why nerf evelyn?

Bears Dont Care··29 votes·1,432 views

She mana starves very quickly and very easily. while runeglaive helps with her mana, it does not for combat against champions. I cannot see a reason why dark frenzy must have a mana cost.

but hey, it's eve. She is seeing usage in the lcs so gotta nerf her in some way.

Then again I suppose I should be more apathetic and follow my name. Riot will do as they wish. As always.

Gotta keep those ugly, outdated champions away from the spectors' eyes right? Because let's be honest, the spectator event is all that matters right? Oh, it isn't? Well what the hell do you know?? Quick, nerf Elise again; she might still be able to fight Lee Sin!

Funny that they are doing it after the worlds patch though. Those spectators are so important...

Why should Evelynn, an assassin who has an insanely good slow on her ult that is AOE, get a free movespeed boost and slow breaker? Oh, and it RESETS on kill or assist, and its cooldown is lowered when you hit an enemy with Q, which should be happening even after the nerfs to her Q missile speed. A totally deserved nerf imo.

Or would you rather see a blind monk jumping around screaming "LCS BIG PLAYS"

Lee doesn't get a free pass late game to get resets in a teamfight and run train on your back line with a slow of more than 60%, a shield that scales like mad, and crazy potential for on-hit stuff with runeglaive. I'd rather get wrecked by a good Lee who exerts good early pressure than an Eve who has global pressure because "I'm Evelynn, normal wards don't work on me."

You're right.

Lee Sin just gets a free pass by having an extremely overloaded kit and being one of Riot's favourites.

You just listed her Ult as two things she has late game for team fights. Its hilarious how much stock you put into an ability that so many of us agree is too weak. It shouldn't have to be used for the slow, but it is, which is pathetic because of its massive CD (comparatively to that of Lee's). the shield only matters if the enemy team is dumb enough to clump close enough together that she hits more than two champions.

I can do the same thing though. Lee not only has an easy to manage (and essentially limitless) resource but Lee gets a FREE Disengage-Engaging highly damaging ult that not only displaces a target and knocks them back, but it knocks up any enemies they pace through, and scales off a large amount of Lee's AD and his targets health. Hard CC > Soft CC

I could go into detail about what Lee Sin has over Evelynn but I won't, I don't want to draw any more attention to how utterly ridiculous you sound.

He is healthier than Evelyn has ever been, he deserves to be viable above her.

ARequestOfDeath1 votes

NOPE HE IS THE MOST OVERRATED CHAMPION. vi is a example of a healthy jungler good at ganking can't go after multiple targets has a good lockdown ulti.

Why should Evelynn, an assassin

...

an assassin

...

has an insanely good slow on her ult that is AOE

You've forgot to add:

  • insanely long CD
  • insanely low damage -insanely tank-like ability

get a free movespeed boost and slow breaker?

How come Sivir gets spellshield for free? And it gives her mana?

You see what I did? I've pulled the same trick as you.

Oh, and it RESETS on kill or assist, and its cooldown is lowered when you hit an enemy with Q,

Dude, It's obvious tyou haven't played Evelynn. She needs that as much as Vayne needs botrk. She has to chase and stick to target.

A totally deserved nerf imo.

We all have our own opinions. But dude. For fks sake. You don't even know Evelynn.

You suck.

ovenjohnson1 votes

You can say "You suck." Yet I'm Diamond 5 in solo queue. I stated my points in my posts, and you resort to that, really nice job.

shepshifter5 votes

You have never played Evelynn on said Diamond 5 account, being diamond 5 is not equel to having played and understanding Evelynn's kit.

Saianna1 votes

my "you suck" wasn't to offend or flame you.

by "you suck" i wanted to say:

You do not know anything about Evelynn, yet you act like Pro-evelynn player, skipping EVERY bad thing about her while gloryfing her slightly above average pluses. that is why i believe you should be quiet and not create confusion with your uber-biased hate-evelynn opinion.

Well they said she was too strong.

But imo, they should just accept the fact that they screwed up royally with their vision change and just rework her (again) or introduce a way to counter stealth.

It was kinda obvious that she would end up being nerfed over and over when they decided to change the pink wards.

maybe cause she controls map just for being picked?

Pretty obvious. She isn't a blobfish. In fact, I have composed a simulation as if she were a blobfish. http://s8.postimg.org/qm5gtpnf5/PSMix_2015_10_01_19_16_42.jpg?noCache=144372409http://s8 You can clearly notice major improvments around the face area.

This is an odd change, 0->40 is a HUGE mana nerf

Perhaps there's going to be more Pre-season changes that justify this.

if lee isn't strong in the lcs he is weak in general according to riot/
