A much needed re visitation
Yes everyone. I think it is time that Riot make a priority in their champ department, and i feel this should be priority number 1. Why? I'll tell you why. Evelynn. A champion that has gone from being one of the most feared champs on the field, to an almost non existent rarity equal to seeing a Mew Two in Pokemon. Riot has been reworking many champions, revisiting them, changing their kit, buffing and nerfing where needed, but here is where i see the issue with this. Those champions were still relevant before being changed. Ever since they decided to "rework" Evelyn, which was more like a slight kit change for the worse, she has simply faded out of existence. And to make matters worse for those that do decide to play her, if you played her before her "rework", you will all know how much of a joke her "stealth" is. Its a passive. Okay, that's cool. But what use is stealth if they can see you from 5(in game) feet away. It completely nullifies the use of stealth, other than evading wards. There are a number of champs in the game that have stealth, and all of them can literally stand in the enemy and not be seen. Before her "rework", it was an active ability, and functioned as stealth should, as all the other stealth champs do. It played a big role in her ability to damage and "surprise" the enemy. That's one of the main reasons shes faded, she simply can not stealth any more, so her ability is drastically diminished.
----"Swift and lethal, Evelynn is one of the most deadly - and expensive - assassins in all of Runeterra. Able to merge with the shadows at will, she patiently stalks her prey, waiting for the right moment to strike."----
A description from her very lore page, also no longer relevant or true.
I feel as though she has been all but forgotten, a champion once at the top, and now left in the dirt, without so much as a glimmer of hope, nothing heard about even a possibility of touching her up soon. This is something that needs to be remedied. A champion that is not even relevant in the current season, hell, the last 3 seasons, might as well be taken out, and replaced, as shes clearly doing no good. Help make a change guys. Let this be known to Riot. Bring Evelynn back. Make her relevant again. I beg you.
*Side note: I know not all players suffer from the new Evelynn, but the players that have luck with her are far outweighed by those that have just forgotten about her and moved on. Anyone who played Season 1 Evelynn knows what im talking about.
