Ekko and Zed have fundamentally different gameplay patterns. Zed's goal is to kill one person as fast as humanly possible, wheras Ekko mostly just wants to weave in and out of teamfights slowing and stunning enemies until he can safely get a kill with his E, using his ult to escape more often than not.

Unless you get very fed very early on as Ekko, at no point should you attempt to all in a Zed of equal levels, farms, or kills.

As somewhat an extension of this, as Ekko you want to focus on burst trades, waiting until Zed misses a sufficient number of abilities (typical shadow and Q/E, though Q would be better), and go in if you reckon your stun will nab him, setting up passive, letting Q proc it, and walking out just as the stun wears off.

Get the shield part of frozen heart first. I rush it with the Mana crystal and pots. Usually I rush catalyst for rod of ages next.

Poke all day with q, if you hit it twice e in and use the speed boost to back. You can get the Mana armor CD shield and catalyst and still do damage while becoming starting tanky. Finish rod of ages, then I've born. Or some heavy ap item if doing well.

But it should get to where he can't burst you late, and he shouldn't be able to kill you early if you zone and harass well.

Pop w soon as he ults you, and you always have R, one of the greatest ults ever.
