Why I feel Eve is just not fun to play.

The Early game is just too Team fight focused now, I'm designed not to be effective or work Until a certain point of the match. In most of my Match ups by 4-6minutes their is a 4 or 5 man Gank on bottom, that is sometimes strong enough to take first Turret. I don't have a presence, Maybe if my Charm Shred Armour as well I could work with a ADC. but if I get a Yasuo mid, with a ADC (non magic Team) I have to Give up first Dragon, Usually second as well depends on how good they are at pink warding. First bot tower due to the new strats, and their is no such thing as Playing safe under tower anymore when Behind those Turrets need to hurt more and punish Mistakes harder on consecutive blows, so I take so Long to start helping usually my Botlane is about 8 deaths down by the Time I hit level 6. and that's my situation if things are Going well for me.

In a situation where It's not going well, for Example Shaco into Eve. Shaco stalks me Invisibly from a safe spot watching me farm Pops in ontop of me/blows me up at every camp until I'm not worth the time/taken every piece of Farm. Or it's a lee, Or a Jarvern, or a Xiao, list goes on pretty sure the only champion I can kill in the early game is Nunu. and then they roll through Every lane as a Murder Hobo while farming my jg. because the attitude of 90% of the players out their, is I'm not going to go Help an Eve it's a Instant loss of Lane for me if I go.

and even when I have that Glory Game when I go 20/3/14 kills honestly it's not fun, because even if I get Every Dragon Objective, Every Rift, I still Can't Push Lanes to Victory so really I'm just an annoying Murder Hobo Murdering everyone waiting for my Team to play the game for me.

Well Eve doenst look as a, but shes a Late Game Champ, with 3/4+ Items shes deletes even Tanks with her w+e. Also Eve should never used directly, be always sneaky with her and wait for the right moment.

But i would prever her to have more power on Early/Mid Game shes to weak and as an invader she can barely not fight 1on1 against potent junglers. Also u has almost never the pressure to contest the Dragon/Herold.

Evelynn is like Master Yi, a lot of times you Sacrifice your early game, dragons, camps, teammates so that you can get level 6 and start being useful. It sucks to get invaded but that's both a defined weakness of her's as well as an Avoidable one. Kingstix has several videos on how to play her with those things in mind.

She shouldn't shred armor as well because her kit doesn't really facilitate a Utility playstyle, the utility wouldn't really change anything you'd still have the same issue of her pre-6 ganks being weak regardless because she, as a champion is meant to be weak pre-6. Because of her insanely high Scaling into late game for an assassin if exploiting her early game wasn't possible she'd be broken and i'd rather my favorite champion that i have 500 games on not be broken pick or ban. I've learned to deal with her early game through guides, better macro and better understanding of enemy pathing.

Evelynn is not easy, she isn't meant to be, she play's differently than other jungler's and has different weaknesses and strength than them too you just gotta live with it.

If i could give a few tips

  1. Ward the enemies buff opposite their botside at 40-50 seconds.
  2. If you know your playing against a champion(Olaf is a great example) who likes to invade you at your Blue(if you started bot-side red) or Red(if you started your blue with botside) then start with a Toplane leash instead. Your only goal is to avoid them until you hit 6, nothing else, if you see an easy gank sure go ahead but remember, primary goal is to hit 6.
  3. Don't get your Jungle Item first back, Evelynn's clearspeed and strength doesn't go up with getting Blue Smite, your better off going Fiendish Codex+Boots/Dark Seal instead. Incidentally if you hit 6 and have these items then invade, you'll kill the enemy jungle 90% of the time, if you go your Jungle Item first you'll probably lose unless they're insanely low.
  4. Invade when you see the enemy jungler on another side of the map. Evelynn can full clear in 3 minutes and 15 seconds easy, other jungler's cant especially early ganking AD Bruiser's, they also tend to go the same Buff+Buff+Gromp clear, so steal their camps.

I wish she still had Ravage and Agonys Embrace but she really does need more E damage and 1v1 trading pre-r strength. Really eve is lacking because she needs Exp and junglers get starved for it

it would be nice if landing the Q felt more rewarding, like a Stacking Debuff Against Armour or a stacking Slow due to unstable Terrain. of if you land Every Q they get knocked up by Jagged rocks, but mostly my Q just gets in the Way on a fleeing target because I Have to stop walking for a second to cast it, Meanwhile Asphelios Does a Full on Glide as he Autos you to death, makes kalista look pathetic, Maybe if the Q would Pull you into her E if you land enough of em, and to be honest I want my E to be a Skill shot that I can use to not only Kill a player but Launch myself in a direction for Dodges or Diving into Dragon Pit to smite steal. it's dumb that Lee can do it with martial arts but a Fucking gas Cloud can't do shit, I used to play Eve because her W was like being Sonic the bloody Hedgehog on steroids in a team fight it was amazing!! now I'm such a slow turtle With no real Dodge ability it's annoying. I hate being Slow.
