How To Beat Evelynn

I've seen a lot of people who think the new Evelynn is annoying and ban her because they don't know how to play against her. As someone who has played a lot of Evelynn, here's some tips to beat her so i can actually play her.

  1. Pink Wards. Normal wards don't work on Eve which actually works in your favor my bronze friend. Place one control ward in the river and Evelynn can't gank you, that simple. Due to how Evelynn's stealth works, she can't rely on blast cones or vision plants to sneak up on you so she has to walk up to you. However the delay on her charm means you can run from the middle of top/bot lane to your tower before she can fully charm you. Worst case scenario if you play smart, she ganks you but you don't die and now the only thing you've lost is 75 gold and the Evelynn has revealed herself to you, your team, and more importantly your jungler.

  2. Counter jungling. Eve literally cannot contest a jungler pre six and after six she can't contest a decent jungler at all. Once Evelynn reveals herself, take her whole jungle. She has to charm you to get the kill and can't do that if you're expecting her. Just predict her pathing to you, and farm with that in mind. In my experience there is not a single jungler Evelynn can beat at Lv1, and setting her behind and taking the time to keep her there can hurt her immensely. I've had times where one invade has delayed me from hitting six so long, the enemy jungler hit 9 before i got to 6 (Granted, this takes a garbage team for Eve and one capable of invading as a team on the other side, but still it's pretty brutal).

  3. Team up. She can't do anything if you team up. Hold your Tristana's hand and when Eve appears, you can blast her back to season six.

Hope this helps, now can i please play Eve?

People ban eve? DAyum.

Yeah, she is really weak. That charm, just sucks in team fights. Does absolutely nothing, except maybe zone for a few seconds.

A majority of my eve games have been good and snowballed in my favor

  1. because when i w i dont dick around on the edge and let people walk away
  2. i gank before 6 because people think that you cant.
  3. her w is pretty broken it has a decently long charm and it shreds far too much magic resist is its biggest thing where magic reist as a stat sucks without her w and its worse with her w Eve's first clear is pretty weak but backing and getting item 2032 pretty much negates her problems along with her passive

She oneshots Mundo while he's ulting. No issue at all.

I think she's too good with that item 3098 thing in the jungle. Cheap item that generates gold and gives her decent AP and CDR. Talk about fair jungling LuL.
