Same advisor in the Draft (the MVP sheet applies it to your real draft) and in Ask Nexus, which explains the choice. On counters pages: the variant to take against each counter-pick.

Evelynn doesn’t win fights, she avoids them or breaks them before they begin. Her build converts stealth windows into guaranteed kills.
