AoE Master Evelynn

[quote=SuperJpg]Hey guys! Let me start off by saying I am not the best League of Legends player, but I am a Evelynn/jungle main. With the addition of Runeglaive in the latest patch I have been playtesting it in normals with a bunch of different champs in the jungle (ie Karthus, Diana, Evelynn, Ekko). When I originally tried Evelynn with Runeglaive I just felt considerably weaker than using a Warrior + Trinity Force combo (Maybe it comes down to not playing enough with it?). So I went back to my typical Eve build which always worked for me... Which is: "Warrior, Trinity Force, BotRK, Randuins, Mobi Boots, X". However, last night I decided to give another go at Runeglaive. I wasn't quite yet ready to give up on it. Instead of making a bruiser assassin Evelynn, I decided to take advantage of Runeglaive's AoE effect, and stack it with more AoE items. This way I could advantage of her stealth to help split push lanes and take turrets (Also AoE = More CS, and More CS = Profit). I started by building a Stalkers - Runeglaive (I could have probably built a Ranger's, but Stalkers is great for pre-6 ganks with Eve, and Rangers might be useless with all the AoE Effects). Then I picked up a Tiamat to reset AAs and to clear waves faster. Afterwards I finished Luden's for more AoE potential, then finished Hydra. Then instead of picking up BotRK, I started built Statik Shiv for the attack speed, movement speed and the additional AoE effect. So my AoE build now looked like this- "Runeglaive, Ludens, Ravenous Hydra, Statik Shiv, Mobi Boots" Every game was over before I could finish my build, so I will test it out in more games this week. But in the games I did try it, I had roughly the same KDAs, but was clearing waves and split pushing lanes like a boss! Also I felt I had more of an impact on teamfights. I would wait for the enemy team to group up, then I'll use Eve's ulti on 3-4 people, and then run in and do insane amounts of damage to the entire enemy team with all the AoE effects. Has anybody else tried this? I feel I might be onto something? Runeglaive AoE champs new meta? Haha just kidding. But I would think a typical build might look like this- "Runeglaive, Hydra, Luden's, Statik Shiv, Mobi Boots" I was thinking the last item could be a defensive item (ie Randuin's) or another offensive item. I think Luden's works with spellvamp, so maybe a Hextech Gunblade for more duelist potential? Btw I was running a 25/2/3 mastery page, and a typical Eve rune page with AP/AD/Armor runes.[/quote]

[quote=KatariFIRE]In my opinion... [[Runeglaive]] is not that good. Because if you want to go AOE pushing, you can use [[Iceborn Gauntlet]] instead. Iceborn give more solid mana pool and more effective spell-blade with good AOE slow. And it also provide some armor which [[Evelynn]] should have because she is melee champ. I think if you go AD, only [[Iceborn Gauntlet]] + [[Ravenous Hydra]] should be enough to clear wave like a boss.[/quote]
