Positives:
+ A very creative build
+ Your guide is very colorful and artistic, it gives a great level of present-ability
+ Very effective video and images
+ Very in-depth


Possibilities:
~ A common issue with over-coding pops up from time to time. For example, when you talk about exhaust you code the word exhaust over and over again in a very short time. If you just had an icon show the coded word, don't feel bad about not slapping brackets on it for a paragraph or two.


Negatives:
- You need to edit the alignment on your pro's and con's section.
- You go in-depth on the items individually which is good for comparisons, but you don't seem to talk about your build as a whole. The first comment on this guide gives a great point. Why Trinity Force if you are just going to get a Rabadon's Deathcap?


Overall you have a very good guide here, and I see no reason why this shouldn't be the #1 guide for eve. Pm me after you make a few minor changes and I will issue a final vote :)

Great guide! I really like the idea of hybrid champions and your guide showed that Evelynn is a viable hybrid so I bought her and have been doing pretty well against intermediate bots. I do have one question though.

What's your opinion on Guinsoo's Rageblade? I like it because it gives AD and AS for sustained dps, and it gives AP for a little more burst. I was wondering if you do think it's a good idea, what item would you replace it for?

Thanks in advance, and once again great guide

Specolar


That's actually really funny, because I planned on adding it into the alternative items relatively soon. (I just got my wisdom teeth removed, so I'm a bit out of commission for testing items/strategies in-game)

I currently think that Guinsoo's Rageblade is an excellent item for Evelynn, and you can try replacing it with Black Cleaver, or, (if you think that you're doing good and don't need the Mana/Magic Resist), Chalice of Harmony might be another good option to trade with. (As Chalice of Harmony really is more of an early game item.)

Thank you for your kind words :)

considering your enemy will just stand still waiting for you to attack him and is full squishy. and 4 seconds is A LOT of time - most people rage for getting 0.5 sec stun, taking 4 secs to deal some "OK" amount of damage is not enough.

some stuff else:
- which lane are you in? i mean, unless you are lvl 0-20 people don't play the meta, but following it, which lane would you go in?


- you said you deal 1600 damage in 4 secs. AP evelynn with full build deals about 500 ( Deathfire Grasp) + 800 (E, usually more but) + 800 ( Lich Bane proc) - in less than two seconds. 2100 dmg on half the time.

- ad evelynn with full build crits more than 800 each hit with a really fast AS (boots + Infinity Edge + [the bloodthirster]. + Guardian Angel (indeed) + Phantom Dancer + Trinity Force.) - which would be also like 2k++++++ in a lower period of time

- sustained damage isn't about time

- Lich Bane vs Trinity Force isn't about additional stats. it's just that Lich Bane is for champs with high ap bonus from items (a normal ap eve, e.g) which this build hasn't got.

- Chalice of Harmony isn't useless, but it's COMPLETELY SITUATIONAL for you to put in the "main build". plus it's not about survival, it's about mana sustain.

- you say "Guardian Angel if you feel like their damage is too high to avoid and comes balanced in AD and AP."
guardian angel isn't about getting armor and mr (well that also) but it's actually about the passive, it's a late game item which you get to assure a teamfight that might be game-changing, or if you find yourself dying too often in teamfights (so it would be a mid game item)

- plus let me make something clear. so, you got boots of mobilty + Lich Bane + Zhonya's Hourglass + Rabadon's Deathcap. your ap ratios are quite high... but WHY THE **** WOULD YOU WANT TO GET ARMOR REDUCTION FOR THAT? YOU NEED MR REDUCTION!!!! this is my point, there is no sense on getting Black Cleaver - mixing stuff like that will bring you nothing but nothing.

- ad evelynn: high ad ratios - low ap ratios, low burst, high DPS
ap evelynn: low ad ratios - high ap ratios, high burst, low DPS
hybrid evelynn: ok ad ratios, ok ap ratios, ok burst, nice dps
this build: low ad ratios, low ap ratios, low burst, low dps - i said low, not ****ty

so yeah i think i said **** before, your build isn't useless: it's like hybrid eve, just weaker... it's just that there's no reason to do it if you actually can rape a lot more with other buils.

My build, I disagree with you 100%. Okay.

I know it works and I honestly don't care if you don't like it, that's one less good Evelynn I'll have to see.

the vlad part was a joke
btw, you really WILL lack both AAs and spells damage. if you want to burst someone down play AP eve with deathfire + lich. if you want constant damage go for ad eve. but no dude, just randomly mixing both WON'T WORK, and you won't have neither constant damage or burst. unless you're level 1-15, of course.


1) Didn't sound like a joke.

2) No, you won't. Your spells will charge sheen procs to deal additional AD damage added onto the base OF your AD. I have in my items section a very indepth selection of alternative choices including replacing Trinity Force with Lich Bane and adding a wider range of ability power items to increase your AP damage output. This is how I play her. It is "my own style."

That's what a guide should be, right? If my guide was just ripping off other guides, how it even my guide?

3) You actually have constant damage and a 1:1 AP ratio on Ravage + a 320 base damage is a nice burst to me. Constant damage from on-hit Black Cleaver/ Wit's End and Trinity Force AS + Trinity Force Sheen procs.

Here's a little math.

1:1 AP Ratio + 320 base on Ravage: 270 base AP with this build, +30% = 351 AP
351 + 320 = 671 initial burst.

Taking a base of 30 magic resist into account, you now have 23% reduced = 517 initial damage

This will proc your Trinity Force or Lich Bane
>>: Trinity Force -> 288 damage
>>: Lich Bane (Lich bane would provide +80 ability power, so new math is added below) -> 578

1:1 AP Ratio + 320 base on Ravage: 320 + 30% = 416 AP
416 + 320 = 736 Initial damage
567 Actual Damage

Proc grants +100% ability power to next basic attack
(Considering you don't have Trinity Force, subtracting 30 AD) (162 + 416) = 578
---
(Not counting armor, as it scales and would be hard to measure, based off of a 30 MR)
Trinity Force - 288 + 517 = 805
Lich Bane - 578 + 567 = 1145

Lich Bane wins the battle for burst.

Proceeding, with Trinity Force you have 192 AD
With Trinity Force + Black Cleaver your AS will be 1.7408 at level 18
Every attack you reduce the enemy's armor by 15, so in around 1.75 seconds you will have hit the enemy 3 times, reducing their armor by 45

You should always be spamming Hate Spike to proc your Trinity Force, dealing a total of 288 base damage instead of 192 base damage every 2 seconds

In 10 seconds your damage will be about (1 second = 1.7408 attacks, each attack dealing 192 damage)
(In 10 seconds you will deal 17 attacks, dealing 3342 damage)

Because Black Cleaver removes 45 armor, you can count this towards their defenses.

10 seconds isn't really 'sustained' so here are more examples:

3 seconds = 1002.7008 damage (not included Trinity Force procs)
>>: 3 seconds = 768 + 288 = 1056 damage every 3 seconds (included Trinity Force procs)

4 seconds = 1337 damage (not included Trinity Force procs)
>>: 1152 + 288(*2) = 1728 damage (included Trinity Force procs)

This demonstrates that the build does deal sustained damage when using Trinity Force and burst damage when using Lich Bane

Proceeding, with Lich Bane you have 162 AD
With Black Cleaver your AS will be 1.4144 at level 18
Every attack you reduce the enemy's armor by 15, so in around 2.15 seconds you will have hit the enemy 3 times, reducing their armor by 45.


In 10 seconds your damage will be about (1 second = 1.4144 attacks, each attack dealing 162 damage)
(In 10 seconds you will deal 14 attacks, dealing 2291 damage)

Because Black Cleaver removes 45 armor, you can count this towards their defenses.

10 seconds isn't really 'sustained' so here are more examples:

3 seconds = 687 damage (not included Lich Bane procs)
>>: 3 seconds = 458 + 578 = 1036 damage every 3 seconds (included Lich Bane procs)

4 seconds = 1337 damage (not included Lich Bane procs)
>>: 458 + 578(*2) = 1635 damage (included Lich Bane procs)
---

From these basic tests, you can assume that Lich Bane is better overall.

However, there are additonal stats from Trinity Force such as the HP/MP, movement speed, Critical Strike (which is a crazy thing to add into the damage so it's left out) and a passive that has 25% chance to slow.

I have a subsection in my "Items" section explaining the different choices.

This theorycrafting has proved your theory that my guide will lack in damage is false.

Thank you!
- Shiikan.

no, really... wtf is this? this eve's guide isn't ap, isn't ad, yet isn't hybrid either, isn't a support nor on-hit, nor offtank, nor tank... really, you mixed **** with fries and ate them. plus look at those last results. yeah. positive every game, as well as lost every game.

"The easiest way to kill magicians is to be sure that they have little to no mana. No mana means no fighting back, and an easy kill (as long as they don't have flash!)" - yeah, kill vladimir should be really easy! thank you!

please just tell me what you want with this. your AAs will do ****ty damage and so will your abilities, and you will be squishy as ****. is this ap carry? ad?

but really, it makes me sad to see builds like these on #2 simply because they're huge and "beautiful".


I can tell you didn't even try it considering that it does work and instead of raging about it you could at least specify parts that you found were incorrect or therefor wrong.

Yes Vladimir doesn't have mana but that's a given and it was meant for more general selections of champions.

Damage wise, actually you do a lot of damage with Trinity Force and The Black Cleaver. Wit's End will keep you surviving VLADIMIR (Wow, reoccurring theme!) and OTHER MAGICIANS. Trinity Force also adds HP and MP for sustain.

Chalice of Harmony or my OTHER SITUATIONAL ITEMS INCLUDING SURIVABILITY AND DAMAGE ITEMS, will help you stay alive and not be squishy while still DOING DAMAGE.

Carry-wise, EVELYNN IS NOT A CARRY, Evelynn would be an assassin. Please, understand terminology and champions.

My abilities by end game typically do about 200 damage per hate spike and a nice 700 damage Ravage along with procs from Trinity Force increasing auto-attack output damage immensely. As an assassin, you're not going to be charging in but entering from the side picking off squishies with low health that you can burst down.

Why not just play AP Burst Eve? Because after Ravage you have literally nothing. Therefor, this way your autoattacks do hurt, (which is how I know you didn't try it,) and you can still get kills while, WOW I DON'T KNOW? Having fun.

Games are about having fun, not always winning, love.

ALSO, when did I say "POSITIVE EVERY GAME"
That's a completely different Evelynn guide.

And judging by your account, everything you do is negatively impacting other guides because you're too scared to show yourself on your real account in fear of "revenge votes."

You're really, really, low.

Really low.
