Her current problem is only her dependency on items. Doing great with Sheen isn't really a reliance, just to clear that up.

Evelynn needs tanky items so she won't blow up, hybrid dmg because otherwise they just build to counter you, some AS, Sustain, and a Slow like Rylai's or Trinity Force. She can be built and played many different ways though, so pinning her as a hybrid champion isn't exactly the best way to look at her.

Being reliant on money you have to get you money you need via kills/farm isn't a good spot to be in.

Riot is giving her QoL buffs everywhere. The passive buff was needed, the W buff makes me run faster more often which is always nice, and it means you can actually use it inbetween jungle camps. Range buff on E is just a neat buff to have. Mana cost reduction on Q means it's probably Okay to max early in the game because it won't give you mana problems, but that's a buff to laning Evelynn or AP Evelynn in general. As to her Ult CD... Well, she'll be like Rengar, a really big starting CD, a small ending CD.
