Give us a Slot just for Control Wards

Once you get to the mid/later game our items cram our inventory up.

Is it possible to create a slot just for wards? I try my best to ward throughout the whole game and believe it helps me quite a bit.

I'm talking about Control Wards.

i'd love if we bought a control ward with full inventory it would take the place of our trinket until we place it like eye of the void.

I'd like to see the pink (now red) ward upgrade for the yellow trinket make a comeback.

Not sure about yet another active slot (a real pain when playing support).

Remember when trinkets could be turned into pink wards? Good times

It's almost like Riot doesn't want 10 control wards on the map at all times past 25 minutes. I wonder why that could possibly be.

I miss when the trinket could be upgraded to a pink ward

**Simple anwser: **No! Way to many Control Wards! Long answer: A trinket or potentionally storing it in the ruby sightstone (eventually extendable to all tier 2 sightstones) is miles better! Otherwise the vision balance would just fall a part! Up to 10 control wards which also can be replaced is insane.

This should be in the gameplay section. Bump though 🖒

The reason why i dislike this idea is because it would make stealing objectives impossible depending which side you are on. All you have to do is place down a control ward and you either have to fight them for it (and it could be too late) or give it up. Its okay early game because they are less important but elder and baron are very powerful and if we add this then who ever has elder or baron facing them will automatically get it unless you choose to fight them outright, but if you are trying to mount a comeback or you don't have everyone with you that no longer becomes an option, unless you just want to try guess.

Now that every stealth champion can't be countered by simpling placing down a ward, I think this is necessary

Why not a summoner spell that spawns a control ward? This is sarcasm, c'mon ppl take a joke.

All I ever wanted was a slot for wards. I didn't want trinkets, I wanted ward slots. pls rito.

They won't do it because they don't want a ton of vision on the map like (s3? or s2/s4?). It encourages safe gameplay, especially at higher elos, and it makes things faster.

I think it was part of their "make games more fast-paced" campaign

They should just give us an extra summoner spell, and everyone has to get it. It'll be the control ward spell. BOOM! problem fixed. also, F is for Flash and A is for control wArd.

I like it the way it is. I always save a spot for red wards. Maybe if I have a lot of gold and can get something real shiny like a NLR for the final push. I feel like I have an advantage over many players that dont even buy reds or dont give the priority over lesser items.

Honestly I could care less if we have a war slot or not this complete utter garbage has fallen so hard from its glory days it doesent matter, the fact you have to significantly depend on others in a fast paced meta where team fights last two seconds because the games are almost always decided under 30 minutes is bs. Riot ruined this game the moment season 6 came out with its new concept of teamwork meta styles, sure league has always been a team game but never to the extent where one person can completely fuck your game even if the player isn't feeding.

The only problem I have with this is that if all players could get control wards it would seriously unbalance late game vision. Now, if say, Ruby Sightstone granted this extra slot for control wards...that would be super.

As a Eve main, I do not like this. Everyone will finally be able to see me dance in their lanes
