Mobility junglers are sneakier than Eve

Anyone who can jump over walls can get almost as close as Eve without showing up on wards unless there are multiples down. Namely, Lee Sin, Rek'Sai, Vi, etc. Yet, while each of those champions has a huge amount of combat potential, Eve is given dumpster stats and an impossibly out of focus kit. Later, each of those champions scales to be at least moderately useful late-game while Eve falls off viciously hard.

If her stealth is barely sneakier in a gank than [insert mobility skill here], why isn't she allowed to have halfway decent combat?

Well, she had burst out of stealth, but then Riot decided that they didn't want her to be an Assassin.

Then they decided they didn't want her to be a Bruiser, either.

Now she's a mushroom.

I'll say what I usually say here. If Eve is going to keep her present Innate, Riot needs to make it so green wards detect her and she gets the '!' above her head to let her know that she has been seen. That would open up a HUGE amount of kit power.

Honestly at this point I would rather have post-Eve'd Eve back. She was gimped too, but at least she had real stealth and a slow before level 6.

IMHO opinion. They need to rework her stealth as a passive on her ultimate(to balance her from being broken op early snowball) and actually give her an identity/role so that she can be balanced properly.

My point is that her stealth is not as big a factor considering that she becomes detectable with similar warning to mobile champions. Additionally, she doesn't have to have burst, but perhaps a slow that isn't on a 90s CD?

Because her stealth is still a major factor and holds her back. Permastealth+Burst= not good.

why not just put a delay before evelynn is seen when she enter the 600 range and make it so if she use W it does not break invisibility. this way she could W speedburst and E people directly before she is detected.
