these reworks wouldnt stop passive play for this reason. people would be scared of feeding and yet wards would be so pointless to buy because of the massively reduced value for money.

TL;DR it's cheaper to play like a pussy, miss a creep every wave and farm at tower instead, than to buy a ward every wave.
