Eve triforce bruiser next patch?

Veraska·Oct 27, 2017·1 votes·329 views

Eve has 61 base ad which means she makes the base ad amplifier from sheen proc and steraks gauge gold efficient (other triforce users, jax irelia and nasus also hover in this range)

So since eve has a really hard time bursting squishies, or getting in range to burst squishies even you could just build her tanky and play an aggro mangnet with an escape button like old school tank ekko

My build probably

Electrocute keystone with sorcery as my secondary (ultimate hat feels to good)

Machete+refillable>sheen/revolver>triforce>gunblade>steraks>situational tank stuff

My only gripe with gunblade is its build path is atrocious, but if you get the gold flow goin anything is possible

If you do that all your dmg is from autoattaks and triforce :\

and your E dmg, which and each individual q cast can trigger spellblade, so it's not so different from playing irelia really, but it's mostly just speculation tho

It's different because Irelia has a low CD gap closer. Eve would have trouble sticking for long enough to use the theoretical DPS of the build. You'd have to spread out Q casts for the Triforce cooldown to get a lot of dmg so good luck sticking to your target for long enough.

Triforce Eve won't be good. She has no reason to autoattack, except to make her Q target specific things, which of course is useless if you're building Triforce because you're Q will do negative damage. Ekko with Trinity worked because Ekko has several reasons to autoattack baked into his kit, specifically his passive and W passive, and because he had things that synergized with being tanky, namely the AoE CC on his Q and W and the %hp heal on his ulti. Eve has one single target CC that's unreliable, her healing is dependant on AP and scales inversely with bonus health, so building tanky on her is just kind of a waste.

i think with the context of how you only need to tag the cursed target to get the proc, your q can act as sort of cc range amplifiers then dmg effects

you can hit front liners and tag the cursed mark behind them, it's not super unnatural that teams group up when they see eve's marker go up, same thing happens to rengar, thats kinda a super specific circumstance, but not an uncommon one

but yeah their are better incentives to build eve ap then there were ekko back when tank ekko was thing, im also blown out of my mind today's my day off my dude
