They are testing currently a item on the PBE that is called Mandrake Ward, it's a sightward that doesn't provide sight. It instead PINGS when an enemy enters it's radius. The difference is, that it ping's even, when your enemy is stealthed. It shares the same placement restrictions then Sightward (only 3 on the map).

While at first, this item looks like a hard counter for eve, i think it's the best thing that can happen to her, viable counterplay to her stealth passive. If there is viable counterplay she can get well deserved love in form of buffs.

Let's face it, because of her passive she is tuned down, at every other aspect. She is the only assassin without an real gap closer (ok she has stealth) but her burst (compaired to real assassins) is like a mild breeze. She is forced to built like a bruiser, without bruiser base dmg nor base tankyness.
