Ever since rito made the change to give everyone a item 3340 , the amount of actual wards I see being bought is very slim. I think that its great that everyone gets a free ward every so often, but please remember that this vision trinkets ward is terrible, and only lasts 60 seconds early game. That is not going to help you much if you're going to be in lane for at least 5 minutes at a time in between your backs in laning phase.

On the topic of vision trinkets, UPGRADE THEM. If you cant manage to upgrade a trinket yet, just BUY 1-2 NORMAL WARDS. If you can, GET THE FREAKING UPGRADE. AND USE IT. A LOT. A item 3361 ward lasts 180 seconds, just like normal wards. You can carry two at a time, but with the timing of the cooldown, proper usage will let you place 3 on the map at a time, all the time. item 3362 is cool and all, but if youre not using it properly, to secure objectives, then you really dont need to bother with it. Just grab a normal pink instead, or let someone else do it

I really don't get why so many people watch pro streamers, and watch all these pro matches like LCS, MSI and worlds, see the insane amount of warding these people do, and never, ever try to imitate it. Thanks to all of you who are like me and ward everything, no matter what lane you are, but you know darn well 90% of the people you play with hardly buy item 2044 anymore, and will have a item 3340 40 minutes into the match

I can understand not upgrading trinket if you hit a big power spike from an item, only if the 250 will make you not buy it.

But there is no reason not to upgrade the trinket. I'll even buy upgraded yellow if I'm playing adc.

I've even typed "remember to upgrade your trinket " but that never helped.

the problem is the people are so bad they don't know why or what to ward. telling them to buy wards is actually a disservice. You get the relaly dumb supports that get killed and their excuse was warding. really bad advice actually.
