Does Lee Sin deserve a unique item?

So I've been thinking about this alot ever since the removal of pretty much every vision option in the game except for pinks and trinkets, but should lee sin get a unique item to place wards or even just a totem or something that doesn't grant vision that he can w to to get into postion for an insec (flash r) I feel like the ward hop was a rather crucial and vital piece of Lee's kit even though it seems rather small and possibly even miniscule it felt like a staple of the champion and I know alot of my friends that main lee miss the mobility and versatility that this offered. Any other thoughts?

Lee Sin is doing perfectly fine with the existing options and there's no reason to add something just for him.

If they did that, they'd have to give him some direct nerfs.

Honestly it hinders him alot a vital part of lee sins kit is to ward hop and now you have been forced to get vision for your team or save it for a gank and good lee sins will always grant vision for the team over a possible gank situation.

I can't tell you how many times i didn't have the extra ward because i used it to get vision, just in general takes away a lot of things that makes lee sin a threat his mobility is cut down by a lot especially since lee doesn't scale well at all he needs to have tools early game and it sucks because every champion has an escape now or some form of mobility or CC and this evolving cast of champions hasn't aged well for lee sin.

I don't think they need to give him an item only he can abuse but i think something should be done at least before i could by green wards.

Can they at least give him a passive that's just a stake in the ground that doesn't grant vision and maybe had charges like gangplanks barrels because he is still limited to his W cd either way, I wouldn't even mind nerfing his damage and making him more of a utility champion who gives more vision and sets up plays and gives up damage.

Probably not, but y'know who could use a unique item? Ivern.
