PSA: Supports ward stuff

xelaker··1 votes·531 views

with the new (and a bit silly) autofill system bunches of people are getting supp...ok, fine that's the way the cookie crumbles. people are getting supp and taking non meta champs...ok, fine that's how the meta changes and improves. but it is not ok, ever, to be a support that doesn't or rarely wards. that sightstone has a never ending supply of wards as long as you go back and the ward trinket can hold 2. gonna base? ward everything around you (smartly...) you're gonna get those sightstone wards back anyways and you can always replace them if they aren't needed. warding is hard enough with all the ward killing stuff, and if one player, and this can be any lane mind you supports just have an item to do it better, is all butthurt at autofill and doesn't ward things like dragon or baron life gets rough.

Not true entirely, a more correct title would be "PSA: People who deserve to win ward stuff" Support needs to ward Top, Mid, ADC, and JG need to ward Also ward on ARAM. How? IDK just ward.

As someone who ques as "mid priority, support secondary" I get yelled at for not warding enough only to look at some recaps and see excess of 30-40 wards in some games with less than 5 placed by teammates added together. The only players who rival my warding are Lee Sin and the enemy support.

As a support I'd like to also mention that wards are a trinket and should be readily picked and used EVERY GAME. In comparison I would mention that EVERYONE SHOULD BUY 1 CONTROL WARD. item 2055 is a permanent ward (unless you place another or it dies). Place it in YOUR JUNGLE. It allows you to see counter-junglers and stop ganks from behind. Even if it dies, you helped your jungler and helped yourself.

I check the after game before yelling haha. and I usually buy a control ward if I get ahead or an early kill for the bush between baron/drag and red
