Invisibility needs...something

JustSir··1 votes·457 views

Since the removal of stealth wards, and people relying more heavily on Vision Wards, i have noticed a SIGNIFICANT drop in power of junglers who rely on invisibility to be successful. I was silver 4 before the reset and in the lower elo's i noticed a slight difference but not so much, but i play with diamond players alot (they got me into the game) and Eve and Shaco's ability to go invisible is almost entirely irrelevant, it seems. I know its a very powerful mechanic, which is why i think Riot made them pretty damn squishy, BUT that mechanic to a big nerf when Pink wards became the norm to place in the brushes. Has anyone else experienced this feeling or is it just me. Eve, i can understand because it her passive, and shaco's boxs as well. But Shaco's q is his main form of engage and is entirely negated by a pink...i think something need to be done because I love shaco, but i havent played him in a while because he just isnt as effective as he used to be

The only people who actually buy pinks are gold+ players or the support.

i was not originally placed in bronze. In fact I only started really playing in August (I have a really old beta acct from when Riot gave gamestop employees early access), I made it to 30 in September, alongside my diamond friends. They let me go through placements on my own to see how well i would do...placed in silver 5 right out of the gate :D! Come season reset i won 6/10 and was placed in b4. Point is...i have put way too much time and effort into learning this game...i want to make it to gold on my own

If you're bronze you can only queue with bronze or silver players.

mmhmm thats what i thought lol. I have the play style of a gold player...my diamond friends say i just need to work on my mechanics... average cs at 10 min: 72.3 (measured over 20 games) wards placed per game: 5.6 (across non-support roles) 15.4 (as a support) im not terrible at the game, i watch challengers on twich all the time and practice what the do in custom games...i just need time

I still shit on souls with Evelynn.

Im not saying she is bad...just saying the advent of pink wards made her skill floor much higher

Absolutely, I think it's great she's not as freelo anymore. The higher the skill floor the more rewarding it should become.

granted, but i was more talking about shaco's q more than anything. He really does have any efficient engage other than his q. Udyr doesnt need stealth to engage becuase he has Bear stance and is tanky. Shaco dies to a stiff breeze so he can gank unless he is unseen. I just thing, certain invisibility abilities should have a deeper layer of invisibility. Rengar's invis ability already lets you know he is coming from a really long way away...should a pink really reveal him further?
