Pink wards are visible, so why don't they reveal stealth champs?

It's not like the wards are hard to find and clear.

Edit: forgot about them being placed mid-fight. EagleEye007 suggested giving them a buffer time after they'd been placed before they could detect stealth. I'm on board with that.

cuz riot did that to "balance" stealth champs [zombie-brand-facepalm]

I've always wondered why they didn't just hit a happy medium on that. They wanted to get out of slapping a pink ward down mid-fight and exposing stealth. Why not have a buff on them that doesn't kick in for the first 10secs it's out or something? That buff could reveal stealthed champs. Means they're next to useless in a fight like Riot wants, but you can still ward gank paths if you can control them.

well if they cant go stealth for 10 seconds like you say would make them worthless and not worth picking...

i dont like the whole warding system now any ways... i think trinkets are cool and i think sight stone is cool but let us buy wards and place more then one fukin ward if buy them.

its part of riots ideology to buff junglers impact on the game and to stop putting the burden of being a ward bitch on supports. but people still cry about having to ward as a support. people dont wanna spend the 800 gold for an SS cuz they feel it hinders them from buy core items and damage or whatever ... when SS is core on support. lol

That's not what he said. The wards wouldn't be able to detect stealth champs until 10 second after they'd been placed. That's a reasonable change.

Then they'd be worthless for stealth abilities like Talon and Vayne, while being very weak against camouflage champions.

10 seconds is a very long time.

I guess Invisibility is the right word now? Yeah 10 seconds is a while.

Since the current "pink wards" are for camouflage champions, talks about stealth tend to connect to them.
