Did anybody mention Kayle? Because she kinda hard counters most populars solo top, has about the best ult in the game, and scales incredibly well with offtank items.

I play support/solotop and I have a question about warding. I know that you're meant to buy wards to avoid dying but I don't know how many to buy when to put them down whether to have them down constantly or have periods of no ward. As support I've got the idea have the river/tribush always warded starting at about 3 mins and drag a few mins after it spawns and go back after the last ward runs out. Am I on the right track or not?

No way man. the first wash stain song was the worst, no contest. just agonizing.

I have a hosts file now specifically because of that ad.

I think I actually hated the Ireland ads more than the stains one, because the Ireland ones were just dreadful and long. At least the stain gone was kinda catchy.

Someone just wrote in a game chat that there is an ELO for Normal Games ( Blind pick ). Is that true in any way? I kind of doubt it because of the high margin of chance of one comp to get instantly countered hard.

I dunno about blind pick, but normals definitely have a matchmaking rating in Draft mode.

I think blind does as well, unless I've just been incredibly lucky lately in hitting 1900+ players every game in normal blinds.

It depends on alot of things. In bottom lane as a support, you will almost always start faerie charm + 3 wards so theoretically if you ONLY wanted them to keep your lane safe, you get 9 minutes of gank coverage before you have to buy. Most of the time you end up spending one or more of those in the bottom brushes to gain control of the lane, but I digress. When you're thinking about warding you have to understand the greater scope of what's going on, that means knowing the gank potential of the enemy jungler at different levels and different timings, a jungler like Nocturne or Jarman is a gank threat almost immediately, whereas junglers like Warwick have difficulty ganking before their first buy. Against the former, you ward early and often, against the latter, you can most likely afford to hang on to those wards for a bit unless you are pushing heavily.

As far as where to place wards on bottom, before the ten minutes mark you can usually get away with a single ward just up the river from the single bush, giving you further vision up the river but also covering the area of a jungler coming from the tribush. After 10 minutes or so, the optimal warding is probably to have a ward on dragon and a ward in the tri-bush, but you often won't be able to keep those warded for every second without a lapse in coverage, so you are going to have to make tough decisions based on the progression of the game. Think about how well you're doing and how hard your lane is pushing, if you're winning or pushing the lane, you are juicy target for ganks.

In general you should try to keep as many wards up as you can afford, but don't go nuts buying wards and delaying your Philo/HoG and gimping yourself buy splurging on wards you didn't need.

That's probably not the exact answer you were looking for, as a lot of what I just wrote boils down to playing more and personally experiencing these things and coming to your own conclusions, hopefully that helps though... you'll have to ask someone else about top though, my experience is limited to "Lancer buy wriggles, lancer put ward in river, ug."

You need three wards for full coverage unless you're pushed to their tower and then you only need 2. You want to keep their most efficient gank path warded at all times, which is the tribush if you're purple and the dragon entrance if you're blue. You should really have the other entrance also always warded unless you're pushed to your own tower. The problem is that the lane will eventually push back and if you have no wards the jungler can already be in position to gank as soon as that happens, be it from the river or up the lane.

I'll generally have at least 2 wards up throughout the laning phase. If you're on blue team and pushed to tower with a reasonable chance of a tower dive, keep your own tribush warded.

Also depends on what you are up against. Aggresive? ward the bushes. You play aggresive, save that ward.

Also consider buying a pinkward

When I'm top I ward tribush and river since that's two most possible ways for a jungler to come and gank me.

Edit: I always buy 2 wards when I go back to base.

He prolly means lanebrush, don't need to ward it if you're playing agressive and take control of it.

You can just ward tribrush and ask your jungler/mid to ward riverbrush on the way top, if you're blue that is.

So I noticed recently that Wukong's decoy is bugged: when he decoys, his health bar changes (more health on the decoy), so it becomes stupidly easy to tell if he has really decoyed or is just acting.

Is this a known bug, old bug, new bug, old bug that resurfaced, or what? :S
