I have an idea for a buff to Clairvoyance!

Whenever you use it, it drops a 1 minute special "clairvoyance" ward in the location where it was used with the same vision range as a normal ward but this ward is permanent(like pinks) until destroyed, or clairvoyance is used again.

Thoughts?

Or change it completely to go along with the new trend of riot balancing team : "Clairvoyance lets you see the weakspot of your ennemies' armor, every attack/spell you do against the targets ignore 100% of their armor/magic resist." (note it's not true damage as in it can still be reduced by %damage reduction like katarina's E or amplified (vlad ult/swain's e).

Blue Trinket: The Summoner Spell. Coming soon to a rift near you!

It still seems a bit outclassed by Scrying orb. The only difference is it would be global. I would say let it give true vision in the cast area. That would be a nice buff.

My idea was to have Clairvoyance, clear the Fog of war for .5 secs with a 5 minute cooldown. Is this really powerful? Yes, but mind you, your replacing a combat summoner spell or flash for this. And your team has to be good enough to know what they can do with the information. Let me know what you think.

I personally like Clairvoyance... I used it in matches from Bronze all the way to Masters in Twisted Treeline (Yes, it can be useful in Summoners Rift as well ) long ago on my first account People say it is useless, but in the right hands and usage, it can be pretty damn good.

A global range with a 1 minute cool down (54 with Summoners Insight maxed) so you can use it more than Scrying Orb, but I do know that the upgraded Scrying Orb outclasses it, and if you DO get Clairvoyance ; Chances are you will lose ''on demand'' kill potential depending on the lane and role you choose. It's a damn shame trolls make the spell look even worse =\

it's the only SS that actually gets better with player skill.

most common suggestion for buffing CV has been attaching truesight to it.

I honestly don't understand why that isn't done, especially given the added gameplay and design space that would add to stealth champions (and counters to them) in general.

can someone enlighten me?

If it was given true sight then Sweeping Lens would be completely useless Edit: I was confusing it with Scrying Orb

Sweeping lens gives you a wider range (it gives you Oracle buff on the user) than a pink ward. Red trinket will still be better.

Iv suggested this a long time ago, make so the enemy doesn't see its effect, you can see the enemy hiding in the bush but they wouldn't know

Even then, I don't think it would see much use. Riot did a great job of making trinkets accessible and useful, so Clairvoyance is almost entirely outclassed by them. I'd be interested in a summoner spell which let you see into nearby bushes for a few seconds (great for preventing those jukes/seeing that hidden Nunu ult).
