Ekko vs Bel’Veth Counter Pick
Matchup Summary
What the Data Means
Ekko, the Boy Who Shattered Time, meets Bel’Veth, the Empress of the Void, in the jungle. Over 480 ranked games on patch 16.13.1, Ekko closes out 46.3% of them. That is 3.8 points under even, which is why Bel’Veth is listed among the champions Ekko struggles into.
This is a melee mirror in terms of reach — 125 versus 150 — so spacing matters less than ability timing.
Both sides lean mixed, meaning Bel’Veth and Ekko shop from the same defensive shelf. Starting health splits 655 to 610 in Ekko’s favour, with armour at 32 against 32. At full build levels the gap widens to 2395 HP versus 2338, favouring Bel’Veth.
Watch the cooldowns that swing it: Ekko’s Timewinder (Q) against Bel’Veth’s Royal Maelstrom (E). Level six shifts things: Chronobreak on one side, Endless Banquet on the other.
Behind 46.3% are 480 games against Bel’Veth, not a handful of anecdotes.
