You want people to ward? Support ward stats as much as kills

Brascus··58 votes·3,194 views

After focusing on warding my last 30 games I've had a huge spike in wins, and the only games I've lost were ones that team mates out right ignored vision and the map completely. For all my hard work in making sure we have vision all my warding gets is a bottom left corner on the match history web page and you wonder why most people don't even know warding exists.

With the item 3363 farsight alteration by mid game 1 side of my jungle is covered in wards that don't go away till they die, leaving my 3 slots to keep the enemy jungle wide open. Combine this with 1 more person like support and the whole map is covered in wards.

I want to know how often I had my 3 wards up, how many people they spotted, for how long, when did people remove them. Where that ward heat map for stats huh? Got all those champ kill spots but no warding D:<

"Most enemies spotted by a single ward" (not capped at 5) great idea.

yea, it´s been an ongoing problem for long that K/D/A get´s pretty much overhyped while the things that truly contribute to winning (vision/objective-control/setting up beneficial fights) don´t get communicated by the game at all.

This is why you get the "I went 12/5/15 DURR DURR TEAM THREW" comments all the time on GD.

I will say that "wins" are a stat that rewards warding pretty thoroughly.

item 3340 knows what's going on, shame no one wants to hear it

Clearly for every unique enemy champion that gets revealed by your ward you should get 5 gold.

Brascus1 votes

There should be this too, or maybe it's a special type of trinket upgrade or sight stone.

I like this.

For each time the most fed champ on the enemy team is spotted by any of the wards placed by you, you gain 5g (15sec cooldown)

The only stat that any decent player actually cares about is winrate anyway. I'd rather have a player that averages 2/5/5 with a 80% winrate than a player that averages 10/2/10 with a 20% winrate. So count your wins that result from the wards as that little penta-ward item 3340

Rendath1 votes

The only issue is, if you play consistently then you're supposed to have your MMR adjusted until your winrate is about 50%, aren't you? I fully agree if it wasn't for the MMR.

Personally I would like a "Damage dealt under vision" stat that tracks the damage dealt by your team on targets you provided vision for.

charcharmunro1 votes

I imagine that'd be incredibly tricky to actually do.

Brascus1 votes

It would actually be pretty simple to do, just make an 'if' line of code for being in a wards vision hitbox, some coding really is that simple. In fact all of these things aren't that difficult to do for a programmmer who started last week.

Trouble is for this idea is that once you intercept someone outside of the vision range you don't get the bonus

Brascus1 votes

Same frustrations not getting an assist for not hitting a champ

Warding stats FTW. Please, Riot. Having them on the web does nothing. People need to see they sucked in the after-game lobby, if not during the game itself.

Sure people can ward. But similar to the game itself a player can suck at warding.

Chicken4dinner1 votes

It's easier to get better at warding then anything else, it is just issues of placement and how well your ward covers important area's of the map

Ariel the Cruel4 votes

OBJECTION!

Vayne You can't suck at something you never do.

As a support main that used to not take sightstone, I agree.
