Evelynn Jungle starts in 5.6 (Trying to squeeze some viability out of her)

Asked by fakefetus on March 26, 2015

So I recently picked up Eve. Did some reading made a prelim build and gave her a run. My first impression? She's fully viable but takes a lot of positioning - Her only major flaw I can see is her start. She seems to be incredibly finicky for the first five levels - I was essentially wondering this.

Question: What runes/masteries do ya'll use for a fast start? Whether AD or AP just specify if ya'll don't mind -

I personally want to focus on a Hybrid build, but am mostly curious if anyone has any RECENT experiences with Eve's early jungle game that I can utilize or riff off of.

Lastly I know she's a bad pick - I want to try her out specifically for that reason. Cause it's fun to make **** like this work. More fun when you get to play off of peoples expectations.

I have played a ton of evelyn lately in the mid to late game she can blow someone up extremely easy as far as early jungle clear goes I usually go gromp-blue-red smiting group and red usually Vs blue you can just keep kiting it and mash Q whenever its up so if you can ignore your auto attacks and make it keep resetting its AA without hitting you it will be a pretty easy clear. I hope that made sense if it didn't you can friend me in game and I can show you what I mean

no kiting makes perfect sense with the q's cd. Thanks, I was using that tactic way too defensively should have just leaned on it entirely.

I've been playing her recently, which makes me happy because when the new jungle was made I was given the impression that she was useless. I go 21/9/0 with AD runes with ~7 armor/mr. Max your E first and take/smite krugs. Her sustain isn't nearly as awful as I remember but you get MOBA's pretty early on (possibly before you finish your jungle item, which should be trailbrazer w/ warrior) and her ganks are decent. What she lacks in CC she makes up for with a bit of damage and an ability to chase the enemy down. Ultis are super helpful as well. Hope I helped, and have fun. :)

EDIT: After that the only damaging item afterward you should get is BoRK, Tri, or Iceborne (BoRK for tanky team without a lot of damage such as naut, Tri for straight up damage, and Iceborne for a more AD team and for slows). Then you build tanky; Randuin's, Frozen Heart, and Veil/Visage should do ya good. I haven't played a lot of late game Evelynn so I might not be the best on later suggestions.
