Buy a sight stone, providing vision is a huge part of you're role, If you font have a sight stone as one of your early purchases, and your playing "support" you hare playing it incorrectly, and you're giving up much of you and your adc's security in lane, for a tiny bit of damage, PLEASE buy a sight stone.[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

I always thought it was a given. Only times I don't ever have one is when games go on super long, everyone is fed and I sell mine to buy a Warmogs or something for the inevitable team fight of doom.

Tiny bit of damage? I often outdamage at least one carry when i build full ap. Sometimes both.

While there's never any excuse not to buy a gold-gen item as a support, and tank supports are better off buying the Targon Eye item, when playing alongside an AP support, for all i care, the ADC could afford to spend the gold on an item that makes them less squishy and safer to play. Meanwhile we get to rack up that sweet AP and out damage the ADC regardless of whether or not he does buy the damn sightstone.

I will always refuse to be a vision slave. You want vision, you get the useless item that comes with it.

In before all the EUW players tell you to fix Don't when you said font. Then talk about how to speak proper english.

I'm fine with this suggestion, but can you link which match triggered you to post this thread?

Dear adc, mid, top and jg players You have wards too You can also ward [zombie-brand-mindblown] (Not saying that supports don't need sightstone, but don't start complaining if supports don't buy sightstone 1st item)

You don't need sightstone when neither team has advanced botside (jungle included). In stalemates, or in the first 10/20 minutes, it's better to get combat stats to break the stalemate than to get sightstone. (You have both REDS and trinkets for defence) Sightstone can be used for highly aggressive / coordinated plays vis deepwarding while the map's split like this, which results in an advantage, but isn't an effective strategy in low elo soloQ. Otherwise you only need to rush it for an invaded jungler or for specific enemy junglers with odd gank paths.

Summation: I see enemy support rushed sightstone instead of stats, I kill them. Then I use the money to buy sightstone.
