A level-by-level game plan for Sion vs Ekko.
Levels 1-2
Lane priority is decided by who wins the level 1-2 skirmish or poke exchange.
- Sion should soak poke and hold lane priority through durability, not even trades.
- Ekko is usually weak before level 3 — this is your best window to punish them.
- OP.GG data flags Sion as a strong counter to Ekko in this role — you can afford to lean into trades early.
Levels 3-5
Trading windows open as skills come online — track cooldowns before you commit.
- Look for CC chains that let your jungler or teammates punish overextensions.
- Watch for a burst combo the moment you're caught out of position past the minion wave.
Level 6
Ultimates come online. This is usually the first real all-in window of the lane.
- Your ultimate usually turns you into a real engage or peel threat — use it on your terms.
- From level 6 on, Ekko can delete squishy targets — don't walk into brush without vision.
Levels 7-11
Priority shifts toward objectives — use a lane lead to pressure river, dragon, or Herald.
- Front line for your team around objectives so your carries can output freely.
- Expect roams onto your mid or jungler rather than a straight lane fight — ward flanks.
Levels 12-15
Item spikes start deciding fights more than levels do.
- Tank items complete — you should be nearly unkillable while still landing your CC.
- Once burst items complete, they can kill most targets in one combo — respect their range.
Level 16+
Both ultimates are maxed — play for your team's win condition, not just the lane.
- You start most teamfights and decide their shape — landing your engage matters most.
- Play around picks — Ekko wants to isolate a target before the fight actually starts.
