EKKO/ZILEAN - how does the deck work for you guys?

Submitted 2 years, 9 months ago by

With the new expansion I started to focus on EKKO builds.
This is my most conistent and enjoyable list so far:

https://outof.cards/legends-of-runeterra/decks/14362-ekkozilean-steampunk-blaster

Which EKKO builds are "hot" right now?
Which ones worked for you?
I find it "hard" to play with EKKO. The concept works and is strong but besides some "high roll fun" most of my Ws really needed to be earned
and were clutch as f****.

BBG is also a committed "EKKO player" now but struggles a lot to find the right balance.
Like "is it KAHIRI or RUIN RUNNER?", "is it SIVIR?", "DROPBOARDER or not?", "ITERATIVE IMPROVEMENT or just a nice 3drop?"

The META is still yound and so far no one has really find that one recipe "to rule them all"?
What do you guys play?

    I tried multiple Ekko decks and while I do enjoy the concept, I found them all to be too RNG for my liking. Something I would not find a single Chronobreak.

    Right now I am having lots fun with Lissandra and her army of frozen simps.

    You say your'e simping for Lissandra right now? I prefer simping for that sweet Glorious Evolution. With the help of ionia and Karma there is actually a chance to get the evolution going and once we achieved the evolution a single Vault Breaker can be really devestating

    There you go :)

    And about Heimerdinger: he is mainly in here to speedlevel Viktor, compensate for the rather low unit count and buff augment units

    PS: am I the only one disappointed that Viktor has no voiceline for the glorious evolution? Like it is HIS ONE GOAL and he goes like... who cares?

    Try VICTOR/APHELIOS - it was strong back then and is even stronger right now.
    Also VICTOR/ZILEAN as TIME BOMBS are created and you clone important cards with LVL 2 ZILEAN.

    It usually comes down to wether you can control the game until you can cast the glorious evolution (t7-t8). Once you have cast the evolution you are going to stomp the opponent but then again we talk about turn 8+ and getting there is not so easy even with the likes of Tasty Faefolk and Eye of the Dragon

    I doubt that Victor/Aphelios can be better now that Thermo has been nerf to 5 mana but I will give it a try. Never played Victor/Zilean before, the concept sounds interesting, will definitely go for that one first.

    Looks good enough.

    Spooky Eko is pretty fun.

    But don't ask me what's competitive this meta.

    All I que into is lurk and pirate aggro
