Oneshotting the adc is fun and but if you can't end, you lose because evelynn doesn't scale. You also have to build full ap because she's an assassin. Not a diver. Before the rework, it was fine but now it's not. Assassins can't build tank items. Anyways, how do you end as evelynn

Any champ can build tank items. I have won multiple games as Ashe tank (i do it when my team mates bans my OTP zil). If you have hard time to help your team late game because of team fights - change your items and build tank, it attracts damage as opponents still see your as most dangerious champ.

I learned it by watching some clever Shaco players who can't do sht late game but once they switch their gear they influence their team in a tanky way.

If tanks can build Damage items, Assassins can grab tank items just as easily.

Evelynn scales pretty hard into the lategame, actually. She's got some really high AP ratios. If your issue is closing off long matches, I'd suggest running Gathering Storm because you just keep scaling. One thing to note, is that you're very team reliant when playing as Evelynn. Having a good frontline is a must.

Evelynn is best on a team with a high damage mage and a strong frontline, since your MR shred is highly valuable even if you fall behind and aren't able to safely pick people off. If you don't have a good frontline to make the fights happen, you're going to have a rough time, as having a good frontline will enable you to assassinate one, two, or sometimes even three squishies in a good fight.

Not having a strong frontline means you're likely going to have a very bad time as Evelynn, since you'll be required to make some seriously high risk plays, and you won't have much disruption available to keep you safe when you're going for the kill.

In general, your goals as Evelynn in the lategame are:

  • Pick off enemy Marksmen and Mages. Mages can be higher priority targets than Marksmen, Brand for example, so don't limit yourself to focusing down Marksmen.

  • Pick off enemy Assassins and Squishy Supports. Taking out Soraka, Sona, Janna, or Lulu can sometimes be more impactful than taking out the Marksmen themselves. Opportunistically try to take out enemy Assassins, as it will protect the rest of your team's squishies, if they're not significantly ahead of you.

  • MR Shred Fighters and Juggernauts for magic damage teammates if you're unable to pick off any squishies.
