It's indeed not as easy as that to maintain map control, thats why i said "tries". CV + wards is a very strong combination for that (See supports), but if we go all-in yeah CV + wards + smite is even stronger of course. The whole thrill of playing squishy characters is always about dealing your damage while somehow not receiving any, that's why i found assassin nocturne without wards nor CV to be completely unviable (life's hard for melees).

My point here being that yeah, i confirm Twitch and Eve can be real problems if they made you a top priority target. Not so much Wukong and Shaco for example, who can hardly run through the whole sight of a ward (let alone a CV) without showing their big red icon and direction on minimap at some point. Actually CV->R->E+W is one of the worst nightmares of an escaping shaco. I also confirm than any oracle beares must be shut down before loss of all wards, because CV on its own is best at "filling the gaps" in your overall map vision (for example where you can't ward, or need emergency sight for ult/baron check/...), "cooperating" with wards i could say.

Worst case scenario: i was once against a twitch who rushed FM, and oracle for counterwarding, because i was getting fed on early ganks. By the time we killed him, they had shut me down in jungle many times (incredible slow with mallet + twitch W, and his allies were immediately jumping at me, ranked game i think). Every build has its counters really.
