Can we bring back pink ward trinket?
Why was it removed in the first place? I would really like to have an option to have a pink ward when Im already full build in the lategame.

Because Riot wanted vision to be more team eccentric without over stuffing the map with wards.
Now these days you barely have 4 stealth wards on the map with two control wards out. l0l
What, you mean you DIDN'T want to be basically screwed out of building a 6th item just to ensure someone on the team is carrying control wards? pfft, get the fuck outta here
- Riot Games
Unpopular opinion: I don't mind having control wards in the game but what I want is the Greater Vision Totem 
(or control ward in this case) to come back. It feels awkward to lose a control/vision ward in the late game and you have used up all 6 item slots in your build. You would have to temporarily risk not having your full build if you want to put another ward on the rift and you may not have enough money to repurchase your sold item at that time.
I don't know about you guys, but whenever the game hits that stage, pinks are almost immediately destroyed anyways.
I imagine it could hold the same CD as normal Ward Trinket or an even lower one since only 1 can be placed anyway.
Before I start, I would like to state that I am siding neither with you nor with Riot in this situation. I'm simply stating my thoughts.
I'm a little lost here. I'm newer to the game, so sorry if I'm mistaken, but didn't pink wards basically work the same as control wards in that you needed an item slot for them? Or could you put them in the trinket slot if you were full build?
Also, why don't you just have your support and maybe jungled buy a sweeper? If it's because they won't listen to you, then that's another problem entirely.
Maybe they removed pink wards because you could basically have both wards and a sweeper without having to forfeit anything. Maybe they tried to make the game more team-oriented by making it so that, come late game, you're forced to share vision duties. I'm not saying it justifies what they did as I don't know enough about the game to say whether this change is good or bad.
Besides, it's still an even playing field; the enemy team has to deal with this as well. You're not at a disadvantage or anything.
On a final note, may I ask what specific situation(s) drove you to make this post?
It got removed because vision is OP and because having 5 items and 3 pinks is a legit (and admirable, imo) support strat.
I wonder if they could have some trinket that is basically a holding bag for Control Wards, so you can purchase Control Wards at full build; they just are put in your trinket slot.
Just a thought. Might be OP.
Better yet, when lvl1 scanner detects a ward it should be permanently detected.
i made a post about this recently it just seems so dumb to not have true sight in trinkets im still not sure why they thought it was a good idea to remove them horrible game balance on their part.
