The easiest lane to gank is top, especially with easy victims like
Nasus or
Darius. Those champions are very good with Eve but not so good against her. Enter the lane from your top tower and move into the side brush. Ganking from tri-brush is not recommended, because the tower will spot you early and you lack the crowd control to keep the enemy out of the range of his tower. Let your top laner initiate a little trade, so some defensive abilities are already on cooldown. Then come in and burst the enemy down. Activate
Dark Frenzy when he tries to run or when you get blocked by minions.
Second is the mid lane. Counterganks are more likely in the mid lane, so it's good to have one side brush warded. Again, position yourself behind the enemy from the wraiths camp, let your laner initiate, then join the party. Don't use
Ignite early when the enemy has some easy escapes. When
Flash was used or the enemy's hp is low, take your or the opponents wraiths and then gank again.
Sometimes your counterjungling ward or some lane ward will spot the enemy jungler. If he is nearby, quickly check his health bar and pay him a visit at his next jungle camp while he is fighting and has some abilities on cooldown.
Maokai,
Xin Zhao or
Nasus will happily give you a kill. This resets
Dark Frenzy and you are out before the enemy laners can react. Whenever the enemy laners tries to chase you, your team should follow them.
I generally don't like ganking bot lane as much, especially when they ask for it after having been poked down. It's difficult to sneak up behind the enemy and when you succeed, your carry and support are often unable to follow up the initial damage. When my bot lane consists of
Ezreal and
Soraka, I don't even try to gank. Having
Varus/
Leona or
Ashe/
Zyra makes ganking bot lane much easier. Remember that
Sight Wards will reveal you when you are inside a brush and close to an enemy champion.
After a successful gank, push the lane into the tower quickly and hit it a couple of times. Taking towers early gives a lot of gold to your team members and frees a champion to pressure another lane, forcing the enemy to react or lose the next tower.
