Simple improvement: put the Trinket upgrade instead of the trinket into the recommended items

Trinket item

Let's be honest: only a very small number of players ever upgrades their trinket (and it's mainly junglers or supports who upgrade the red trinket)

item 3340 --> item 3361 item 3362 Yellow (or green, if you prefer) trinket is a very significant support and boost for a team's vision, as it's basically half a sightstone that doesn't occupy inventory space and costs less than four normal green wards. We all know the burden of providing vision lasts mostly on the support's shoulders, who is basically forced to buy SS. A couple of greater stealth totems in a team would help a lot, but I think most people (especially low level players) don't even know you can actually upgrade your trinket when you reach lv9

So here's the suggestion: could you make Greater Stealth Totem the recommended trinket instead of just regular Warding totem? This won't solve the problem, but I think it's a change that doesn't cost much but maybe could open one or two player's eyes :)

Save a life Buy a ward Upgrade your trinket item 3361

HALF a sightstone? When I (mid) get my yellow upgrade my first back after level 9, I frequently ward the same amount as the support.

This isn't a bad idea, though I think giving more emphasis to the fact you can make custom recommended items for specific champions, or sets of champions, should be highlighted more.

Since currently you can already change the items to show the upgraded trinket if you so desire (or even show both).

I support this 100%. Some people don't seem to understand that vision control is a team effort!
