I know its not a definite change, but the 100 cost increase on the first jungle item would suck

Eve is already just barely playable. Right now the hardest part of her clear is the initial Gromp->Blue->Wolves. After that you can back, get stalkers blade and 2 pots, clear red, and gank. If this goes through, she wont be able to jungle at all I think. Eve is my favorite champion, and I want to keep her viable. The last changes to her and to smite really helped her out.

I'm sure there are other junglers who are in a similar position where they NEED to back after wolves.

What I'm guessing is, they want people to upgrade their to tier 3 of their jungle items. Even though t3 jungle items are cost efficient, there are simply other items that are more helpful before completing IE Hydra.

Why are we taking Wolves? If you are not taking your buffs one after the other, you would run the risk of those buffs getting stolen. Not to mention that you really don't want to waste your buff duration going back and getting Items.

Honestly, I think this change will affect TT more than it will SR.

I agree, the double smite has really helped me when playing eve, I couldn't even play her before. It was TRASH

Riot loves making contrary decisions on the jungle. Raise jungle skill - don't touch jungle stats. Finally raise jungler stats - nerf mana regen. Increase gold in jungle - increase cost of jungle items.

Really, its almost to the point where you have to wonder who at Riot is actually managing these poorly thought out balance changes and why they as a team cannot effectively get it right.

Junglers need more xp, their gold is in an ok spot. the 100 gold change would be annoying, but if they got the xp to keep up with laners i think we would all be happier.
