Evelynn vs Shyvana

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Evelynn should focus on surviving early jungle pressure and avoid fighting Shyvana before level 6 due to weak early dueling and invade resistance.
Prioritize reaching level 6 to unlock camouflage and leverage high scaling and pick potential to control objectives and skirmishes.

Jungle Plan

Use full clears and avoid early invades until level 6 when Evelynn's camouflage enables safer counter-jungling and pick opportunities.
Contest river control and Scuttle Crab only when lane priority and vision allow safe setup to deny Shyvana's objective access.
After level 6, path through fog to flank pushed or isolated lanes, converting stealth pressure into dragon and Rift Herald control.

Danger windows

Early jungle invades around level 3 are dangerous due to Evelynn's weak dueling and Shyvana's fast clear speed.
Isolated river fights before Evelynn reaches level 6 are risky; avoid contesting without lane priority or vision control.
Forced smite fights near dragon or Rift Herald before Evelynn's stealth and burst are online can lead to losing objectives.

Early game

Start with a full clear to secure level 6 safely while avoiding low-health river paths vulnerable to Shyvana's faster clear and invade.
Avoid contesting first Scuttle Crab unless nearby lanes have priority to support counter-ganks.
Track Shyvana's pathing closely to anticipate her fast clears and avoid early river fights without lane assistance.

Power spikes

At level 6, Evelynn gains camouflage and high burst potential, enabling picks and objective control; use this to punish Shyvana's farming windows.
Shyvana spikes mid-game with dragon form and item power; Evelynn must respect her increased dueling and displacement threat.
Evelynn's AP scaling becomes a major threat post-6, so prioritize clean clears and vision to leverage stealth for picks and skirmishes.

Win conditions

Survive early jungle pressure and reach level 6 to unlock stealth picks that can snowball into objective control.
Use stealth to flank and pick off isolated targets, then convert pressure into dragon and Rift Herald control with lane priority.
Deny Shyvana free farm and delay her mid-game spike by counter-jungling safely and forcing her into reactive plays.
