Pink: if you are being pushed into your tower, these are important to prevent getting ravaged. 1) Typically placed by mid or jungle, allows you to see obvious roam bot from midlane, and invades into your own area. 2) Dragon eyes, and gives you decent warning of a gank from the river. 3) Critical if you are pushing and the enemy can conceivably be near you. This is the one you placed. 4) Very useful if you are being pushed under tower and need some eyes on the river. Can be placed from point L with practice, for maximum safety (aim your cursor slightly above the lamppost, may take a few tries). 5) Life saving "we are being pushed super hard and don't have tons of HP" ward. Can spot dives and save you/turn them into kills. 6) Being pushed in and need a ward in lane? Put it here. 7) Anticipating a possible lane gank and the minions are about to push back towards you? Ward here. Basic guide, hope it helps. If anyone has comments please don't be shy. | ||

I only had tribrush warded (was purple), where else should I have put one? What should I have done differently? Popular junglers right now (lee, j4, vi, aatrox, eve) are really good at lane ganking due to high mobilitymixed with cc, so cover yourself there. Also get mid to ward both sides and make a habit of calling mid roams as support. It's helpful to your whole team | ||

I don't really frequent the games too much, and haven't observed any games in a bit. So with that, I have a quick question. Have you lot started doing 1v1s between people when there are not enough online for a full game? It should be helpful for quite a lot of people. | ||

The lack of jungler is really a huge thing because it changes the whole dynamic. You can't do things like call for cover in your lane while you shop or check someone playing stupidly aggressive by ganking them. | ||

If two people go even in last hits with some champion matchup, but then someone else comes and crushes the other dude silly with the same matchup, it's clear that there's a difference in skill. These situations won't come up ALL the time, but you will certainly run into these situations where having experience in 1v1s helps a lot. And most players in inhouses lack basic lane control anyway (and last hitting) so they can fix that too. | ||

River bush ward is usually way too late to warn of ganks. Tribush ward is useless against a river gank or someone that can get over Baron wall. River ward (near entrance to blue) is useless against tribush gank. I usually try to compromise by placing one ward between river bush and tribush, but it's not a great solution. Do I just buy two wards as top? | ||

I usually try to compromise by placing one ward between river bush and tribush, but it's not a great solution. Do I just buy two wards as top? Blue entrance ward is probably the best, but you're right about the tribush problem. The best solution IS just to buy two wards, but if you play very warily and avoid "conspicuous" engages (only you know what this means to you) then just run like fk as soon as you see someone come from tri I THINK you can avoid dying. But you can't be sure. honestly the answer to this is "Hope your jungler is taking advantage of the other one at top by countering or getting other lanes fed." Luckily, unless you're playing a super-carry top (like Jax or something) you can eat a few early deaths and still get pretty powerful (obviously this is super game to game dependent). | ||

No, the answer is that you ward your area and have the mid laner also ward the entrance to your jungle on the left side. This way you'll know if he's coming around as well as if he's setting up shop top. Despite what some may say, warding is not optional and not your opinion. | ||
