Evelynn is established as a highly effective champion within the Runeterra region, characterized by explosive stat augmentation and high-tempo level-up sequences. Her reliance on a specific champion card makes her gameplay somewhat linear and dependent on draw consistency, but her potential for board control remains among the most reliable for mid-to-high difficulty encounters.
The Temporal Lockdown

Strategy

This build capitalizes on the champion's ability to level up multiple times in a single match. By repeatedly triggering board-wide stuns and rallies, the champion can effectively prevent the opponent from mounting an offensive while securing multiple attack tokens to finish the game quickly.
The Titanic Juggernaut
  • Starforged Gauntlets icon
    Power: If I'm in deck or in hand and Titanic, +1 Starting Mana. You can find Level 2 Champions when you Invoke or Manifest.
  • Luminous Orb icon
    +0|+3 and Sharpsight.
  • The Beast Within icon
    Power: Allies have Overwhelm, and if they have a subtype, +1|+1.

Strategy

By utilizing the additional health from Luminous Orb to reach the Titanic threshold, the champion gains a permanent mana advantage via Starforged Gauntlets. The Beast Within ensures that the massive stat bonuses provided by Husks are translated into actual Nexus damage through the Overwhelm keyword.
Other Relic Options
  • Siren's Call icon
    Power: Game Start: Create an Evelynn in hand. When you summon a Husk, it loses Immobile.
  • Succubus's Brand icon
    +1|+1 and when I kill a unit, summon a random Husk.
  • The Deceiver's Crest icon
    When I level up, create a copy of my champion spell in hand. It costs 0 this round.
Siren's Call is a high-value consistency tool that addresses the champion's core draw dependency. Succubus Brand is effective for aggressive scaling paths, while Deceiver's Crest offers additional board control by generating multiple zero-cost copies of the champion's signature spell during a sequence of level-ups.
Constellation
Investment should focus on reaching the 5-star milestone, as the additional starting mana fundamentally improves stabilization in high-difficulty content. The champion is functional at lower investment but requires higher levels to mitigate inherent draw inconsistency.
  • Icon for Peak of Ecstasy

    Peak of Ecstasy

    When you level up an ally champion, grant allies everywhere +1|+1.
  • Icon for Love Eternal

    Love Eternal

    +1 Starting Mana. The first time you kill an allied follower each round, create a Fleeting copy of it in hand.
  • Icon for Peak of Ecstasy II

    Peak of Ecstasy II

    When you level up an ally champion, grant allies everywhere +2|+2.
  • Icon for Biggledust Sprinkle

    Biggledust Sprinkle

    When you summon a created ally, grant it +1|+1.
    Review
    The additional stat bonuses for created allies are considered low-impact, as the core Husk mechanic already provides sufficient scaling for most encounters.
  • Icon for Manaflow

    Manaflow

    Game Start: Get a mana gem.
    Review
    This upgrade is highly impactful, allowing the champion to be deployed as early as the second round. This accelerates the scaling engine and provides critical defensive utility sooner.
  • Icon for Night's Kiss

    Night's Kiss

    When an allied Husk grants stats to an ally, it grants double the amount.
    Review
    The double-stat bonus for Husks offers a significant increase to the deck's power ceiling. However, it is often viewed as a non-essential upgrade since the champion typically secures the win before this level of scaling becomes necessary.
Gameplay Tips
  • Strategic Trigger Management
It is often optimal to pass the initial turn if the champion is not in the starting hand. This conserves the finite number of level-up triggers (capped at six) until the champion is present on the board to benefit from the keyword and stat transfers.
  • Fast-Speed Level-Ups
Use the champion's signature spell, Hate Spike, to destroy a Husk during the opponent's turn. This triggers a fast-speed level-up, allowing for a defensive board-wide stun or a sudden health boost to a blocker.
  • Prioritizing Level Milestones
Reaching champion level 20 is a critical requirement for consistency. The guaranteed champion draw upon summoning a support champion significantly reduces the risk of a session-ending failure caused by a poor opening hand.
  • Board Management and Timing
Ensure that at least one board slot remains open before playing a unit that generates a Husk. Effective play revolves around alternating between the champion's base and leveled forms to maximize the acquisition of diverse keywords.
