Nunu & Willump vs Evelynn

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Nunu & Willump's superior early clear speed and (W) gank engage to pressure Evelynn's weak early jungle presence.
Focus on objective control by leveraging (Q) plus Smite to secure dragon and Herald before Evelynn reaches level 6 stealth power.
Avoid isolated fights where Evelynn's charm (W) and stealth can punish; instead, coordinate with lanes for numbers advantage and counter-ganks.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize ganking over dueling; use (W) from fog to surprise overextended lanes and chain CC with (E) to secure kills.
Convert successful ganks into immediate dragon or Rift Herald starts, especially when Evelynn shows on opposite side of the map.
Maintain river control and vision denial to limit Evelynn's stealth approach angles and force her into reactive farming.

Danger windows

Early invade attempts without lane support risk losing to Evelynn's counter-invades; avoid isolated low-health clears near enemy jungle.
Isolated river fights before first Scuttle spawn are risky if Evelynn's lanes lack priority; she can capitalize on your overextension.
Post-6 Evelynn flanks from fog with charm (W) and stealth can punish poor vision or lane overextensions; maintain vision control and lane awareness.

Early game

Start with a fast full clear using (Q) to maintain health and tempo, then path to river for early Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority.
Contest first Scuttle only if your lanes can move first and deny Evelynn vision to prevent her safe post-6 flank.
Avoid invading Evelynn early unless lanes can support, as she is vulnerable pre-6 but can be punished if caught alone.

Power spikes

First dragon or Herald spawn: use (Q) plus Smite to secure objectives quickly after a gank and force Evelynn into unfavorable fights.
Level 6: layer (R) zone control after (W) knockup or allied CC to punish Evelynn caught without her charm or stealth advantage.
Evelynn's level 6 stealth and charm (W) create pick threat; respect her post-6 flank potential by keeping vision and lane priority.

Win conditions

Use fast clears and (W) ganks to build early map pressure, forcing Evelynn to farm defensively and denying her jungle tempo.
Secure early dragon and Rift Herald with (Q) plus Smite after successful ganks to snowball objective leads.
Deny Evelynn safe farming and flank angles by controlling river vision and coordinating with lanes for counter-ganks and objective fights.
