If I have enough vision since my adc is not braindead and uses his wards and we both buy control wards, why the fuck do you get mad? I get it when the team doesn't have enough vision, but if there is enough you should shut up and play.
Sir Yamazuki3 votesRiot themselves said deciding to skip Sightstone is considered unacceptable if enough people feel it is ruining their games. Although, you not getting Sightstone means you don't get sweeper and 2 trinkets is still worse than a single Sightstone, it also means your ADC will be forced into keeping that same trinket. If you're going to try being "different" you have to accept the potential consequences when you have "fun" at the expense of 4 random people. That's what premades are for, and several people have faced temporary suspensions, repeatedly, for trying "different" things even when they were winning frequently just because it frustrated everyone.
Dasdi963 votesLook, warding totem is not enough vision. Plus, some teammates want to go sweeper to deny vision, meaning they can't provide vision.
Shuyin1782 votesBuy a sightstone Buy the red sweeper Do your job correctly
Supports have 2 jobs early game : 1. Ward EVERYWHERE near your lane. That includes the river, your tri-brush, and the enemy's jungle/camps. 2. Protect your ADC. If you do your job correctly in both fronts then they will survive, get strong, and carry you like people have since you started playing.
Kal Vas Flam2 votesWould you be OK with your ADC building all tank items? Would you be OK with the jungler not taking Smite? Supports need Sightstone, build it or don't play support.
EQ Fidgetspinner1 votesA little extra sense of security never hurts! But still, if less vision isn't being detrimental to the team, then yea, there should be no reason for you to be flamed for not buying a Sightstone.
Head Connoisseur1 votesIt is literally the ONLY item teams need from supports. Almost no one is gonna care if you go full tank sona or whatever the hell you want, as long as you are providing the vision from sightstone.
If you want to play support, but don't want to buy SS, expect to get angry teammates.

Sorry, but I absolutely need my 
to deal with butchered mana costs/regen and 
to compensate for massive nerfs to base damage and scaling. You want vision? Put those trinkets to good use - I'll just be here building items that help me not be useless even after all the nerfs. If you are salty about it, blame a bunch of chimpanzees Riot calls "balance team".
for all I care.
