What about adding a 'Ward' Slot

Hi, I know you guys will tell me the trinket is the ward slot etc. What I mean by adding a 'Ward' slot, is that in the late game, sometimes you get to your full builds and would like to add some ward vision over the map. You already have your trinket upgraded, and have no room for buying wards. Why isn't there a 'special ward' slot only reserve for 1 type of wards. And with like a max of 5 wards. When I get to late game, full build everything on adc lets say, I feel like the money I make is useless. I can buy a potion, then what ? Change my build for a ''better'' one ? And lack of vision is key to this game, why not make it easier for people to ward ? To balance it all, maybe reduce the timer for sweeper or make it so that the upgraded one last longer on yourself as vision.

Anyone thinks like me here ?

This is going against what riot intended for the vision changes, it's essentially a step towards 1 person being a ward bot again like the old support days.

Ideally your entire team should be warding and using upgraded trinkets, I know it's not going to happen in every day regular matches or lower elo ranks but Riot wants more team synergy.

Listen.

item 3340 is in a dedicated slot and it's 100% free and PEOPLE CAN'T EVEN WARD WITH IT.

It doesn't get any simpler than this. You have an item that's free, that goes in a slot where nothing else but vision trinket can be placed, you choose it, and you still place down sub 5 wards in a 30 min game. If you're not someone who wards, it doesn't matter how easy and accessible warding is.

I already told that I know there is already the trinket. I'm speaking mostly for lategame when you are full build and can't buy anything more really. It would add to the late game strategy in my opinion. I used to play Smite and therefor that's a thing I like about the late game. I hate only have to ward every XXX min when I could buy them and provide my vision with my own strategy.

Trinket is not a dedicated ward slot. Trinket wards last a lot less time than real wards, and if you go with sweeper in this slot, which you should if you're a jungler, then you're pretty much boned after that. Who the hell wants to have a Ruby Sightstone on Jax 70 minutes into the game. It's extrememely useful but they should at least add another upgrade to it so you can get some decent combat stats late in the game.
