I've got no idea where I should invest mine. Udyr looked more complex and timing-reliant than I thought before I tried him and my top/jungle pool could be expanded, but Talon was fun too, I liked him more than LB and I feel I could learn a lot from assassin-type champs (my knack is being able to run in and just refuse to die), but getting to train mid is a pain in drafts unless you're first pick (and meh Talon is more of a counterpick) and there are tons of other mids that I already own and should train/dust off (Morg, Viktor, Ori, Xerath, Gragas).
What doooooo~

I remember reading on here a while back that if you learn to play Udyr in the jungle and can gank well with him, then ganking with any other jungle is no trouble at all.

I've been playing Udyr top mostly though, easily my best and favorite top lane hero

It's true. Out of most competitive junglers, (Nautilus, Shyvana, Maokai, Mundo, Lee Sin, Nocturne etc.) Udyr has one of the weakest overall gap closers in the early game. 15% for 2 seconds actually doesn't move you all that far. The hardest part of ganking is getting onto your target. Once you're on top of them, they're generally screwed unless they're pretty much under tower.

Yes, Mundo's generally going to be alot better late game, but Shyvana is alot stronger earlier and you cant discount Burnouts intense speed boost early game.

Some people will say No though, but I believe both have their places

i honestly cannot possibly wrap my head around this eve can win lanes claim.

Going through all the posts, it essentially boils down to Eve can win lanes 'cause she doesn't take minion damage while the other guy does. But the thing is, Eve herself barely does shit for damage either. Not to mention she's squishy as fuck cause of having the lowest base stats in the game. If your strategy for winning lanes is hoping that your minions will outdamage the other champion you're gonna have a bad time.

She's NOT squishy when you get +20 armor/mres from runes and go 21 into defense. She's also not squishy starting a dorans shield

she does decent damage with the +12 damage she gets from runes/masteries as well. she uses minion aggro to her advantage it lets her auto attack the enemy every time that they try to get cs. if they respond they start taking 68+ dps from the minions on top of eves autos. and if they respond eve has so much health and armor that she will naturally win the trades at level one. At the very least it forces them to not get much cs or burn all potions early until they hit lvls 2 or 3 so they can potentially beat eve in the trade while she camps inside the minion wave.

the 0 damage from minions also allow her to perfectly freeze the lane at no risk since she can just tank every minion shot right outside of turret range.

I once won a game where we were 5-20 behind in kills, clearly everyone who loses games with a disadvantage is just bad.

I am pretty sure that one occasion of a thing happening is not "empirical evidence". You need more data to have empirical evidence, this is just an anecdote. Not discounting it for what it is, though.

To be completely honest it wouldn't even matter if someone would win or lose 1n1 solo top vs him.

What would matter is showing a solid winrate at a 'decent' elo over 50+ games. Oh well.

the 0 damage from minions also allow her to perfectly freeze the lane at no risk since she can just tank every minion shot right outside of turret range.

She's squishy when she has one of the lowest base hp armor mres stats and stat growth out of every melee champ in the game. Having 60 armor doesn't really do much for you when you barely have 500 hp even with dshield. Resists scale multiplicatively off of your health, so when you don't have much health all that armor ain't going to do much. Not to mention if you start with dshield your sustain is going to be pretty crap cause of no potions and no innate sustain.

Eve starts the game with 51 AD, which is lower than every other solo top champ in the game. If you get +12 damage from runes/masteries how are you also going to get the +20 armor/mres you listed earlier? Minions do decent damage, sure, but no competent top laner is going to sit in the middle of a creep wave and let every single one of your creeps whack them unless they know they can kill you.

You're also completely neglecting the fact that w/e advantage you're accruing with runes is likely to be matched or nullified by your opponent's runes/masteries.

Your argument essentially boils down to you winning lanes because of runes/masteries and minions doing damage for you, which sounds very crappy to me. Show a replay or vod or even a screeshot of a ranked eve win and I'll believe you.

Eve has 414 base 86 per level. Dshield gives 120 hp. At level 1 with dshield she has 620.

I forgot to add the growth per level. Even with 620 hp at level 1 how are you going to overcome no sustain?

Also, just to humor you guys. Eve starts with 16.5 armor. Assuming +20 armor from runes/masteries AND +10 armor from dshield you walk into lane with 46.5 armor which is shit low for a melee solo top champ.

...the people who don't have sustain top usually wreck with burst. Think Jarman or Pantheon. Now compare their burst to Eves. =/

You forgot the defensive masteries he explicitly said that he would be getting. One of those is +30 hp. I actually forgot to include the hp per level mastery as well.

You will have like 20 hp5 from masteries and doran shield. Also that amount of armor isn't all that low... 3-4 armor difference isn't really anything huge



Btw I'm not saying it will work just saying that you shouldn't just assume things. There actually are evelynn mains in the 2000s

Well, with Malphite popping everywhere... who can beat him, or at least go even in lane, appart from casters like Kennen/Vlad (and I assume Swain)? Hybrid damage? Burst champs (Wukong has a good %armor reduc but he needs to use his E and aa to make use of it so Malph's E still make him worthless)?

Evelynn Top going tanky:

6 AD marks 3 AD quints
3 Armor Marks
9 Armor Seal
6 Armor Glyph
3 Mres/lvl Glyph

vs physical damage tops

and
5 AD marks 3 AD quints
3 Mres Marks
2 Armor Seals
7 Mres Seals
9 Mres Glyphs

vs Magical Damage tops

25 and 5 in offense in defense provides:
3 Damage
+10 damage to turrets
Exhaust Mastery (-10 armor + Mres)

3 armor
3 Mres
3hp/5
12 Hp/lvl
30 HP
-2 damage taken
-2 minion damage taken
-1.5% damage taken
-3% Aoe damage taken
3% bonus hp and 10% cc reduction

So at lvl 1 with dorans shield eve has 672 hp
18.5 hp/5
Either 36 armor and 58 Mres Or 52 Armor and 38 Mres depending on matchup
67 Damage
