Trying to learn Eve.

[quote=MrBucketz]I keep hearing she's UP, easily hard-countered, etc. I don't care. I like playing her, I've had a blast in the 3 days I've played her, I'm not that great at it, but I'm trying to learn. So far I have been building her as a straight AP nuke, sheen, mobility, rabadons, lichbane. Trouble I've had is tanky-dps types like garen, I feel USELESS against em, Like they just ignore me pretty much, my burst cant take em down. I know AD builds are popular. Any advice on how I should be building? Or any other general Eve tips? I wanna learn, or if anyone likes to mentor a new Eve, I'd love it. Thanks[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]She's not UP. She's banned quite frequently in ranked now. I won't argue AP vs AD - they both have their merits, as does tanky DPS - but you ideally want to shut down the enemy carries and jungle as hard as you can, letting your own carries snowball, leading them to deal with enemy tanky DPS instead of you.[/quote]

[quote=MrBucketz]Do you think its pretty pointless to play Eve then below summoner level 30 without runes since she can't jungle? And without coordinated teams?[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]You almost always want to roam eve. Smite+Revive was a gimmick that was really just a predecessor to roam Eve. There are better junglers than her, so what you really want to abuse is her presence. An Eve who is visible in a lane means that she's not in your own - that makes any threat she poses completely gone. On the other hand, an Eve who you can't see may be right next to you, getting ready to stun you and set up a Flash+ult combo for that Annie you've been beating in lane. Runes won't make a huge difference when you roam. Coordination obviously helps a lot but when you ping an enemy right next to you, it's pretty clear that you're going to stun them and your teammate is going to move in for the kill. Eve is much stronger in solo queue than against premades.[/quote]

[quote=Ya1232]Eve is pretty much the KSing whore. When you play here you better be a god damn Pokemon and sit in tall grass. Venture out and stun someone and pop back into the bushes. They come in after you, stealth out and into another pile of tall grass. You really want to go for kills if: 1. You got fed like nuts 2. They are low HP and you can pretty much 2 shot them. 3. Team fights you pick off the low HP ones, but its better for premades so your team gets them low and then moves to the next allowing you to kill them. You have to use your stealth and stun early game to play mind games with them. Scare them into running when they see you and forcing them into playing SUPER defensive.[/quote]
