Add Trinket Upgrades to Recommended items?

As someone who values vision immensely and also uses recommended items for a large part for item builds, I personally would love it if Riot added trinket upgrades to the consumables section in the recommended items list. For one, I didn't even know they existed for the longest time. I thought that the only reliable way of getting wards was to build sightstone (which was, funnily, the original reason why I started playing support.)

The other thing is that having trinket upgrades in the rec items is a good way to remind people to upgrade their trinket and that the trinket upgrade exists. Even as a vision freak, I end up forgetting to upgrade my trinket occasionally and it's somewhat embarrassing when I go to ward and realize that I had forgotten to upgrade my trinket.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't recommend upgrading a trinket. Just seems like an obvious thing to do.

Thoughts?

Meh, I personally don't care that much since I take the time to make item sets. (I have a vision/ pots page). However, I think it would be good for people who just started playing etc.

Not really. If they were going to do that, they'd need to do a lot more, I think.

They should add ALL the trinkets to the recommended, list their upgrades, put the recommended elixir in the consumables, and actually add all of the consumables as well (they don't have a pink in there most of the time)

They basically need to update the whole thing, I don't think the trinket upgrades are 100% necessary yet.

Elixirs and pinks are recommended.

Trinket upgrades are absolutely necessary. Vision is probably one of the most important things in game and getting that upgrade for only 250 gold makes trinket upgrades the most gold efficient items there probably are in the entire game. There's absolutely no reason why you wouldn't want to upgrade your trinket to get infinite regenerating wards or a stronger ward clearer.
