History

Riot patch notes that name Ekko, newest first

Patch	Date	Changes
14.118x2 duos	29 May 2024	Health Growth: 99 ⇒ 121 Q Outgoing Damage: 70-130 (+30% AP) ⇒ 90-150 (+30% AP) W Cooldown: 22/20/18/16/14 ⇒ 14/13/12/11/10⁶

Earlier formats

Outlaw's Grit is a good gold augment for Ekko because he already deals damage and can use the free stats to avoid dying.⁷ 8x2 duos
Dashing is recommended as Ekko's best-in-slot augment in one personal-experience-based champion list.⁸ 8x2 duos
Ability haste has little value on Ekko because his passive has a flat cooldown and his abilities already have short cooldowns.⁹ 8x2 duos
Attack-range augments and Rapid Firecannon could make Ekko's E dash-auto reach across two screens.¹⁰ 8x2 duos
