ye Red Trinket. What is that gonna do? The guy burst you down. Then Stealth. Then kills you. You cannot damage him cause you cannot see him

But, if you never saw him coming you would have never used an ability, therefore he would still be stealthed and you'd still be dead. Map vision/awareness are really the best counters alongside pink wards and red trinket.

Pink Ward is part of the problem, Red Trinket is a step in the right direction, but Riot's moving too slow.

sunfire would just counter stealth too hard then.

if CC countered stealth I'd be on board.

Huh. Heroes of the Storm, Uther with his Holy Flame (or whatever) trait. Go to for perma stealth sobs like, ooooh, Zeratul.

I DO wish that Riot would at least make the Pink Wards, the ones you pay for, a three ward limit. Stealth has become a bit problematic since the removal of Oracles and since they decided to make pinks visible. But that's just my thoughts.

well maybe not low damage abilities. But lets say you get hit by Syndra's Balls or Malphite AoE abilities You should get our of stealth

pretty much stealth has no counter now

late game you have no room for a pink? revert the changes to red trink so you can see stealths maybe i would be on board with that but just saying "buy pinks" is 3/4 retarded

Let's pretend pinks/sweepers/certain champ abilities/etc don't exist.

I'm so disappointed that whenever a convo about stealth pops up, people just point to Sweeper and Pinks.

It's like saying, "Hey, there are all these champs that deal physical damage, but we don't have a ton of options for countering them."

And then the plebs point out the item 1029 and downvote you like you don't understand 'gaem mechanux'.

But then they're just proving your point.


Game has tons of options for countering AD and AP, but when it comes to stealth we get 2-3 items and a dozen champ abilities. It's like Riot is scared to give us unique and interesting ways of gaining / detecting / interacting with stealth.

For the record, I think having damage break all stealth might be excessive, but for a particular champion, maybe his or her instance of stealth would have a quirk where taking X% of their max health as damage breaks it. In return, their stealth could be very strong and do some neat stuff.
