The new Warding trinket is kinda bad

Broken Timeline··2 votes·455 views

so i just noticed while playing the game it is completly impossible to fully utilise the warding cap of 3 unless you buy the new jungle item or a sighstone wich makes it incredibly hard as top laner to ward ur lane and the rift herold in the early stages of the game since the wards run out faster then you can place them and alter in the game u can only place a max of 2 wards at the same time with this trinket.

Meaning you need to strategically pink warden where they can't get to it or you need to fight to keep vision.

I wouldn't necessarily say that Top lane should be that focused on Warding. When you should mostly focus on your lane. (in general, I think the Jungler should focus the top half of the map. Leaving the bottom half to the support.)

I do feel like the Tracker's knife is a bit under whelming. I would have liked it to be a replacement for Sightstone for Junglers, but it offers too few wards. (Later in the game atleast.) As a Jungle item, I would think it should have a recharge mechanic that interacts with Jungle camps. (in a similar manner as Hunters potion.)

Also with Vision wards becoming cheaper. It will be a more heated battle with fewer over all wards on the map.

Honestly as far as I can tell I think the new Warding trinket is bugged. It says you can hold up to 2 stacks at the same time, but I have never seen more then 1 in the inventory. Further I dont know if people know this but sightstone was nerfed to a degree. It only holds 3 per back instead of 4. Vision in general has become a lot harder to put down, thus removal of it doesnt seem as important. since its just so hard to get it down in the first place.... or at least that's been my feeling with the trinket and vision ward, and sight stone changes.
