Evelynn vs Kayn

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Evelynn should focus on surviving early clears and avoid early fights before level 6 due to low dueling and invade resistance.
Use stealth and post-6 camouflage to punish pushed lanes and isolated targets, leveraging high gank threat and AP scaling.

Jungle Plan

Full clear and path around river camps cautiously to avoid Kayn's faster clear and wall-path invades.
Contest Scuttle only when your lanes have priority and Kayn is visible on the opposite side.
Post-6, use stealth to cross-map and punish Kayn's isolated lanes or overextended targets before objectives.

Danger windows

Early game before level 6 is risky due to low invade resistance and Kayn's mobility and wall paths.
Isolated river fights are dangerous if lanes lack priority to support counter-ganks.
Forced smite fights on dragon or Rift Herald before Evelynn's power spike should be avoided to prevent losing objectives.

Early game

Prioritize a full, clean clear to reach level 6 safely without taking early invade risks.
Avoid contesting first Scuttle unless nearby lanes have priority to support counter-ganks.
Use control wards and sweepers to secure safe post-6 river paths for flanks rather than early river fights.

Power spikes

Evelynn spikes at level 6 with camouflage and (W) charm, enabling strong pick and flank potential.
Kayn's power spikes come after form transformation; respect his increased dueling and mobility post-form.
Evelynn should avoid early forced duels before level 6 when dueling is weak and Kayn's clear speed is higher.

Win conditions

Survive early jungle pressure and reach level 6 to unlock camouflage and pick potential.
Use stealth to flank and pick off isolated targets before major objectives to gain tempo and vision control.
Deny Kayn's scaling by counter-jungling safely when lanes have priority and forcing fights on your terms post-6.
