Am tired of this complain :"I lost my lane because i was up against an Ekko "
Am tired of this complain of players blaming a single Ekko for their lost of their game or lane saying his OP. Ok getting the facts right i know his kit is a bit overloaded but have you guys taking a consideration of how to counter him or lane against him ?!!!! , Today i decided to lane mid with yasuo and my opponent was an Ekko. To cut it short, i won my lane against him and notice something very interesting that the key to counter Ekko is to :
-
Dodge his Q(time rewinding) as much as possible also if you unfortunately got hit by his Q , make sure u avoid its return effect, dont be stupid, dont allow it to stack twice. Since i was playing yasuo i was only not able to dodge his q but also block it cast and return effect.During my laning phase against him i only got hit by his q 3 times.

whenever you see ekko cast his hologram, just know that his about to cast his W, be ready to move dont just stand their like an idiot and get stunned for 2.25 sec blaming the invisibility of his ability, 3 secs is enough for you to decide and its the mid lane , the lane is short you can run much faster to safety.During my laning phase against him i only got stunned once and that was because i was focused on him during a duel, but still he couldnt do shit i was far ahead of him.

lastly stay clear of his chronobreak, yes that ghostly clone of his !!! , most ekko players would want to create a trap zone paradox, that is they would want to use their past 4 secs to create a pattern in which it would just create a trap where the enemy might be in the next 4 secs and this is what most Ekko players do during team fights, they are always trying to place their clone in your mist. In team fight make sure your team spread out so that not everyone gets nuked once .If he manage to chronobreak during teamfight , focus him and kill him, his squishy , ekko is most vulnerable without his ult.
