Runeglaive has an unfortunate stat distribution

1.) Junglers have less money than lanes. They already are behind. Pushing a huge amount of money in flat mana only pushes them back further when it comes to early (team)fight power.

2.) The 0.3 Ap scaling requires huge Ap stacking to be useful. Most Ap junglers however have to invest in bulk in order to be able to continiously tank jungle camps (and teamfights).

3.) It's worse than Juggernaut on most meele jungler while ranged jungling isn't viable anymore after Riot yet again nerfed the resets a few patches ago.

Conclusion: Runeglaive only fullfills 1 purpose: Mana for farming the jungle. It has bad stats. It's bad in ganks. It's bad in teamfights.

Riot already stated that they wanted an item which allowed jungler to give up their blue buffs. Runeglaive does this. But the same time it completely screws the jungler over due to bad stats/build synergy.

It either needs some big buffs, or fotunate stat distribution or Magus has to come back.
