It is a mechanic that creates interesting gameplay through meaningful tradeoffs.

You actually have to give something up - in this case, a ward - to benefit from the mobility ward hopping provides.

It was originally a glitch that they just kept in. It works only on Lee Sin, Katarina, and Jax. I've been wondering why they didn't intentionally put it in on Braum so he can protect wards with his shield (the most logical use of ward jumping IMHO). They don't take it out because of the inevitable bitching from literally every Lee Sin/Katarina/Jax main.

And look at the nerfs that have come along for those champs. They should have been smart enough to shut up and be happy.

It makes no sense, they should remove it.

I COMPLETELY agree. It makes champions like Lee Sin WAY too mobile. He is already stupid mobile just jumping around on champions and minions.

They tried to remove it once before and the community backlash bullied them to revert the changes.

I think they should remove it simply because of the fact by having it in sightstone because a core item on ward-jumping champs which means that sightstone can't get buffed without it being an indirect buff to them, and who are they? Katarina Jax LeeSin

Do you want to see them indirectly buffed?
