Do you really agree that Evelynn is a 10 on the difficulty scale?

I know that people don't really put a lot of stock in those, but do you agree that she's one of the most difficult champions in the entire roster to pick up and do well with?

Her kit is very straightforward and simple - and you have a radius that shows where your stealth range is. I've played her since the game was released so maybe I'm biased, but she really doesn't seem like a character more difficult than like Shaco.

Difficulty scale is made for new players to give an indicator how hard they are to just pick up and play well with. It is related to skill floor, and in no way gives any indicator to how high the skill ceiling is.

I wouldn't recommend anyone to start out with eve, as her stealth mechanic makes her to be played in a different way than most champions.

Someone told me the difficulty scale is based of new player trying the champion. That why her difficulty bar is high.

Oh yeah.

She may be one of the most mechanically simple champions.

But that's not the reason for her being one of the most difficult champions in the entire game to play.

That has to do with her passive which is so OP it means everything else about her has to be a bit sub par, a bit lackluster, which in turn means she's totally reliant on the person playing her to make the right decisions in the game, both tactically and strategically, every single time or they just die and probably lose the game.

Shes one of the most difficult champions in the game not because it takes great mechanics to play her. Shes one of the most difficult champs in the game to play because it takes insane intelligence and awareness to play her. Qualities most league players happen to lack.

Right.. so you agree that the 10 is undeserved. Why downvote? lol

BOI, if you don't snowball on Evelynn, if you don't win the early game, you've literally wasted your opportunity to pick a better champion because she can not duel anyone.

I guess but there are a lot of snowball reliant champions. esp Nunu . jk. But seriously, a lot of champs are dependant on their early game.

But really there are so many champs that require difficult mechanics to pull off, even for a seasoned player. I think Zed Viktor AurelionSol Taliyah Leblanc are all way more difficult to play, mechanics-wise.

And I say this with Evelynn being my #2 champion of all time. For a 3 trick player, this means thousands of games.

She's difficult in that she requires a different approach to being played than most assassins.

No she's extremely simple.
