at least 3, better 4 total in your inventory if you have any of the support items.

Or... just make control wards a purchase activateable slot of its own, so it doesn't interfere with late game itemization.....

Or better yet, make vision a team game instead of making supports the ward b****. I honestly thought they were gonna get there with vision trinkets, but the community seems to hate the idea of anyone helping with vision other than support/some junglers.

It would be nice to have more capacity as a support for control wards in our inventory. Also maybe a discount of 25g since we are the ones expected to have them at all times--- coincidentally we are also the most gold-starved players in the game... idk maybe this could be a rune in the inspiration tree or something. I'd love to see something like that.

oh and some kind of AP/Tank version of item 3179 . It really isn't fair that this item is so biased when blackout is HUGE for map control. Senna can sweep your entire jg area while zooming around, one shotting the wards. Meanwhile a support like Nami who fears being caught out must sit still for several seconds per ward, wasting sweeper duration. I feel like Riot got it backwards tbh. Squishy, dependent supports need blackout. Not assassins and marksman/support hybrids that can hold their own even in a 2v1 situation....

Even better, make it so that pink wards have their own separate slot and leave the 6 others for actual items.

They really just need to add a new trinket slot where you can purchase one item and it refreshes. Or make a new vision item that does this. Buying wards is and was lame, no one wants to spend their money on wards but they have to to win games.

I´d much rather have them have a unique slot so i wont be unable to buy them because i was grabbing components for a big item.

Additionally, if you have to buy so many of those you are doing something wrong, if you cant defend them or put them in spots that are easily reached then you are wasting gold!

Just 5 wasted control wards is equal to 375 gold, and this is not counting the gold the enemy team get for clearing them, one has to be careful for real about where and when they use those.

They should go back to letting you buy normal wards and as many as you can get away with. I hate having the ward trinket. Unless you get a CW you can only light up one area at a time. And who's bright idea was it to have supports be the only ones with an item that lets you ward?
