How to Play with Kai'Sa as Ekko in LoL

The Ekko Kai'Sa synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Kai'Sa, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Ekko sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Kai'Sa. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Kai'Sa helps Ekko perform worse in competitive League games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Ekko is paired with Kai'Sa, he observes a little drop in his full damage dealt. This may demonstrate that Kai'Sa does not support by providing protection for him to deal more damage or that her presence also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Ekko is played with Kai'Sa on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Kai'Sa.

Moreover, when Ekko plays with Kai'Sa on the same side, he often takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt more damage may mean that Kai'Sa does a poor job of protecting Ekko in teamfights.

Is Ekko better when played alongside Kai'Sa?

There is no universally accepted best synergy for Ekko that will always be his best ally. However, Kai'Sa is a very bad teammate for Ekko. By locking into the same side as Ekko, she lowers their win rate by -4.1% to 46.9%. This clearly indicates that there is a very bad bond between Ekko and Kai'Sa that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Kai'Sa has a lower difficulty than Ekko. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Kai'Sa comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

When playing on the same side, Ekko players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to destroy wih physical damage. When paired, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Although, by grouping Ekko and Kai'Sa together, you will not be granting your other teammates very much crowd control. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that offsets this relative disparity in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Kai'Sa ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
