First off i would like to say i like eve's new design overall so far from visuals to her new skills and yes that includes the new ultimate! now that being said i do have a few concerns about her as well.

**Primary concern: **The stealth reveal radius is absolutely massive from images i have seen so far and it seems large enough that skillfully positioning to walk behind someone in lane is not possible it also seems that she cannot even walk into bushes if both lanes are equal in distance because her reveal radius will touch them before she gets anywhere near first bush and that is assuming it is not warded.

Secondary concern: I get it you want her to be an ap champion and cool i get it however she should still have some small hybrid scaling on her Q ability if only for the sake of access to item 3146 without feeling like its a complete waste of stats.

For the reveal radius it either needs to be smaller by a flat amount or have the size of the reveal radius scale down per level, and before you ask yes this is in part how the champion will feel issue but also gameplay mechanics issue, as for the no ad ratio on Q again its a feel issue she shouldn't be denied what most eve mains consider a core item on her and before you say oh that doesn't matter imagine jax losing access to trinity force or vayne blade of the king.

Now that being said i could be completely wrong and this will feel and play great but honestly i highly doubt that as we have gone down this road before with riot on the reveal radius and it felt crappy being that large back then and it will feel just as crappy now if not more considering stealth is blocked until level 6 just to get a reveal radius that seems as large if not larger then a towers sight/detection fire radius.

Evelynn really doesn't need Gunblade anymore because she's moving away from sustained damage and into burst. Gunblade is only better for you if you focus on some autos and also are inclined towards slow, chipaway damage that can keep you healthy as you fight. New Evelynn is more slanted towards high burst, and plus her stealth mode now gives her health sustain when she disengages, and her Ultimate will remove her from a bad situation, again removing her need for the Gunblade as a means of life sustain. So yeah, she doesn't need AD scaling because her AP scaling will suffice.
