Guide to Countering Evelynn as Vel'Koz

Tips for Playing as Vel'Koz against Evelynn

Be very careful about when to use Life Form Disintegration Ray. Many champions have abilities that can interrupt the spell.

Shooting Plasma Fission diagonally and splitting at maximum range allows you to hit opponents that are out of the range of the initial missile, but is more challenging to pull off.

When laning, use Void Rift to kill minions while building stacks of Organic Deconstruction on your opponent. You can then follow up with your other abilities.

Advice to Win Against Evelynn

Purchasing Vision Wards can help you detect Evelynn's location in order to prepare for her ambushes.

A large share of Evelynn's threat is in her charm, 'Allure.' Protect allies marked with 'Allure' or, if you are marked, make sure allies are between you and where Evelynn may attack from.

If you suspect Evelynn is about to ambush one of your teammates, let them know by pinging the minimap and typing in chat.
