Overall, Ekko sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Soraka. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN.

When Ekko plays on the same team as Soraka, he observes a little increase in his total damage dealt. This change could indicate that Soraka helps provide cover for him to deal more damage or that her presence also helps increase the game's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Soraka.
Additionally, when Ekko plays with Soraka on the same team, he on average takes more damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt more damage could indicate that Soraka does a poor job of covering Ekko in team fights.
