Just nerf unique, high skill cap champs into oblivion. Eve has an extraordinarily low skillcap. You need a lot more than 50g in extra wards to deal with a Shaco.
Eh, shaco is not bad.
Also I wouldn't consider him high skillcap (unless plaving boxes the right way is high skill). He is fun to play, and really you don't need pink wards against him, just smart warding. Plus his lategame is zzz.
Basically, Shaco is at the kinda point that other AD assassins like Khazix, Panth, etc should be at: Needs a kill+ pre-lvl 6 to be relevant. OR They could make some of the AD Assassins into lategame oriented champs that get stomped hard early in certain matchups (like Kassadin or Poopy).

I really enjoy the proposed sighstone change. Makes good sense, helpful plus instead of sitting waiting for 700g. LOL Phreak was dating Mia Rose.

I'm happy with pretty much all of the changes on the PBE.
Kat changes I don't understand why.
Shaco can go die in a fire for all I care, he should be nerfed to never pick status. This is because he is one of the most annoying and aggravating champions to play against, and also with, as the shaco on your team NEEDS to get fed or get lanes fed or else you will just lose lategame... The entire game shouldn't be around 1 player doing well/badly to that extent.
Ap changes are nice, helps burst casters and ap carries more then tanky aps, ap/armor item is interesting, would be amazing for supports but the stacking mechanism (might lead to support morg/zyra getting early cs?)
Ez will still be a strong pick, he is simply untouchable by alot of bruisers due to his e having such a low cd and the fact that it always works, and him getting 50% as for free.
Elise is very very strong in lane and small skirmishes, worse in teamfights, don't know enough to say if nerf was needed.

Kat changes make sense considering the tank-Kat build that Voyboy has popularized. Now that her based damage has been nerfed and the AP ratio on her ult has been raised there's more incentive to build AP instead of defenses.

But yeah, Riot has a history of nerfing things that don't match up with their original intentions.

Part of me wants to start primarily jungling just to see if I can try to only carry there as XJ9 does by eating all buffs and taxing every lane. I imagine once you get the hang of that style it's very effective at carrying solo-queue.

Why the Ez ult nerf? It wasn't *that* good to begin with.

Ez ult nerf seems kind of random, I had hoped they would have waited a little bit so see how much the attack speed nerf affected his play. Ult was the least of his problems. Maybe they were trying to minimize his ability to farm waves from across the map.

Also I've been doing the warmogs first on jungle nunu, into golem buff, and I find the straight up hp gives survivability without even needing to think about effective hp. Especially with the item changes and the armor/mr nerf, stacking cheap hp deals with everything. I don't think hp is too good, I think armor/mr are too poor.

I would make the argument that if a teamate rages at a lack of buffs then they'd probably rage over anything that doesn't go their way in the game to begin with and they'd soon be complaining about a lack of MIAs, ganks, or pulled lanes anyway (there are exceptions obviously since some champs genuinely NEED blue or else they're in a terrible spot). Your argument that "some players just aren't carryable" seems odd to make since, if they're so bad they can't be carried, I kind of doubt playing a more support-style jungler and relying on them to carry would be successful if they're that bad.
edit: About the EZ ult nerf - the thing I've always wanted is for it to actually be interruptable during its animation.
