Soraka and Evelynn Bot Possible?

I'm still newb/unranked soooo don't flame too hard, this is just a question.

I recently played a game(in which we ended up losing, but only because people started feeding towards the end, it was 61-69.lol.) where everyone locked in uber quickly and we were all just like wheel fudge, and went with it. I was playing Eve and ended up going 13-5-9 pairing mainly bot with Soraka. Started out duo jg then one went top and I went bot. It actually worked out incredibly well because her heals end up subbing most of my need for pots and was kinda like a strange sustain?

I'm curious if anyone thinks this might be a possible thing for like duo if you tweaked it a bit with some solid teamwork? And no like, "pft plz stahp being dumb just go be meta" trolling please. I know its not meta or main, but it would certainly not be something expected(if possible)

I would have to say no.... simply because eve is way too squishy early. Yeah you would have the heals from soraka, but soraka would essentially kill herself trying to keep eve healthy.

That being said I wouldn't say it is impossible. If you have the skills you can pretty much play anyone anywhere.

Eve is much better in the jungle, but if you wanted to put her in a duo lane for fun try her with lulu rather than raka, the speed up and shield would probably be really helpful.

I wouldn't recommend it.

Sure it's possible, but you're not going to contribute much to a siege. Even in a teamfight, you're not going to have that person who can stay in a position of safety and keep pumping out steady damage.

If your opponents don't know what you can do you might do well in lane, but there's more to the game than laning phase.

I have tried going into lane as Evelynn. I went mid. You get REALLY strong after a couple of items, but until you get them, all you can do is sit back, farm with Q, and try not to die to their spells. In bot, you have to deal with the auto attack harass, and even a soraka will have issues doing that.

If you like melee carries in bot though, it can work, but you need someone with a better early game. Trynd will reduce the enemy ADC's damage by 80 if you max his slow, and master yi is the original bot lane melee ADC.
