Evelynn vs Darius

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Evelynn is a stealth assassin jungler with low early invade resistance and limited pre-6 pressure against Darius jungle.
Focus on clean full clears and avoid early river fights where Darius's all-in and pull threaten lethal trades.

Jungle Plan

Full clear efficiently and avoid predictable low-health river paths to reduce punish risk from Darius.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to back you up against Darius's early pressure.
After level 6, use camouflage to cross-map and punish overextended lanes or isolated carries instead of direct early fights.

Danger windows

High danger when Evelynn has low health on early clears and Darius can invade or force smite fights.
Isolated river fights before Evelynn hits 6 are risky due to Darius's pull (E) and all-in potential.
Objective setups where Darius's lanes have priority increase risk of counter-invades and forced unfavorable fights.

Early game

Prioritize a safe full clear to reach level 6 before contesting river or scuttle crab.
Avoid early invades or river skirmishes unless your lanes have strong priority to cover.
Use control wards and sweepers to secure safe post-6 flank paths rather than direct river contests.

Power spikes

Evelynn's major spike is level 6 when camouflage and (W) charm enable lethal pick potential; leverage this to punish Darius's limited mobility.
Respect Darius's level 6 (R) execute window which turns extended trades deadly; avoid river fights near this timing.
Darius's first bruiser item spike increases his durability and damage, so avoid forced fights after he completes it.

Win conditions

Survive early clears and avoid early river contests to reach level 6 safely.
Use post-6 camouflage to create picks on overextended or isolated targets, converting kills into objective control.
Track and counter-gank Darius's early pressure, then leverage superior gank threat and stealth to deny his scaling and snowball potential.
