I want more wards

Ternt··14 votes·556 views

The warding trinket just isn't enough for me. Building sightstone on a mid laner just isn't that viable, and the trackers knife for jungle isn't enough wards. I really miss green wards and feel like vision is at an all time low. I think they should reimplement green wards into the game and keep the trinkets as is. I hate leaving the shop with 1 pink and still 160 gold left over. Anybody else feel this way?

I support this message.

Bring back green wards and reduce the cooldown for the yellow trinket.

I remember last season it was like I never ran out of wards with an upgraded trinket.

I build a Sightstone almost every game, almost regardless of what champion or role I'm playing. The lack of green wards is just too punishing; the yellow trinket is BS weak to have no option for stealth wards.

I still don't understand why they haven't implemented more items like the new support items that build from sightstone into all positions. The yellow trinket is terrible because the cooldown on it is so damn high. Either they could reimplement the green wards or make the cooldown on the trinket much lower. But when I am playing a game on somebody like Kha'Zix, even if I am fed and doing well I feel bad not contributing any wards since I need to run sweeper.

The meta is more-or-less established with gold generation and vision going directly or indirectly hand-in-hand. Giving "free" vision opportunities to laners will devalue the support role since they are selling out for vision, so to speak. But, yes, laners have suffered immensely from this.

I don't know how Riot will balance this considering the removal of stealth wards.

what if trackers knifeitem 3711 can hold 3 wards (instead of 2) and refills for every monster takedown?

What about those mandrake wards or something? Remember when rito realesed them on the PBE like ageeeeees ago? That would be perfect for midlaners! BRING BACK THE MANDRAKE

As a support, I feel like my warding is even weaker, especially early on. It's a huge pain and I want the ward limit to be increased if not removed. Back in S1 and S2 the map was literally covered in wards because supports could buy and place as many as they could afford. The ward limit is doing the same thing now that it's always done. It hasn't encouraged other players to buy more wards at low skill levels. It's just made the support's job even harder. It is a constant frustration to me because I always want to place one more ward and I know right where I want it. Riot, I know that you've had the ward limit in place for a while but it's just so toxic. PLEASE find another solution for the supports that want to help their team win the vision war.

My ward placing has near doubled for every single game. Spam it on cooldown, you won't need more wards. The only people I don't take it on immedeatly lvl 9 is Lee sin (ward hop), Jax (ward hop), and a jungler that REALLY needs a red trink.
