Evelynn's Buff on The PBE

Zerenza··2 votes·1,929 views

As an Evelynn Main, i'm happy she's getting buffed, even though i don't think it was necessary but i have to say. Why increase the damage on her R? Sure occasionally i wouldn't kill someone with a Flash Ulti at level 6 despite dealing Double Damage but i mean, that's usually my B.

I really REALLY would have prefered that if you were to give any buff's to her it would be the 40% cooldown refund on her ultimate(This buff was on the PBE a long time ago but never made it live) because instead of increasing evelynn's damage, she doesn't need it and my nearly 300k mastery points tell me i can say that. Rewarding the evelynn player for successful kills with her ultimate seems more fitting to me.

Side Note: This buff does make killing tanks pre level 16 easier, but why does it need to be easier? I never really had trouble executing people with my ultimate, what i do have problems with are things that i'm SUPPOSED to have problems with. I don't get this buff, i think it's unnecessary and i'd much prefer to be rewarded for my kills, rather than just a base damage increase until she becomes too strong one day and get's nerfed into the ground.

changes like this can make her solo queue stronger and exploit that shes on the cusp of Pro viability but not quite there. Riot's buffing AP junglers in general, and maybe the thinking - If we're lucky and someone on the Live Design team is actually a mad genius - is that getting Ekko, Evelynn, etc. into Jungle pools then Sylas and Gragas drop in priority. Of course these might be post-worlds changes Im not 100% sure if this patch is going to be frozen or if Worlds will be on it/the next one
