But I keep getting raged at lately about noob support not warding tribrush. It doesn't matter if you're on their tower anyway since they get behind you whether you see them or not and I know they can't do it because I've warded the entrance to our wraiths. I end up warding tri just to prevent raging (after trying to explain) but it just feels like an inferior ward. | ||

The other big thing is you need to know how your jungler is doing at least a bit. If the enemy jungler has free roam of your jungle, they'll use that to their advantage and sit in your tribrush, since your team can't force them out. | ||

I don't ward the tribush either, but instead of right side or the mid I ward the left side of the mid, it help detect if mid wants to gank you after pushing lane, especially dangerous whenever your own mid goes back. Usually from how the jungle has been playing so far and how ahead/behind you are you can tell whether he is invading jungle or camping. | ||

I actually really dislike that change. It's gonna make Veigar stupid and take whatever marginal skill he took to burst people down late game. I always thought the one thing that balanced his stupid giant stun radius was the fact that champions could jump through the stun with Flash (which has a long as shit CD) or with various dashes that the champion they're playing might have. Veigar with this change is going to be even easier to combo people with than Annie. Especially the first week or two that this change goes live as people continue to try and jump through it like they used to be able to. edit: Also, I really dislike the fact that they used the word "correctly" in that change. As if for the past like two years Veigar was supposed to have stunned people but Riot just forgot to ever fix it until now lol. | ||

You should still be able to flash the stun if they miss it, which seems like working as intended. | ||

I tend to wander up the river and ward dragon+right side of mid, that way you can see when the enemy jungler comes past your wraiths to gank through tribrush and you get plenty of warning to back off and clear him out.

I usually ward tribush, river and either bot brush depending on the lane control as a support. One of the most useful things that a support can do in the laning phase is to make sure that you can never be surprised with a gank, and that involves keeping constant wards (sometimes pinks) in those three locations. I think that if you're not warding tribush, it's a really greedy/cheesy decision and will be punished severely at higher levels of play. Edit: I also run CV whenever I can get away with it in lane. It's good for counter-jungling, preventing brush jukes, safe warding and obviously, lategame (hard counters ambushes, which is really important in an even match). | ||

Since other than Ez/Kass and Flash I'm pretty sure every other "leap" is considered a dash. So it'd make it impossible to get away from him without Flash. Which is dumb considering the radius of the stun and the range it has on it. If Ahri can't jump through it or Naut can't pass through with Q without being stunned or Mao can't W it then Veigar's laning is probably gonna become really powerful considering any idiot will be able to prevent a gank. | ||

See my point though is that warding mid is SAFER than warding tribrush, it gives you more warning, plus side benefits. | ||

Also, it's very helpful to pink tribush since the purple side support is very likely going to ward there and/or in the area between tribush and dragon. A pink ward there can also deny a lot of vision to the enemy bot lane. | ||

For me, it's not about which is safer - I ward all the necessary locations to prevent ganks on the bottom side of the map. That means that if mid doesn't ward the bot side for themselves, I will do it to detect any possible non-global gank or invade. The only way the enemy team can gank the bottom side of the map is to use a global, TP or flash/dash ability past the wards. If they have Oracle's then so be it, but if they don't then our bottom side of the map is 99% ungankable - i.e. you probably win the game with competent players. Edit: just my interpretation of how to influence the game as a support player | ||

 Can't think of any supports that actually keep 5 wards running at all times from 2 mins plus.I always like to look for efficiencies such as 'do I need to see the place or just the entrance to the place'. | ||
