My favourite warding tip: If you're a carry, know a good ward spot, and your support isn't warding, then buy the ward yourself and place it. Warding isn't a "support" job, it's a team job that supports tend to do more often.
I couldn’t agree more. As a carry, buying wards is crucial, especially in the early and mid game. Enemies might be actively hunting or have wards in your jungle. It’s financially manageable since Observer Wards are free and Sentry Wards cost only 50 gold, which is a good deal.
Well the issue is supports who buy all wards and plant them next to each other leaving none for the carry for example. Way too many games where the wards are constantly out of stock because the supports think they are supposed to plant 2139802198 wards 24/7.
the spell lifesteal from dagon translates into more heals for Io's teammate, thereby winning the game. everyone knows dagon is required on Io. maybe read the patch notes before commenting
Small support tip: always bring 1-2 sentrues on your line. Check what wards enemy support has and if you see them disappear, your camp is probably blocked. On low-medium ranks you can do a small funny trick: go towards enemy creep camp (while enemy support see you), stop for 0.5s facing their camp and then run away. Unless they checked your inventory, they'll be 100% sure u just blocked the camp. They put a sentry to deward, waste it, and after that you can actually block it. Won't work if they know how to check your inventory, but low ranks always falling for that :D
@@mrbarry5393 No both supports shouldnt buy two sentries because having two for the safe lane is more important. The pos 5 should stay with his carry harassing the enemies while your pos 3 can usually handle the lane easier 1v2 while the pos 4 is running around disturbing pulls etc.
@@Ex0rzdepends on the matchup mate. The same logic applies for enemy pos 1 so if your 4 can counter their 5 because he had two sentries too it might be worth. If one lane can push hard they might have more use for pulls etc
@@Ex0rz I buy 4 wards at the start. I'm a pos5 main. Although the higher I go in rank the more likely pos4 and pos3 will yell at me. I don't care though because I'm warding multiple lanes anyway.
Hey there. Great content man! I watch all of it and learn so well 😊. Please make a few vids on following topics: - Medusa snake jump mechanic. It's often unpredictable - how evasions, resistances, lifesteals, spell amps stack - how can we noobs keep track of, control and take advantage of side objectives like Roshan, tormentors, side ancients, new exp runes etc. mostly these are ignored completely - how vision changes with daytime and specific abilities (night stalker) and how we can better use it like moon shard on mk while he sits on a tree?
So good advice, we actually take those topics seriously when we play high ranks haha. Some of us use to forget that sometimes, it depends on how are we feeling and those things. Nice suggestion brother.
These warding tips have helped me so much when I play support for my stack. I find it way too often when I am playing a core that my supports have no idea how to ward or there's ALWAYS wards in the shop. As a 4/5 I am constantly checking if they are in stock and trying to always have a sentry on me no matter what.
this is very situational but if you see that you are able to and the enemy offlane is in need of ancient creep farm try ratting and going to place a ward and block the camp(s) if done in a game where enemy supports are getting blamed its really fun to do so since they probably wont deward or give a shit
I got a good mid lane Spot for the dir Team, u need boots and smoke at the Start of the game, for the movemant speed. U run the mid lane down, pass the south Rune Spot, go up and place the ward where a radiant pudge would stand to hook.
i know blocking camps are out of date and can easily be countered. but as a pos5 in radiant, you can quelling or tango the upper left corner tree of the lane big camp and place the sents there but try your best to make it so close and just making the square red - this makes it so difficult to deward since that camp might have the biggest spawnbox in the game - sometimes the enemy support needs two sents to deward it - most of the time you deward it first. If you're on Dire, quelling or tango the small tree on the upper right corner of the lane big camp so the enemy doesnt see it right away when unblocking it, even giving you a chance to deward their sents first.
you forgot to mention how sometimes it's necessary to ward your triangle that gives vision on both 4x stacked camps so my core can actually feel motivated to come and farm them instead of diving tower and feeding. I've done it successfully in loosing lanes and it works
If you don't want to ward, buy a ward and use your courier to deliver it to other player's couriers. If you get lucky they'll deward with your sentry and you get the gold
good day everyone, i just wanna ask on how to switch from observer wards to sentries and vice versa because i cant somehow switch the wards in my inventory
if you dont have quickcast you can just double click the hotkey for the inventory slot where the ward is, if you have quickcast: alt + hotkey will swap them

Actually you should always bring two sentries according to some pro guides I watched. That way you can deward your own camp and block the enemy camp.

Pls we need a video about item builds I said in last video
Save a life, plant a ward.
Yeah, my team just go back farm like support not even exist and i die been gb by 5 hero
If everyone knows the best ward spot, it no longer be the best ward spot.
Thats logically not true. Most know Nutella is the best and it stays the best because everybody agreed on it. Maybe you mean it is not secret anymore
