Can you ward too much?

I ward more than 92% of the recorded players on WardScore. Is it possible that I am over warding. I play mainly support which could be why. I have been playing a lot of jungle but I still pick up sight stone.

Other than support is there a time to get rid of the Sight Stone is I'm jungling to get a better item in that item slot?

O.o There's no such thing as warding too much, except maybe if your inventory only consists of wards throughout the entire game. Sightstone is a great item on junglers imo. I usually get it when I jungle.

Only if you put 3 wards in the same bush.

There is no such thing as warding too much. You ward more than the vast majority of the players because the vast majority does not fucking ward.

You aren't warding too much, other people just aren't warding enough, keep up the good work.

Holy shit, had never seen that website. I ward more than 98% of the playerbase and more than 85% of the supports.

Not sure if that's me doing a good job or 85% of the supports not warding enough.

Unless your spending all the gold you earn on wards and your disregarding items too much, your fine

The 92% is a bit skewered by the fact the 1.you main the two roles most responsible for vision control and 2.low elo dumbies(which is the biggest group of players) usually dont ward period.

If you watch like challenger or pro games you will see a a majority of junglers grab sightstone pretty early damn near every game, and when they dont its almost always a thought out decision and trade off they are aware they must make.

The better question would be "Am I warding effectively and intelligently placing my wards so they that they are impactful?".

At 92% I believe you're doing near the maximum of 3 wards every 3 minutes like you're supposed to. While raw numbers can't say whether you put down useful wards or not, having 3 out consistently (and a good pink somewhere) is the right move. Bad wards are better than no wards.
