@Meddler Evelynn abilities make no sense for an Assassin.

> "Hey Meddler, hope your day is going well. Two questions I had about Eve: > 1.) Considering Eve’s struggling with closing the gap between her and her target, is there a reason the balance team prioritized damage buffs to her E instead of buffing her base movespeed or giving a small buff to her E and empowered E? > 2.) Is Eve even an assassin? She honestly plays more like a slightly more bursty skirmisher. She’s not at all bursty in the same way tha Kha’zix or Rengar or Talon are as true assassins? > We think she's closer to an assassin than any other subclass, agree she's got some skirmisher aspects though certainly. We're cautious about giving her too much target access given her permanent camo post 6 and access to hard CC on a basic spell, both of which are not strengths other assassins (who do tend to have significantly better gap closing) have." >
The comment just makes no sense to me when other AP assassins completely destroy the point made in the response, Ahri has 2 second charm that actually does damage, Leblanc has a Snare, Ekko has a stun, Shaco has a fear, Rengar has a Snare.
She just doesn't make sense as a Assassin, she has very little burst if you don't get them at a certain threshold her W gives away her location AKA the only thing letting her get remotely close to someone, Her E is practically melee range and her Ult forces you to go out if you want to actually use it.
In a game where Assassins only draw is their mobility over Burst mages not giving an Assassin any mobility on a basic ability just seems silly
