Im very sad however about the eve nerf, she was one of my favorite heros and i dont think she was OP at all. The think with eve is that if the enemy team works to counter you, you are almost useless, 1 oracles on the field on say a garen or chogath makes it difficult to even get any killz. In the past ive had really amazing games with eve carrying the team like 27-4 but i have had complete fail terrible games where the enemy team gets an oracles or a sight ward and i go like 2-10 because the other team knows how to work together to counter that hero. Also eve is one of those heros that doesnt really get that strong till late game and cant even really kill other heroes on her own untill late mid game. Eve is a team dependent hero, if the team supports her ganks then she does well, if the team cant follow up with your ganks you do terrible. now it will be really hard to even do good. Guess ill have to pick another hero to main with. (you should buff EZ! He needs some love!)
hello RIOT is this the guy that asked for a nerf on Rammus? because i will kick his butt with eve before this new patch arrives......

Upvoting for finally helping Heimerdinger.

Downvoting for nerfing Rammus, who rose to power not by receiving changes but by Riot Games nerfing everyone else around him.


Thats sad when the heroes that receive the LEAST developer attention end up the best heroes.

"OP tanks like Shen and Morde ..."

Shen is perfectly balanced, Morde isn't a tank. No CC and utility means he isn't a tank, just a very meaty caster.

Really, like Eve wasn't weak enough early game, so lets nerf her BASE stats? God **** it. Maybe people should learn how to buy wards.

Eve did do this to teams, force them to tower hug and all.

Its obvious you're not sure which direction to go with her since the major changes in the past that affect her are under observation. Her base stats however mean nothing late game.

Early game, she's totally team dependent for ganks if she's to make an early jump start.

Lane wise, she'd have to have a significant boost from Runes/Masteries to pose enough threat to her foes in the beginning when she has no real items to boost her stats. That lil ring you guys suggest for her may improve her health and AP a bit, but its real job is kind of killing cash flow, as only a tiny tiny tiny portion of the AP on it is used to boost her 2 damage spells.

Maybe increasing AP ratio's on the 1st rank of spells just a little bit in conjunction with reducing base stats will help with her already poor early game, to make this a bit fair.

Evelynn is often kind of forced to go into the jungle when people ward the lanes (which is relatively cheap and more reliable as a surprise factor than the Oracle's Elixer). By making jungling more of a chore than it already is, this really only serves to slow her leveling rate down when jungling early on, and increase how often she would have to rely on healing due to minion damage while farming.

I am interested to see how she will turn out with your nerfs.

But i'm really only screaming inside at the changes that should be made somewhere else within her functionality. Still, Evelynn has the look and feel of a less face-rolley champion compared to other big name champions like Garen or Pantheon. Perhaps her usage ratio will go down significantly after the patch, and her difficulty will go back up to where it should be. I've been kind of hoping for that for a while.

Thanks none the less, riot! Looking forward to patch day.
