Evelynn vs Nunu & Willump

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Evelynn must survive early invade pressure and avoid low-health river paths before level 6.
Prioritize full clears and use post-6 camouflage to punish overextended lanes and isolated carries.
This is a scale versus control matchup where Evelynn relies on stealth picks and objective-side flanks to win.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize clean full clears and avoid predictable river entries to reduce risk from Nunu's (W) gank engages.
Contest Scuttle only when your lanes can move first and deny Nunu's early objective setups.
Use post-6 stealth to cross-map and punish pushed lanes or isolated targets instead of direct early fights.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights early when Nunu can engage with (W) and follow up with CC.
Be cautious contesting objectives when Nunu has lane priority or can combine (Q) and Smite for strong secure.
Low-health clears make Evelynn vulnerable to invade; prioritize health and vision before river moves.

Early game

Start with a full clear to reach level 6 safely without being disrupted.
Avoid fighting for first Scuttle unless nearby lanes have priority and can support.
Track Nunu's pathing carefully to avoid his early gank angles and counter-invade when he commits to ganks.

Power spikes

Evelynn's level 6 camouflage unlocks high gank threat; use it to flank and pick off isolated enemies.
Nunu's first dragon or Herald spawn with (Q) plus Smite enables strong objective control; convert successful ganks into immediate objective pressure.
Nunu's level 6 (R) adds zone control; avoid fighting him in his CC chain and wait for opportunities to interrupt or flank.

Win conditions

Survive early jungle pressure and reach level 6 to unlock stealth pick potential.
Use camouflage to flank overextended or isolated enemies and create numbers advantages before objectives.
Convert picks into dragon or Rift Herald control by pressuring objectives immediately after successful ganks.
