Hey Supports, a helpful tip

You're getting bitched at about not warding, aren't you? Lemme help you with that. Something most people don't understand is if your team is behind, warding is actually dangerous as fuck post lane phase because the enemy has map control and likely has neutral sites warded, making picks really easy. Typically these are picks by 1-2 champions, not entire teams. And while you can generally gauge if an area is safe to ward by enemies you see on the map, it only takes that Syndra waiting in a bush with 3 kills one combo to blow you up.

So yknow what? Refuse to ward unless someone goes with you (preferably your beefiest ally). You'll probably get bitched at for not warding but when you're behind and at a tower disadvantage, one of the things that continues a snowball is an enemy picking off a support trying to ward. And this is usually only 1-2 champions because they're ahead and can get away with it.

You can't make other people ward but if they want vision, everyone needs to understand that controlling vision needs to become a team game. A support that's behind doesn't have the luxury of controlling vision themselves.

So did you hear that everyone? Not just supports because often times supports do understand this. But when you are behind and at a tower disadvantage and you've lost map control, warding needs to become a team game. Otherwise non tanky wandering players attempting to ward will just get picked constantly in river and continue the snowball.

Also, junglers: this shít is a free win (of any upgrade, not just cinderhulk). It's also the best smite upgrade by far when your team is behind.
