Based on 23 recent matches analyzed, Ryze wins with a 52.2% win rate compared to Ekko's 47.8%, giving Ryze a 4.3 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Ekko controls the early laning stage, but Ryze outscales as the game goes longer.

While Ryze is slightly favored, Ekko can absolutely win this lane through smart trading patterns and wave management. Focus on playing around your cooldowns, conceding CS only when necessary, and capitalizing on Ryze's mistakes.
