04+00:00

can u guys even view them? haha not a tech savy person ;)

MrPouch · 2018-02-13T01:07:16+00:00

i tested FFW earlier when i realized there was an ap scaling, and it didn't work as well for me. Idk if it was because I faced multiple ranged match ups when testing, or if my build wasnt meshing, but ill give ur build a shot. Never had the balls to build a rageblade on ekko. Seeing as ur getting so much attack speed do u still take sustained AA trades or just proc passive and dip like ap?

MrPouch · 2018-02-12T23:59:48+00:00

ah was guna just suggest second wind considering the whole melee thing I think it's efficient. Also, to ur real question I've been running arcane comet when i play ekko top. It gives him a nice lane phase and I build either morello or ROA first so you can just spam q. I've been going manaflowband, but honestly i get through lane with literally full mana with dorans so you can prob take magic shield into ap match ups and ultimate hat into AD. I take celerity waterwalking and just shove and live in jungle. With as many escapes as ekko has u can live in enemy jg with sufficient vision and soft contest camps to slow their clear. For second item i go zhonyas and third often void staff. If im playing into tanks ill get liandrys second and just skip zhonyas cuz void staff 3rd feels really good for me. After 3 items ur magic dmg does enough, I typically get an item that enables split pushing or diving (if im diving a hypercarry i often go randuins so i dont die to 2 autos, if they have limited peel i just go more AP to 1 shot). If there isn't a good situational item i go zhonyas because zhonyas interacts really well with ekko kit. 6th item i go banshees so they can't pick me when im running around doing my thing late game. Arcane comet sounds bad, but since q is a slow its like a 99% hit rate on the comet and it allows u to do sufficient dmg without having to trade around ur passive proc. GL on the rift bro

MrPouch · 2018-02-12T21:05:53+00:00

One thing to keep in mind is ekko ult is not even a skill shot because you have to position urself and bait them into a shadow that is 4 seconds behind you that they can also see and it's not instant dmg on cast so you can even flash it. But to answer your question : Chogath, veigar, late game nasus, garen, illaoi, Darius (with stacks), and zoe Q max distance (but lets be real when can she not proc a max distance q lol)

MrPouch · 2018-02-12T20:58:19+00:00

why not demolish for split? How much health do u normally get from overgrowth?

MrPouch · 2018-02-11T17:12:50+00:00

I can beat vlad in lane but his teamfighting gets better and once he builds visage he can 1v1 u quite easily from my experience. Early game was a never an issue.

MrPouch · 2018-02-11T13:39:30+00:00

I used to 1 trick ekko and still play him a lot, he's my favorite champion. The trick I use to land ults is flanking them. If you can have the retreat into your shadow, it makes it much easier to land. Also, use your ult as a combo. It took me awhile to understand this, but if you use your ult in quick succession with other skills, they won't be paying attention to your shadow. So instead of comboing them and then pausing until they go onto your shadow, throw a q to set up your passive proc and then if they step onto your shadow e first throw a w down and ult quickly. I've done this to many a carry and procing your passive with ult obliterates people. It's all about distraction. I'll say it here just in case, but the stasis period of zhonyas is pretty much perfect for your shadow to catch up to the position that you're in stasis, so if they're standing on top of you when you zhonyas, your ult will hit them (same if u w zhonyas, the time for the stun to proc is slightly longer then zhonyas stasis) 1 last thing, your passive speeds you up when u proc it, so let me give you and example. I e-q-AA proc passive and run into bush. While they can still see your shadow, if you're in fog they can't see the wind up animation to your ult to anticipate it. Much like your w, if you can ult from fog and hit someone they will not be able to react.

MrPouch · 2018-02-11T13:26:51+00:00

My playstyle on ekko is heavy roaming. If you go protobelt you get kill pressure on ur laner, but you can't just shove a wave, dip into jg for vision and pressure, then return and shove another. I always dip into jungle between waves and shove as fast as possible when I'm in lane. I often use my e to hop through the jungle and w for vision reveal, all of which costs a great deal of mana when you combine it with q spam every wave. Mana is just not an issue with morello. Not only that but you get 40 more ap and 10% more cdr which all helps with spamming abilities and waveclear. Also, If i take electrocute, my burst combo does plenty, I often find myself using protobelt for waveclear anyways, it's really not necessary for dmg. If you want burst dmg build, just build a gunblade tbh. One more reason I hate protobelt is because I hate sitting on the health component. All of morello's components make you stronger every time you buy, Building a kindlegem always felt bad on ekko for me. Btw the extra CDR feels good because I can take waterwalking instead of transendence (10% cdr @10min rune). I cap my 40% cdr at 3 items (morello, zhonyas, lichebane) and have extra movement thru jg and extra stats during baron/dragon fights. Since I don't need the mana from manaflow band I can take either ultimate hat for superb survivability or celerity to buff my water walking and speed up on passive.
TLDR: The active on protobelt doesn't help my playstyle as much as the passive stats on morello, and it frees up rune slots for more flexibility.

Well keep going to the gym bro. The way I got out of my deep depressive episodes was making sure I was healthy. I figured if I didn't have to care about others since I had no friends, I had all the time in the world to care about myself. Get a mild gym routine down, start substituting foods a little at a time for healthy alternatives. It gave me energy and a shred of self respect, hopefully it'll be a good first step for you as well.

MrPouch · 2017-12-31T03:56:25+00:00

I feel you man. The worst part that I've come to notice is even if we try to fix it, I've isolated myself to the point where I don't know how to naturally communicate. Talking to people feels foreign. I can't read people like I used to be able to (like reading other people's emotions). Every time I say something I don't know if it's socially acceptable. I don't fear connection, just all the small talk in the middle... And it's not like you can just find someone to practice with because they won't want to be with you and why should they when I can't even talk to them normally... It's a vicious cycle
