I'm a bronze jungle main, and I enjoy playing champs such as hecarim, kha'zix, and shyvana. I was recently getting interested in playing evelynn because I really like the stealth mechanic. However, I don't know what to build with her, because I see a lot of eve OTP build items such as triforce and edge of night, but when NB3 plays eve he always build AP. In the current meta, how do you guys think eve should be built?
Fondling Gems3 votesDefinitely not lethality. Since Eve does mostly magic damage she doesn't get much from it. You can build her either full AP or Hybrid for the most part. She can be played AD but it isn't her strongest build right now.
Personally I prefer Gunblade into AP items like Rylais. If they have someone tanky I need to stand around and sustain through I might pick up a BotRK to kill them plus better objective taking power.
Chimpanturticorn1 votesI saw this diamond eve one trick play edge of night, so I thought eve players were playing lethality. Also, doesn't evelynn have some pretty decent AD scaling on her Q and E?
Fondling Gems1 votesQ scales better with AP so E is the only reason to build AD. In general hybrid tends to work best from my experience though. Gunblade has a strong active for her and the omnivamp is really nice for jg clears.
If you saw an edge of night I would guess it is because the item is just really good right now and it is a better spellshield than banshies veil, especially since she can activate it while invisible. The AD isn't a bad stat on her but she doesn't actually care much about the lethality itself so she is getting the item for the active/raw AD/MR/movespeed out of combat rather than for the lethality.
Eedat1 votesI've seen both work tbh.
instantly deletes people and its cheaper than AD builds. I would go with that
Chimpanturticorn1 votesThanks, I'll give it a try
Eedat1 votes^ other guy is right. Dont build both . Build one or the other
Fondling Gems1 votesWhy both proto and gunblade? They share a CD and proto is a really bad item stat wise. I would pick up a rylais over it.

Linna Excel1 votesEve doesn't have much AD damage in her kit. She hasn't been a pure AD champ in awhile.
I just don't see lethality working on her as it is more for physical casters and assassins. When she does physical damage, it is either more AA focused or you are using your Q in conjunction with a trinity force. She'd also be built more like a bruiser I'm guessing.
