This... is Evelynn, Agony's Embrace.
Eve lures in her prey with the promise of love... then subjects her victims to unspeakable torment.
Welcome to the Evelynn Champion Spotlight.
Evelynn's passive is Demon Shade.
After leaving combat for a few seconds, Evelynn is enveloped by Demon Shade.
If Evelynn's health is low, she'll recover it quickly while this ability is active.
Starting at level 6, Demon Shade also grants camouflage.
This makes Evelynn hidden from view to all except nearby enemy champions, control wards, and turrets.
Evelynn's Q is Hate Spike.
She lashes out, dealing damage to and marking the first enemy hit.
The target receives additional damage from Evelynn's next few attacks or abilities.
If the marked target is a monster, a significant chunk of Hate Spike's cooldown will be refunded.
Even if Hate spike misses, Evelynn can recast the ability up to three times to fire a line
of spikes through the nearest enemy or whatever Evelynn is currently attacking.
The spikes deal full damage to all enemies beyond the first.
Evelynn's W is Lust Dust.
She temporarily curses a target champion or monster.
Hitting the cursed target with her basic attacks or abilities will expunge the curse, damaging
and significantly slowing the target, and refunding Lust Dusts's mana cost.
If Evelynn leaves the curse untouched for a few seconds, Lust Dust will charm the target
instead of slow and shred their magic resistance.
If the target is a monster, the length of the charm will be increased and the spell
will deal even more damage.
Casting Lust Dust does not break Demon Shade, but it does show your opponent a little indicator
that points to your location when the W charge completes.
Evelynn's E is Whiplash.
She impales an enemy with her lashers, applying on-hit effects and dealing damage
as a percent of the target's maximum health.
Evelynn is then granted a short burst of movement speed.
Entering Demon Shade resets Whiplash's cooldown and empowers its next cast.
When casting Empowered Whiplash, Evelynn pulls herself to her target, deals additional damage,
and hits all enemies in a line through her target.
Evelynn's ultimate is Widowmaker.
She unleashes her demonic energy, becoming untargetable and cleaving enemies in front
of her before warping backwards.
This ability deals bonus damage to low-health enemies.
Targets vulnerable to the bonus damage from Widowmaker
will have a marker above their head, but this does not necessarily mean they'll die to it.
Evelynn is very reliant on mana for her clear, so it's a good idea to take blue buff early in your route.
Evelynn's got an agonizingly weak early game.
Her mana pool is limited, and before she unlocks Demon Shade's camouflage, her ganks are very telegraphed.
Before 6, she'll need extra help from laners with crowd control to pull off successful ganks.
Be mindful of how you use your Q when clearing camps.
Land the initial cast of Hate Spike on the biggest baddie so your subsequent casts deal bonus damage to it.
Try to maneuver the smaller critters in the camp into a line to make the most of all that
hate you've got pent up inside.
Once Eve hits level 6, though, she becomes a terrifying, invisible murder machine.
Keep opponents on their toes and emerge from the darkness when they've got no chance of escaping.
Evelynn's ultimate, is great for stealing, er... securing kills.
But you can even use it to do a spooky drive-by on dragon or baron.
It's also a great clutch defensive tool for evading enemy skillshots or getting over walls.
Surprise opponents by aiming it backwards to use it as a gap-closer.
Try not to blow it too early, though once it's gone, you've got no reliable way to get back in.
Once you enter the late-game, Evelynn's job is to end fights before they start.
Look for clueless supports in the jungle to evaporate, or just pop out of nowhere and
1v1 their squishies when they think they're safe.
After dumping all your damage on your primary target, it's ok and often optimal to weave
in and out of combat to re-enable Demon Shade and Empowered Whiplash.
This way you'll get even more damage out of it and regain your cooldowns to eviscerate
your next target.
