Evelynn Mains Only plz.

Halodjin Tyr·Apr 12, 2019·2 votes·1,484 views

does anybody find they are still having Consistent success as Evelynn ? I found I was doing well until the patch before Kayle came out, now I'm sitting at a 20% win rate and really not having any fun at all. not looking for anybody to review my game play and point fingers I'm just curious how other people are fairing.

I have 1.7mil mastery as the champion, and Now I'm getting destroyed by teams of people at 20k mastery. What I'm trying to evaluate is do I need to rethink how I'm playing her, do you think she's in a healthy state ?

MPs don't equal skill on a certain champion, just show you play him/her/it a lot.

your off topic, and not a Eve main, go away.

yeah, but your whole statement was designed to be Inflammatory it's annoying, any fool can see the whole point was that I'm familiar with the Champion with more then a few years experience, not mastery makes you a god. but to go from a 70% win rate to a 20% win rate is a little ridiculous just wanna know if other people are taking a Dive.

That doesn't tell me "any fool can see the whole point was that I'm familiar with the Champion", it tells me that you overvalue your Points and look down on people with fewer.

I guess it's how you look at it.

I have tried evelyn several times. I had x10 more success on my first game as Khazix than on my 10th game evelyn.

My opinion is she sucks. When behind she is a paperweight and underwhelming when ahead. I never had issues playing against her.

I got 190k on amumu and i can't do half of the things i do on khazix and i've played like 4 games on khazix.

It's all about playing the right champ. That's why i play right now. She is a vanguard like amumu but just much much much better

Halodjin TyrApr 12, 20191 votes

yeah, I was fighting a khazix in my last game, he was stupid Impactful, I took the red drake at level 4, and he still rolled over my team. to be fair though we didn't have an ADC so we wheren't exactly meta. I find if I don't build Tank it's Game over when I fight him. I went Predator/Ghost/mobi boots so I could keep up with/run away from him and he was still catching up/rolling over me most of the time.

I mean, I was going to comment, but I guess I can't now because I'm not an Evelynn main.

As Laufplanke said, Mastery Points don't equal skill. This doesn't mean you're a bad Evelynn, but it means that you shouldn't dwell so much on being beaten by people with lower MP totals. Don't let it discourage you.

First and foremost, if you're not having fun on a champion anymore, you can always try to pick up a new one. I'm a firm believer that you should always have fun on your champion (winning or losing) and if you aren't, they may not be right for you. Obviously that doesn't apply to everyone, just something to think about.

Have you tried following guides from places like MOBAfire or are you trying to play without any outside help?

Halodjin TyrApr 12, 20191 votes

to be honest, I'm usually doing what the guides are saying before the new ones come out, last few games I've been mucking around with Speed masteries just to have a little fun, test em out. I find they can be quite handy when you have Long range mages which had some surprising Results, and it's quite handy when you bump into a Pink. but it effectively makes you worthless if you don't have a good long range Mage on your team to follow up with. it was definitely a lot of fun in some scenarios but come late game your mostly just an annoying fly playing clean up. (and once again) I'm not implying Mastery makes you A god I'm Implying that I have a lot of experience at the game, your definitely getting the charm off when you do it, but your only going to do 40%-20% of their max hp when you strike. it can be rather interesting if your team is winning ,but you fall off quick as the game goes on, and then the team is effectively fighting a 4v5, with a Rabid dog on the Guys who run.

well my highest wr this season is evelynn but i feel like jgers such as j4 rek and heca are better atm, but evelynn isnt exactly bad shes still decent rn just not as good as shes been the rest of this season

EDIT: dude im sry but you need flash and electrocute thats the main issue here, off meta doesnt work in this season you need to just do the standard electrocute and rush lich then deathcap or spellbinder i see you mostly build morello second but thats never really a good option over straight ap, it screws with your power spikes and flat magic pen outside of sorc boots doesnt fair better than straight ap in a tanky or squishy comp

Halodjin TyrApr 12, 20191 votes

Yeah, I know if you go back in my games that's what I do, I'm just mixing it up this patch to try out the new predator since my win rate was Crap anyway. I was mixing it up because I'm doing so badly. if you scroll back you'll see I was testing the new Ghost poro runes for awhile too.

Dr DogApr 12, 20191 votes

ya look back up tho your builds could use some tweaking, mainly morello since it hasnt been good on eve since they nerfed it awhile back

Halodjin TyrApr 12, 20191 votes

see this is why I said don't try to give me advice on my Game play, just comment on how your doing personally, I've built Morel like twice in 4 months maybe 3 times as a test. my last 20 games have been Mostly Tests.

Dr DogApr 12, 20191 votes

well a lot of my success has been early ganking, pre 6 ganks on evelynn are underrated and you can force a LOT of flashes right off the bat to set your lane up into a good spot till your 6 and can start spam ganking, bot lane also has a lot of gank paths for evelynn and is always who you wanna try to camp as bot lane is just so important rn especially because losing bot = no drags against most jgers

You can't make a post on a public forum and expect non-Evelynn mains to not say anything. I'd recommend moving this to the Evelynn mains subreddit

https://www.reddit.com/r/EvelynnMains/

There's the link. Enjoy.

Halodjin TyrApr 12, 20191 votes

I don't use Reddit, too political.

QuáxApr 14, 20191 votes

Then don't get mad for non-eve mains for commenting on the issue.

she needed to be nerfed. lol

Kai GuyApr 12, 20191 votes

Some one on the boards called the current game state a Micro Meta, which I find myself in agreement with. My opinion is that Eve is very much a Macro champion. When she is in a good spot in the meta I find it to be a real struggle when 2 lanes lose early game and they cant play from behind, be that a lack of player skill, bad matchups, or champion pick.

I understand your desire to have a Eve main conversation, I however have her as a bench pick. Mastery points don't convert directly into skill but are simply about # of games played. For my Eve credentials I was very vocal about the mechanical significance of being able to use her R to gap close situationally to make plays, something I was adamant about when she was first reworked that you STILL you don't use being used correctly nearly 2 years later, even with high mastery players. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1KU4q3IM8m1kZcRctMHTd2i-XfQU94Ub

Also still don't see folks use her W to slow. To many wasted kills cuz folks just don't know when to Q W some one outa stealth, its a strong slow with solid duration and if the W is cast as Q is in air its very very short window for players to react to and will almost always require a Flash to avoid getting combed by QER.

But yea, Not a champion id play currently with out being in a group with players I know. The risk of 2 lanes failing before i hit 6 or get my first item power spike is high. Mechanically eve is a lot safer early game then players give her credit for but doing it for large camps slows her clears down. If your teammates control vision the risk of an invades no big deal. When they don't understand the importance of controlling invades then you have issues with some popular picks right now.

Tldr. Focus on early game snowballing makes it difficult to be a mid game carry, which is my personal view on eve's kit.
