You can now pick up your favorite League of Legends characters and learn how to fight your opponents in 2XKO. Each character offers special fighting abilities that you need to learn, but as a beginner, it can be difficult to pick and learn all the characters. That’s where you might need to figure out the best team setup to help you win.
Best Beginner Teams to Try in 2XKO

Darius & Ekko
| Champion | Archetype |
| Darius | Striker |
| Ekko | Mix-up |
Ekko might be a bit difficult to master from the beginning, but his moveset, paired with Darius, definitely helped me step up my game. Darius is a great beginner pick for his massive hitbox, but he is quite slow to counterattacks. That’s where Ekko comes in, and with agility and mix-up potential, this duo makes a great combination for beginners.
Vi & Blitzcrank
| Champion | Archetype |
| Blitzcrank | Grappler |
| Vi | Rushdown |
Blitzcrank is better off as an assist, so I usually kept them in the backseat and used Vi to the max. Vi is a great pick since I preferred to smash random combo buttons all day, and she was quick enough to get close to the opponents. If it takes too long to bridge the gap, I use Blitzcrank to pull them towards me instead.
Blitzcrank & Braum
| Champion | Archetype |
| Blitzcrank | Grappler |
| Braum | Bruiser |
Sometimes, I just want to sit back a bit and defend my spot rather than jump in headfirst. For that, I found the combo of Blitz and Braum pretty good. Braum’s protective shield helps keep the heat off my team, and combined with Blitzcrank’s attacks, this could make a powerful combo for early game defense.
Yasuo & Darius
| Champion | Archetype |
| Darius | Striker |
| Yasuo | All-Rounder |
If you have mastered the Darius and Ekko combo, then learning about Yasuo would come naturally. Like Ekko, Yasuo is also known for high agility and range, and you can easily learn to weave powerful combos that deal massive damage. With Darius’ straightforward but hunkering attacks, you can cover the gap in between by using Yasuo.
Darius & Illaoi
| Champion | Archetype |
| Darius | Striker |
| Illaoi | Bruiser |
Two huge, heavy bodies rolled into one team is a recipe for success, that is, if you can manage learning Illaoi’s skillset quickly. But not to worry, as Darius could easily carry this team ahead. It is best to keep Illaoi as a support and use her long-reach attacks to take care of the opponent beyond Darius’ radar. If you prefer to time your moves correctly and be patient, then this combo is the one for you.
Warwick & Darius
| Champion | Archetype |
| Darius | Striker |
| Warwick | Rushdown |
You don’t have to think a lot while using this combo, as just smashing the respective attack buttons will yield insane results. Warwick offers a good selection of mix-ups in the bag for efficient combo moves, while you could use Darius as a backup when things start getting too intense. But both champions offer really serious damage, which will help you breeze through the fights quickly without thinking too much.
