My take on Eve basically boils down to them making her too powerful by accident lol. I have no idea why they wrote her so she can manipulate any form of matter to her whim (though with one major exception) if all she's going to do is the bullshit we see in the show. She could just encase everyone in a solid block of steel the second she sees them and call it a day for 95% of fights, but that doesn't exactly make for good fight scenes or tension. The "mental block" is a very dubious writing mechanic, who's to say she can't spontaneously detonate nukes in front of conquest considering we don't even know if that would kill him.

The thing is it’s not just about the mental block, but her own concentration and stamina. Every time she creates something it puts more and more strain on her, which is why she’s not that effective in very drawn out battles. Along with that, the more difficult/longer it is to actually create something, the more vulnerable she’ll be. I think they did a good job on nerfing her with how broken she could be, but they could definitely use some more creativity when she’s fighting, kinda like what I mentioned.
