How did pink wards help you dodge spears that a regular ward wouldn't have?

it's an attempt at a joke that's trying to prove a point that pink wards shouldnt have been removed because the reasoning is flawed. or something like that. this is memes and games after all. im going to go out on a limb here and guess that it's being implied that you can avoid pink ward placement by not walking into the view of the pink ward as an assassin. or maybe it's suggesting that invisibility shouldnt have a counter item. idk. maybe the original poster really meant that they could block spears with wards. i doubt it but maybe.

My goodness when did you start this game? Bless you, you haven't seen the ridiculousness.

It was an ongoing things for 4 years that Nid's spears are sometimes invisible. The running joke was that you couldn't counter her because you can't adjust your playstyle if you can't see what's coming. It was fixed, at least for the most part, and people would still cry that spears were too strong and that they were still invisible, instead of accepting that they were slow and could be dodged. The joke to the terrible players was to put up pink wards to counter Nid...to see invisible spears.

Irony is that the issue really was solved by seeing a spear with a pink ward during that buggy mess, and another irony is that people just let their champions stand around waiting to get hit.

oh. i never saw any of those memes this year or last. mostly just memes and jokes relating to yasuo and rwby. i dont get on the forums much, but i've played since season 1. however i dont think i ever noticed that bug. it must be something only higher level players noticed or something. lee sin being blind jokes and people complaining about the ranked system from season 3+ along with a few other things.

if i had a signature it'd be "lazy grammar is fun grammar"

that's an interesting story though.

edit* oh and of course yi's alpha was a funny one.
