Sightstone Idiocy

Am I a bad support for buying wards, instead of buying Sightstone? I mean, It just, it seems like a waste of early game gold to me when I could just buy the wards, the fact that it offers free wards isn't the issue, the issue I have with it, is that it only gives HP as a stat, there is nothing else, sure I may have the bushes warded, but what about my survivability if I manage to get caught defending my adc? I just find it rather useless other than making gold easier to come by. Also, i'd like to complain that if you adc, and you complain that the support is taking your creep when you are at the spawn and nowhere close to the lane where the creep is being taken by your support, shut the hell up, you weren't going to get it, its better that the support gets it, than letting it go to waste.

You can run with a single green Stealth Ward at the start, and get your Sightstone on the first back. Like Ginnjii said, it pays for itself quite quickly. You don't even have to start with a ward (other than trinket), you can play a little safer and alternate trinket warding with your ADC before your first back to get SS.

Just get the Stone. Also, if you're going to Back and get a Sightstone, don't leave with green wards in your inventory and none on the map. Put it somewhere useful, and make sure you trade your yellow trinket for a red sweeper.

Considering how a sightstone pays itself off in 10 or 11 wards and every ward after that is technically free. And as a support you're definitely going to be dropping around alot more than 10-11 wards.

And HP Is a good stat to have early game or so.

having the bushes warded means your probably not going to get caught out and have to protect your adc unless you guys start a bad fight
