Guide to Synergizing Ekko and Olaf

Tips for Playing as Ekko with Olaf

Chronobreak is a potent escape tool, but it can also be quite powerful when used offensively. Don't underestimate its damage potential.

If you can proc Z-Drive Resonance on an enemy champion, it's worth taking risks to do so. The bonus Move Speed makes it easy to escape.

Phase Dive's dash is a great tool for setting up Ekko's other abilities. Use it to get double hits with Timewinder or get into position to detonate Parallel Convergence.

Advice to Understand How Olaf Will Play

Olaf can combine Berserker Rage, Vicious Strikes, and Ragnarok at low life to become deceptively strong.

The bonus healing granted by Vicious Strikes amplifies your Life Steal from all sources as well as heals from allies.

How to Play with Olaf as Ekko in LoL

The Ekko Olaf synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Olaf, 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 large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Olaf. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Olaf helps Ekko perform poorer in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.

When Ekko is an ally to Olaf, he gets a barely noticable drop in his complete damage output. This change could indicate that Olaf does not help cover for him to dish out more damage or that his presence also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Ekko is played alongside Olaf on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Olaf. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Olaf.

Additionally, when Ekko plays with Olaf on the same side, he usually receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Olaf does a decent job of covering Ekko in team fights.

Is Ekko better when played alongside Olaf?

There is no perfect champion pairing for Ekko that will 100% of the time be his best teammate. However, Olaf is a very typical teammate for Ekko. By playing on the same team as Ekko, he improves their win rate by 0.7% to 51.7%. This signals that there is a weak bond between Ekko and Olaf that allows them to perform better together than alone.

Olaf has a much lower diffuclty than Ekko. That means Ekko players don't need to be careful when enlisting Olaf comrades to play with, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Fighting together, Ekko players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by pairing Ekko and Olaf together, you may not be providing your team a lot of cover. Make sure to include other champions on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Olaf ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
