User blog comment:Aciong forCE/ Lost of early game support ward wars and early defensive gameplay + the solution/@comment-5514182-20140106234731

I see your point. A wards and pots start is fine, but it doesn't really give you any long-term stats. Meanwhile, starting Faerie Charm or Rejuv Bead is ok, but the item will be taking up that slot for a while.
