This change could signal that Gwen does not support by providing protection for him to dish out more damage or that her participation also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Ekko is played with Gwen on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Gwen.
Additionally, when Ekko plays with Gwen on the same team, he often receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Receiving not as much damage could mean that Gwen does a decent job of protecting Ekko during team fights.
