Introduction - About me
Hello everyone, I am Insightful a challenger player since s10 in the EUW server, I'm mostly known for being a karthus/evelynn player and since I've already written a guide on karthus, people have been asking me for an evelynn guide and this is it, I have about 3million+ mastery points on the champion across all my accounts combined and I've been rank 1 evelynn in EUW multiple times, and recently I've hit challenger with a modest 63% winrate on it. Hope you like it


Champion introduction - Evelynn
Evelynn
Evelynn is an assassin mostly played in the jungle, she's not hard mechanically to learn but her passive can be very hard for begginers to take the full potential of.
She's the perfect champion for those who like to ambush and a less team reliable playstyle.
Pros/Cons
Code:

Pros

healthy clear
semi-fast clear
good ganks
very good scaling
global map pressure post 6
very good to play sidelanes

Cons

weak early game
vulnerable to invades
hard to play teamfights
has a lot of bad matchups
Abilities
Demon Shade
Evelynn's passive is for sure the most unique passive in the game. It keeps you healthy at any stage of the game and post 6 you have permanent stealth. This is your biggest advantage as an assassin since your champion doesn't really have dashes or an escape tool, the more you play her the better you'll use her passive.
Hate Spike
Her Q is divided in 4 parts. The first Q is a skillshot who will increase the damage of your next 3 abilities to your enemies, it's very important that you hit early or you'll probably lack the damage to kill someone, the next Qs are just non targeted spikes to complement the extra damage that you'll do in case you hit it. This is the skill you max first.
Allure
Evelynn's charm is a very unique skill,2.5 seconds after you cast it, you can reactivate it to charm the person,if you do it earlier, it will simply be a slow. This is so broken when trying to gank someone since if you can proc it, it's an undodgeable cc for champs who can't get out of your range. You max this 2nd.
Whiplash
This is basically where evelynn's burst comes on from in the later stages of the game, you have a melee dash that always chases the person, very good to use with your charm since you can chase people if they flash away. You max this 3rd.
Last Caress Arguably one of the most broken ultimates of the game. You have an AoE Crit who's also an escape, usually you want to use it after dealing damage with all your basic abilities, since it will crit if the target is below 30% hp. you can also use it to reposition yourself if you get caught or even as a gap closer if you use it backwards.
Summoner Spells

SUMMONER SPELLS
-
FLASH: No secret here, you always take flash because it's the best tool to escape and soemtimes to go in.
Runes
  • Electrocute: Evelynn is an assassin who wants to get in and get out, so eletrocute is the perfect choice for her.
  • Sudden Impact:This rune gives you a small burst of flat magic penetration after a dash which sinergizes perfectly with evelynn's E.
  • Eyeball Collection: This is usually the best choice among these 3 since all the others take longer to stack and aren't really that useful on evelynn.
  • Relentless Hunter: In this rune you'd either go relentless or ultimate hunter, however soloq games are often a chaos, which means the extra movement speed out of combat will help you rotate the map better and look for better opportunities to grab kills, it's also very nice to chase down oponnents while invisible.
  • Absolute Focus: This rune has perfect synergy with evelynn's passive since she's always 70%+ hp, you always get full value out of the extra AP and she has insane scaling aswell.
  • Gathering Storm: Like I said earlier, evelynn benefits a lot from flat AP due to the scaling of her abilities, which makes this the best choice for her.
Items
Night Harvester
I know a lot of people will argue that rocketbelt is better, but for me night harvester just feels better. You lose a bit of damage early game but you compensate with utility (ms and cdr), rocketbelt can feel a bit clunky to combo sometimes for me.
Mejai's Soulstealer
This is the perfect item for evelynn, it gives her everything she needs. A lot of AP, movement speed and a bit of health. It's a must have in any game, she's probably the best user of this item since her passive gives her autonomy to choose when to fight in a lot of situations
Rabadon's Deathcap
After mejais you'll want a deathcap, it will give you the amount of AP you need to one shot anyone on the map, and it's really good insurance in case you lose your mejai stacks since you'll still have a lot of AP, and even better if you're ahead.
Mejai's Soulstealer
This is the perfect item for evelynn, it gives her everything she needs. A lot of AP, movement speed and a bit of health. It's a must have in any game, she's probably the best user of this item since her passive gives her autonomy to choose when to fight in a lot of situations
Void Staff
Once the enemy starts stacking magic resistance just get void staff, it's the perfect item to break through it with your huge amounts of ability power.
Banshee's Veil
Now that you have all your core items, your last item choice it's either a defensive or offensive item, you need to be able to read the situation of the game, I personally love banshee's veil on evelynn, it's very cheap, gives 80 AP and it can help you go in and out without putting yourself at too much risk
Lich Bane
If you choose the offensive option, go for lich bane,it works just like mejais but with a nice passive to synergize with your E. You can also sell boots for this item in the ultra late game since it also gives you movement speed.
Early game pathing
Now that we've gone through the basics, let's focus on how you should be playing jungle with evelynn.
The first thing you want to do is always full clear, doesn't matter if you start red or blue, always full clear. The side of the map you choose to start on however depends on your judgement, usually you want to try to avoid the enemy jungler early so you can get at least 1 scuttle. You can also try to path towards the lane you're more likely to get a gank off, even if you have to flash for it, it's very worth to get kills/xp early on evelynn. You want to get your level 6 as fast as possible, so try not to overcomit to ganks and make sure you clear your camps asap until 6.

A small jungle clear tip that often goes unnoticed while playing evelynn is that you should never walk up to camps straight up with your charm, first use your 4 Qs and then in the 1-2 second cooldown window, you charm the camp, you do this because the charm takes 2.5 seconds to be activated on monsters, so if you go straight up you have to wait it out until you can atack it, while if you use it between Qs, you're saving 1 second of clear, it may not seem like much, but by the end of the clear, it's 4-5 seconds you saved which can be very important, specially the higher the elo you play in.
After 6 pathing
This is when the game begins for you as evelynn, at this stage of the game is when you want to start forcing things on the map, but always remember that evelynn is a late game champion, so focus on ganks that are easy and on the lanes that are consitently pushing or without summoner spells, those are the easy ganks you can abuse and go back to farm.
Usually if your ulti is on cooldown, I advice you to just farm your camps, you don't need to force anything without it.
More to add
I'm running low on creativity today, let me know what else you'd like me to explain here in this guide, you can post it in the comments or hmu in my twitch channel since I stream daily. https://www.twitch.tv/insightfulv
