Tryndamere vs Evelynn

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

This jungle matchup is a tempo and invade duel where Tryndamere must pressure Evelynn's early clears to deny her level 6 stealth power spike.
Prioritize early river control and counter-ganks to punish Evelynn's low early dueling and invade resistance.
Focus on scaling through objective control and split pressure to leverage Tryndamere's stronger late-game dueling and side-lane impact.

Jungle Plan

Invade Evelynn's jungle early if lanes can provide cover to disrupt her clean clears and delay her level 6 spike.
Contest first Scuttle Crab aggressively when nearby lanes have priority to deny Evelynn vision and objective control.
Prioritize dragon and Rift Herald control after level 6 to leverage Tryndamere's stronger dueling and force Evelynn into reactive play.

Danger windows

Early game is risky when Evelynn can counter-invade or collapse with nearby lanes before Tryndamere reaches level 6.
Isolated river fights post-6 are dangerous due to Evelynn's stealth and charm, so avoid solo contests without vision or lane support.
Low-health clears or forced smite fights can be punished by Evelynn's burst; ensure health and cooldowns are sufficient before engaging objectives.

Early game

Start with a fast full clear to reach level 3 before Evelynn and secure early Scuttle if nearby lanes have priority.
Avoid early river fights unless nearby lanes can assist, as Evelynn's early dueling is weak but her post-6 pick threat is high.
Use vision and tracking to anticipate Evelynn's pathing and counter-invade or counter-gank around her first river move.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks Tryndamere's death denial (R), enabling him to commit to extended duels and punish Evelynn's lower early dueling power.
Two-item spike significantly boosts Tryndamere's crit damage and mobility, enhancing splitpush threat and dueling potential.
Evelynn's level 6 stealth and charm (W) create pick threat; respect this by maintaining vision and avoiding isolated fights without backup.

Win conditions

Convert early jungle pressure and successful invades into dragon and Rift Herald control to snowball map advantage.
Use superior dueling and death denial (R) to force Evelynn off isolated camps and deny her scaling.
Apply splitpush pressure post-two-item spike to draw enemy attention and create opportunities for team objectives or picks with vision control.
