Amumu vs Evelynn

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Amumu should focus on surviving early jungle pressure and avoid early river fights without lane priority against Evelynn.
Prioritize controlled first clears and look to convert level 6 into strong objective plays and teamfights using (Q) and (R).

Jungle Plan

Prioritize full clears that lead into ganks where your (Q) can be followed up by laners' CC to maximize gank threat.
Fight for first Scuttle only if your lanes have priority and can assist; otherwise, secure river control through vision and avoid direct fights.
Counter-invade Evelynn's camps when lanes can respond quickly to punish her low early dueling and force her off camps before level 6.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 where Evelynn's charm (W) and stealth can lead to lethal picks.
Be cautious contesting objectives like Dragon early if Evelynn has lane priority and can flank with camouflage.
Low-health clears or forced smite fights can be dangerous; only contest if you have vision and lane support.

Early game

Start with a full clear or three-camp route toward a lane with crowd control ready to follow (Q).
Use defensive wards on jungle entrances to protect against Evelynn's early invades, especially around level 3.
Avoid contesting early Scuttle if nearby lanes lack priority to prevent losing health or camps.

Power spikes

At level 6, Amumu's (R) combined with (Q) creates strong lockdown for teamfights and objective control; use this to force grouped fights.
Evelynn's power spike at level 6 with camouflage and (R) requires you to respect her flank angles and avoid isolated fights.
Amumu's medium clear speed means you should leverage your tankiness and CC rather than duel Evelynn early.

Win conditions

Use your (Q) and (R) to force grouped fights around Dragon, Rift Herald, or Void Grubs after level 6.
Deny Evelynn free farm and force her off camps through counter-jungling when your lanes have priority.
Track Evelynn's pathing to set up counter-ganks and use your tank frontline to enable your team to capitalize on your crowd control.
