Evelynn: A Little Bit of Everything

As my first article on a specific champion, I decided to write on Evelynn because she isn't a champion that gets a lot of attention, even after her rehaul. This article is purely based off my experiences with her, so it can be, and probably is biased.

Evelynn is an extremely flexible and versatile champion. She can fulfill the role of AP Carry, Jungler, and she is an exceptional roamer. I primarily play her as a Jungler/Roamer so that's what I will be discussing in this post.

 Putting Evelynn in the jungle gives your team a roamer with high burst, high mobility, and a close to undetectable ganker. Evelynn's passive allows her to move around the map unnoticeable to any regular wards, only pink wards and champions within a certain radius can see her. This allows Eve to position herself almost perfectly for ganks, and sneak into bushes without the enemy team knowing easily.

Evelynn's first skill acts almost like a ranged autoattack, and scales off her AD as well as AP. The great thing about this skill is that it can be casted while moving. This makes Eve an incredible kiter when paired with her second skill.

Her second skill is a cleanse-like ability that removes any slows from Eve, and gives her a speed boost for a short time. This skill helps keep her out of harms way, and gives her the mobility she needs to dart in and out of team fights.

Evelynn's third skill is a melee range nuke that scales off her AD and AP, as well as giving her a short buff to her attack speed. This is great for backdooring, since Eve's auto attack damage is pretty high already, and you can use this skill on minions to get the attack speed buff.

Eve's ultimate completes her combo by giving her good burst damage as well as survivability. When first used, it does damage based on the health of the champions it hits, this percentage scales off her AP. The survivability part comes through the shield she is given on use of her ulti. The amount of damage the shield blocks is dependent on how many champions are in her ultimate. The more champions caught in it, the larger the shield is.

The one 'must have' item for Evelynn is Deathfire's Grasp. It does damage based on the targets maximum health, as well as increases all magic damage to that target. This item gives Eve insane burst, and allows her to one shot most carries, and health stacking bruisers.
