They did try a few things. First was the sight stones which helped. Kind of. For laning it's enough but I can never make the gold for them for the laning phase because. Well. I'm buying wards. You can't just hold onto a ruby crystal for five minutes and hope you'll be fine you have to always have a ward on ya.

The ruby sightstone does help alot for later game but it really falls short because it's just more generic wards. Where the hell is the pink sight stone? Would that be too OP? Possibly buying something that would greatly preserve my money?

They recently gave it another try with making it to where if someone else takes out a ward for you, you get to share the gold they don't get to take all the gold, ya know. Because there was always someone watching you while you do things like that and they have a thing for last hitting wards. It would probably be a fair trade given that it's easy as hell to get ganked dewarding the jungles and rivers.

Getting like a refund on your wards being taken out a minute into putting them on the map would be some sort of incentive to de-warding not a top priority.

They also changed up the elixir. Now it won't go away when you die. Which is fine that was a nice enough move.

They did actually make some attempts at doing so but like you have to have vision of the lane to push or allow a gank or prevent a gank so it's top priority to remove them so you'd have to cripple the benefits of de-warding for there to be any sort of progress made on that front.
