when to buy wards (gonna follow meta's lanes):
every laner should always go back with more gold than the cost of the items you want because its pretty much always a good idea to buy 1-3 health pots and 1-3 wards (3 only support). BUT dont stick around your lane at 100 hp (unless you can safely farm under tower or something).
1. top lane
~1 each b
if you b more often than ward expiration, just buy 1 and save it for when your current ward runs out or ward enemy buffs or something
if you really need your jungle to gank and you know where the enemy warded, buy a pink (if jungler hasnt bought oracle)
2. mid lane
unfortunately, you need 2 wards up most of the time. shoot for buying 2 wards any time you dont already have 2 out, and a couple health pots.
3. bot lane support
if you have the 850 or w/e for your next gp10, its more important for you to buy the major component and 2-3 wards. and having boots1 is more important than that major component. keeping your ranged ad safe (and yourself) is more important than your income. (im often guilty of not buying enough wards when i play support)
4. bot lane ranged ad
try to have enough left over for 1 ward and 2 pots every time you b
-if the lane is rough your item and health pots are more important
-if your support had the wards covered that round dont have 2 at a time
idk about jungle, i dont like it or play it
where to ward is covered in that other help thread..
also, [MENTION=139]Kaasoljoyyx[/MENTION], i decided to bind attack move to my mouse scroll wheel... i can never get into the habit of using attack move but it can be really helpful when you derp a click so you dont walk straight into the enemy team. default is a or shift - right click.
