Is the vision game fun to you?

I think it could be fun, but it mostly just feels boring. Our interactions with ward constructs are limited to: 1) avoid them and the area they occupy; 2) buy one of 3(?) specific anti-ward items to hard-counter the enemy's ward defenses; 3) defend / fight for your ward construct; 4) ....am I missing something?

It's nice that taking out wards now gives better gold and EXP than it used to, but overall the vision game still seems very lackluster.

The vision game is fun when people actually play it.

Working with your team to make sure everyone knows what objectives they will be setting up for and being willing to fight over wards is a blast. However it's like pulling teeth to get people to watch the minimap let alone ward.

Wards are also used to give more strength to certain champions.

Ain't that right lee?

Not gonna lie I struggle with counter vision in league. I use to play statecraft 2 a lot made it to diamond and in that game vision is extremely important. But for some reason I just dont keep up on it the same in this game. Always forgetting to uphrade my,trinket

The vision game itself being fun is a bonus in my opinion. I am working harder in trying to develop my macro play there, and it makes the game better for me because I'm not as worried about being caught in a dark jungle, or being surprised by an early drag from the enemy, or losing a buff, or not seeing a gank. My biggest problem is that at my elo, most players still don't seem to care about wards. I check inventories and often see our support with a site stone, and still has both yellow trinket 30 minutes in the game. Then i look at the rest of the team and I see yellow trinkets staying full, a dark jungle and we are getting owned. Check the vision score and I see most of my teammates under 10. It's frustrating that players still don't see the advantage of something so simple as placing a ward. I'm not talking about new players either. I'm talking about players with 100+ games in ranked alone!
