Upgrading your trinket is infinitely better than buying that to help towards your next item.

Please upgrade your trinkets as soon as you can people.

My ward score: http://wardscore.loltools.net/?name=kratos%20aurion&region=na I ward more as assasins than as supports :/

Edit: I know it's available at level 9, I just created a random scenario in which you had a choice of things to buy

"Hey support we need more wards"

/already has two wards out /idiot crying about wards has not upgraded trinket and doesn't use it anyway /nobody else has either

Elo hell is real, and people make it themselves.

if I have 200g left over I always buy item 2043 and item 2044 ...but in all seriousness...why does riot still have item 2050 on here?

As others mentioned, if you don't have upgraded trink at 9, you might as well don't do it at all because that's the pivotal point of the game.

Also, Co-op games don't require a trinket. :)

Why would you upgrade at 11 and not 9? Just saying....

LeBlanc Jameś10/7/2015, 10:51:56 PM1 votes

A 250G upgraded trinket that gives you the ability to have 3 wards out all the time is stupid. Ward tri support peon..

I just had a match where this was exactly the problem. Me and Jung were the only ones upgraded and no one else was even placing wards. Keep in mind I was AP MID not support, so that's just even worse. And my entire team insisted on facechecking everything. Also, on another note, top lane was playing zac and called himself a tank. but built a warmogs and nothing but AP items. like wtf is that even enough for warmogs heart. I'd assume no but I've never played zac.

I tend to go item 2139 if I'm ahead but otherwise i almost always pick up item 3361 as soon as possible.

lol the teams I get dont even use their trinket wards more than maybe twice per game. It's sick. I want to buy wards and upgrade my trinket, but it always feels like a drop in the bucket because my wards are usually the only wards on the map.

Do you even ward bro? http://wardscore.loltools.net/?name=catracho09&region=na

Thank you for warding so much but don't forget the value of item 3362 and item 3363 Sometimes its better to have less wards for more clearing

To be fair assassins should be warding at least as frequently as supports because they need to make picks.

You win by killing the nexus after destroying at least 5 turrets. To kill turrets you need damage so if you want to win you should by the damage item.

Just kidding:)

You should upgrade the trinket as soon as you can after level 9

I think homeguards are soooo underrated. You can get back to lane and get 100-200 you would've missed to your turret of the 475 gold it initially costs. Then you do this several times over the course of the game to make the money back. Just getting back in time for a cannon minion is worth it in xp/gold.

I seriously have no idea why getting homeguards earlier isn't stressed enough, it's such a great value in returning to your lane and getting CS you would've otherwise missed. Sometimes if you're lucky you can even get back in time to burst someone down and kill them for 300 gold.
