Guide to Synergizing Janna and Ekko

Tips for Playing as Janna with Ekko

Timing Janna's ultimate can push enemies away from a wounded ally or even separate enemies.

Eye of the Storm can be used on allied turrets.

Advice to Understand How Ekko Will Play

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.
