Evelynn Counters

The greatest champs globally to counter Evelynn include Kalista, Sivir, and Ezreal. These picks are all great at countering Evelynn with high win rates over 56%. Even if these Evelynn counter picks are not taken in your lane, it's not smart to choose her into these matchups. They will often crush Evelynn.

Yet, if the other team choses either Seraphine or Maokai, you should strongly think about picking her, as she easily wins against these champs with win rates over 53% against both ofthem.

Evelynn's strength comes from her all-in burst damage and ability to assassinate squishy enemy carries. Recognize her lethal potential and never leave your carries alone against her, especially once she has her Ultimate R unlocked.

Notably, Evelynn is weakest during early game play. As she cannot gank effectively until she reaches level six, use this time to outpace her and build up your defenses. She relies heavily on the enemies pushing up and spends significant time power farming.

Remember to invest in Control Wards. They are Evelynn's nemesis, and their effective placement can significantly hinder her ability to successfully gank. These wards can drastically restrict her movements, making it significantly more challenging for her to capitalize on her strengths.

Evelynn becomes significantly more vulnerable while her Ultimate R is on cooldown. Seize this opportunity to engage her, especially with a champion who has a lot of Crowd Control in their kit, as it limits her ability to escape.

As a mid-game predator, Evelynn excels at isolating and eliminating targets who are alone or low on health. Avoid wandering too far from your team during this phase of the game to minimize her opportunity to capitalize on isolated targets.

In the late game, it becomes more difficult for Evelynn to pick off targets as teams group together. Take advantage of this by remaining cohesive and attentive to your team's movements. Simultaneously, invest in defensive items to counteract Evelynn's assassination attempts.

If Evelynn gets ahead, it's crucial not to feed into her strength by overcommitting or isolating yourself. Even if she's ahead, you can still maintain the upper hand by wise positioning and constant communication with your team. Utilize her Necessary cooldowns and work around her invisibility to keep her in check.
