How to Beat Briar as Evelynn (Jungle)

While statistically Evelynn is slightly stronger than Briar in the jungle, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Evelynn deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Briar deals mainly physical damage (72.55%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Briar, ranking 25th (versus 48th for Evelynn) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.3 versus 2.9) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Evelynn Jungle versus Briar Jungle matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Evelynn player to maintain constant pressure on Briar, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Evelynn tips:

  • Allure's arm time might seem long, but the Charm and magic resist shred put Evelynn at an exteme advantage so are worth the wait.
  • While stealthed, pay attention to when you are (near) being detected by enemy champions. This is identified by the glowing yellow and red eyes over nearby enemy champions.
  • If at low health, you can take advantage of Demon Shade's healing and Camouflage to return to the fight and surprise opponents.
