I've played over 300 games as Eve since her rework and in some games I'd do ridiculously good or ridiculously bad. The reason? Pink wards...stupid pink wards, everyone claiming Eve was OP before nerf weren't using pink wards efficiently, the philosophy behind Evelynn was to rush in, get your kill, rush out, but that was countered very nicely with good warding, giving you the edge to slow her forcing the W and not letting her escape.

Now? She doesn't feel like an assassin at all, As the OP mentionned, the change to the Ult killed her ability to get a kill before stepping into team fights and when it drags on you're out of mana faster than any other assassin class.

I'm unhappy with the changes because I don't feel it was tackled the right way, she needed tweaking, but not the whole change in her playstyle which doesnt feel as smooth.

She's still viable to pick, but probably not in high Elo games, curious about the stats after nerf over there.

Bump. I don't understand the max to current percentage. I really think she was in a comfortable spot where she was, now she can barely do any damage if her enemy is already low, the shield won't give enough in a 1v1 situation, and the cooldown is too long to roam, which is kind of the point on Evelynn. Overall this nerf has actually made me stop playing her because I just get angry that I have no killing potential anymore.

"extremely viable" is another way of saying overpowered.

All she needs now is a little bit of minimum damage added to her ult so that its not completely useless against low life enemies. But a 25% MAX damage AOE was too much combined with the rest of her kit.

For some odd-reason, I couldn't stop laughing when I came across this comment, (although I completely agree with Eve's nerf.)

This.

Except i agree with the OP. They wen't to far with the mana nurf. The ult nurf was needed but at the same time the change in how it did damage was not.

Eve RARELY starts a fight. Generally she comes in after the tank has started the fight or the support or something. Everyone else will be spamming their AoE abilities at the same time eve tries to ult leaving her ult to start at maybe around 80% or lower.

She has a speed boost so the range was too long but seriously the damage change was a little over kill. And the mana nurf was WAY too far.

I build RoA on her now for MANA so that blue buff actually helps now. Nurf the damage it did before nurfing mana cost.
