And no, I don't just mean supports (but while on topic, but your sightstones).

We've all had those top laners who bitch and complain about how always get ganked all game, so I took the liberty to check his vision score that game. It's no wonder people like him gets ganked all the time, I mean he placed only 4 wards in that 20 minute game.

But I'm just curious as to who my jungler was in the very next game. How can you play a 37 minute game and only place 3 yellows?

Please be better then these people. Never just hold onto those 2 stacks of yellows. Use them. Save your own life with vision.

WARD!

Upvote for reminding even those of us who are pro-wards to use our wards. For some reason I slack when I roam.

As a top lane main I actually really enjoy taking Domination as my secondary tree, for zombie ward and that rune that lowers active item cooldowns, which includes trinkets. More vision means a safer top lane experience, and more knowledge for your team.

Top lane is actually really dangerous right now when it comes to ganks, so there is a little something to his complaining. That doesn't excuse not warding of course, because every step you can take to prevent a gank before it happens counts.

I don't get it. When I see I have a trinket ward up, I have a compulsion to place it somewhere on the map before it's wasted. I genuinely cannot relate to people who spend all game only placing 5-10 wards.

Haha legit man, legit. Wards don't even cost gold anymore... completely free, and they still don't use them. It's incredible to watch.

I average between 15 and 20 stealth and a few control wards a match as a mid lane. Saved my ass quite a few times.

Edit:I try to average that, doesnt happen every game though, depending on how good or bad we are doing, i do sometimes forget, as my match history shows.
