Strategy is highly subjective and may become outdated without any notice. Because of this, the League of Legends Wiki has decided to retire strategy pages and would recommend using other platforms (such as YouTube) to find guides. For more information visit this thread.

Tips[]
- Playing As
Evelynn
- While stealthed, pay attention to when you are (near) being detected by enemy champions. This is identified by the glowing yellow eye over nearby enemy champions.
- You are far more reliant on your level six power spike than most junglers. Focus more on farming instead of ganking until you reach that point.
- Running after marked targets to use Whiplash is ill-advised. Unless you are unable to line up a clear shot through their minions, Hate Spike is the better option.
- Playing Against Evelynn
- Purchasing Control Wards can help you detect Evelynn's location in order to prepare for her ambushes.
- Evelynn's stealth is not available to her until level 6, and Allure needs time to set up. this makes her susceptible to early invades.
- If you suspect Evelynn is about to ambush one of your teammates, let them know by pinging the minimap and typing in chat.
- Demon Shade is an out-of- combat effect, so when she casts Allure (indicating she is nearby and preparing to attack) you can fire large area spells like Volley into her possible gank paths to cripple her.
- Evelynn can still be affected by wards as long as you place them in areas where she will enter combat i.e. next to her jungle camps.
Playstyle[]
- Ability Usage
- Demon Shade
- When low on health, wait for the passive health regeneration of Demon Shade to heal you as much as possible before using your potions. It is really effective on low levels (as it will cause you to regen enough health to clear a camp just by waiting) and on high ones as it will be able to heal you for (almost) whole health.
- Hate Spike
- This ability deals good damage to a target marked by Hate Spike, and is also your main tool to clear jungle camps.
- Allure
- This ability is good for ganking a pushed lane. Unless the target has a lot of mobility, triggering Allure shouldn't be too difficult.
- Trigger Allure with Hate Spike, which has more range, instead of Whiplash.
- This ability deals huge damage to monsters after marking them for 2.5 seconds. Use this ability on the camp's main monster, wait 2.5 seconds and trigger the mark, the monster will also be charmed for a longer duration.
- Pay attention to the heart and the sounds. You will hear characteristic sound after the heart fills.
- Whiplash
- This ability should always be used as its empowered version, as it deals about 50% more damage and allows Evelynn to dash to her target.
- Whiplash is most effective while using its full range - possibly hitting all the targets on its way which is very useful while clearing camps like Krugs or Raptors or during teamfights. Remember it only works for its empowered version.
- This ability should always be used as its
- Last Caress
- This ability can be used to either espace, chase a target down or execute a low-health target.
- If you trying to kill your target, always use it when they're marked as below 30% health, as the ability will deal twice as much damage.
- Last Caress is a great option when you wanna steal the dragon/baron or when enemies are trying to steal yours. Smite + ultimate combo will deal great damage and allow you to escape easily after taking the objective.
Runes[]
- Electrocute can easily be triggered with Spikes, it will add to your burst damage.
- Sudden Impact is further increasing your burst damage. It may be triggered:
- with Empowered Whiplash;
- by dealing damage to enemy champions after appearing from passive camouflage;
- by dealing damage to enemy champions after using ultimate.
- Cheap Shot is a situational rune to be picked instead of Sudden Impact, that can be triggered by expunging a marked enemy champion.
- Eyeball Collection is what you usually wanna go for as you want to get as much damage as possible.
- Ravenous Hunter increases sustain in the jungle.
- Relentless Hunter increases your mobility, and helps you track down your targets.
- Ultimate Hunter greatly decreases Last Caress' cooldown which is very important during mid and late game and allows you to gank more often and more easily.
- Waterwalking helps in roaming between lanes for an ambush.
- Absolute Focus will increase your damage as your passive will heal you for needed 70%. Assuming no bonus health, it will take 129 AP (+26 AP per level) from other sources for the passive to heal Evelynn till 70% hp. Remember that you want to go for one shots during mid or late game. This rune makes it easier and will allow you to use it all the time. Note that, combined with Demon Shade, this rune indirectly discourages getting any bonus health.
Items[]
- As a jungler, Evelynn wants to be built as a burst mage, buying ability power, magic penetration and mobility.
- Jungle items: Stalker's Blade or Skirmisher's Sabre alongside Runic Echoes.
- For potions Refillable Potion, and possibly upgrade it to Hunter's Potion.
- For boots Sorcerer's Shoes or Boots of Mobility if you lack mobility.
- The items you generally want to go for: Void Staff, Liandry's Torment, Lich Bane, Hextech Protobelt-01, Rabadon's Deathcap, Morellonomicon.
- Example full build: Stalker's Blade with Runic Echoes, Lich Bane, Morellonomicon, Rabadon's Deathcap, Sorcerer's Shoes and Mejai's Soulstealer from early The Dark Seal, but if you didn't manage to get stacks you can go for Zhonya's Hourglass or Banshee's Veil if the game is tough.
- After completing your Runic Echoes, an early Haunting Guise increases your damage output.
