A spectre is haunting the fields of justice— the spectre of freedom for supports from the slavestone ( item 2049 ) All the powers of old field of justice have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre: The ADCs , The Junglers, The Toplaners, The Midlaner

Do not brand yourself under the slavestone. We deserve to have as much fun as the other roles, not be bombarded every game with with the questions "No vision? Where's your sightstone? Report no sightstone."

No one asks the midlaner "Where is your rabadons?" No one asks the ADC "Where is your executioners calling?" No one asks the jungler "Where is your cinderhulk?"

Why must WE be questioned about our build? Warding and map awareness is the responsibility of EVERYONE playing the game.

Other MOBAs make warding a responsibility of everybody and everybody can ward. Dota2 and SMITE for example, everyone wards, everyone can buy wards. DESTROY THE SLAVESTONE, SET YOUR SELF FREE. summoner 4 summoner 4 summoner 4 summoner 4 summoner 4

But item 2045 is a good item that gives good amounts of health and useful vision AND the CDR on actives which is amazing for things like item 3401 item 3107 item 3190 item 3092

If you don't want to buy the actual Sightstone, you can at least buy item 2303 item 2302 item 2301 . Not only do you free up an item slot for whatever you want, you also get 1 additional ward charge, along with all the bonus stats from your tier-3 support item.

Since this is obviously another s*** post referring to the singed support "incident", I'll repeat what has been said 3000 times already to other people who didn't understand anything in the first place: It was not about sightstone, it was not about off meta supports, it was about this guy going support just so he could continue to play jungle singed and counter jungle and proxy the enemy team.

Forget warding with sight stone, this guy would permanently leave his ADC bot lane and the only reason he ever or will go bot is simply because "Gotta go baby sit my ADC or else I'll get reported again" - His exact words he uses frequently on stream.

"But he shouldn't have to follow the meta, supports can do more than sit bot" No, no they can't. By default the meta has already been shaped and locked in place, atleast in bot lane there's no room for supports taking on a different role in solo queue.

Markman characters are weak, powerless champions that can not do anything on their own and instead rely on items to scale and become the DPS trucks that they're designed to be. Supports were originally made to be a role soley focused on feeding the ADC gold and XP so they can scale, while they themselves of course make sure that nothing takes advantage of the weak and fragile ADC's until they get their necessary power to become an asset to the team.

By "breaking the meta" and becoming a roaming support you're effectively shutting out your ADC from the game. If the ADC even tries to come into lane then the enemy bot lane abuses the hell out of the poor player like an all you can eat buffet, if he doesn't touch the lane then no matter what he will lose XP and gold so it's over for him until far, far, FAR later in the game for him to finally catch up.

Unless your new theory crafting roaming support can make some sort of undeniably huge game changing plays for your team that makes up for forfeiting bot lane, delaying your ADC in gold and levels for atleast another 10-15 maybe even 20 minutes, and causing a hell of alot of unnecessary stress and pressure to the ADC player, then stick to the meta.
