Warding

IcySigh··1 votes·964 views

Hi All,

I have been watching some videos on ward control for supports with pink warding, "octopus" technique (when pushing, ward left and right of "controlled" territory) and I was wondering how the limits on wards and pink wards, visible pink wards, and trinkets have affected the meta for warding as the video in question is a bit dated (August 2013).

Thanks.

If your team is not helping you deep ward, at least make sure the side you're currently pushing is warded. Preferably slightly ahead of time.

Don't be afraid to aggressively replace and move your pink ward as needed.

What about the wards for dragon and baron, especially since some areas need 2-3 wards; should they always be up, and sacrifice one warding spot?

Convince team to buy item 3361 . Otherwise, ward up the lanes like mint says and at the furthest objective (pink there) before you push. So you push bot, ward Baron. You push top, ward Dragon. As you run, your current wards will help you determine if the nearby objective is at stake. If your team helps, they will pink one or the other so you won't have to replace.

Actually, with the scuttle crab, warding baron and dragon is less stressful: you can kill the crab and get the ward there pretty easily, without having to take up one of your "ward placements".
