Camouflage vs Orianna's ball

Metal Janna··1 votes·1,017 views

If I correctly guess that a gank is coming, and send the ball out to scout the right place, how come i'm not rewarded by seeing the incoming camouflaged champ? It makes sense for Invisible... but Camouflage? It seems silly that every other vision source reveals Twitch/Eve but not Ori's ball.

Ori's ball acts with normal vision, similar to a ward, Ashe E, Teemo mushroom (if not triggered), etc.

Why should her ball be more special than those other things?

Wards and Ashe Es reveal Camo don't they? Teemo mushrooms aren't about vision so it makes sense they wouldn't reveal camo. Same as a Jhin trap.

Nothing reveals camo except control wards and actual champions in the camo vicinity.

Wow. And here I thought only Invisiblity required True Sight to reveal. So how is one supposed to prevent Twitch from showing up behind them in lane?

Through control wards, like he just said.

And then twitch's hand holding mechanic kicks in, and tells him there's a free 30 gold in that river bush. Great counterplay.

Better to feed him 30 Gold and you survive than feed him 300 Gold because you died.

Well yeah, and that's how it is with most junglers. When Lee Sin fails to gank my lane because I have a control ward, he loses his chance to kill me for the next 3 minutes because i'll just trinket ward the bush. When Twitch fails to gank my lane because I have a control ward, all it costs him is 16 seconds, assuming he cloaked before noticing the ward. If he didn't then it costs nothing.
