New Mage Jungle Item
12/8 PBE Update
Wow... just WOW... this looks sexy as hell. Anyone playing on PBE right now that can comment? I'm at work, otherwise I'd be jungling it up with my Fid or Diana.

Great now the pendulum swings from AA-based AP junglers back to casters again. When are they going to learn that the jungle needs both the same way there is an AD item and an AS item?
How long before 
fucks it all up?
Yes, I am very excited... I hope they add this patch soon.
Maybe 
will be a champion again!
inb4 breaks it
Runeglaive
40 AP 10%CDR 250 mana
spell blade does Base AD + 30% AP when attacking a monster, damage is reapplied in an AoE and restoring 8% of your mana.
Runic Echo
60 AP 10% MS
after 100 stacks deals 80 + (10% AP) up to 4 targets. Damage against monsters is increased by 250% (200 + 25% AP) and restores 16% mana.
Obviously this item is going to be more transparent about what kind of Mages it helps. (which was kinda Riots goal.) It's is kinda a nerf to AP Bruisers, (thinking along the lines of Eve and elise.)
Not sure about the damage changes with the new passive. BUT, the base damage is going to help AP Jungler's in the Early game, which is where they would need the most help.
p.s. The MS on the item will also help mage Junglers gank. That's a big plus.
i preffer runeglaive. spellblade effect is way better than luden's
