Possible Sightstone buff I had in mind:

As someone who has played quite a few support games over the two years I've played League, one thing has always frustrated me since it was implemented: the ward limit.

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't for the mindset that a support is trash if he doesn't constantly have the map lit up like back in S2/S3, but I like knowing where my enemies are.

When I buy sightstone, it's for this purpose, obviously. If there is a support item completely dedicated to warding, would it be a great idea if it let me place more wards? Like increase the cap to 4 and 5 wards for sightstone and ruby sightstone, respectively.

I mean I see where this could be considered a little over-powered in the respect of free warding with extra map coverage, but is it justified because of the fact that sighstone doesn't really do anything else besides give you some HP?

Just my idea, and I wanted to know if anyone thought it was good. If it's not I'll take you guys' word for it.

What they intended with these changes was to "force" other roles who are not the support to buy wards. If you feel that your vision is lackluster despite having 3 wards up at all times then your team in not warding enough - try and get them to place some. The way I see it whenever you go to base and buy some item you should always have some extra gold to get a couple of wards.

I feel if Ruby Sightstone item 2045 gave even just 1 more ward placement, this would be good!
