I think its just stupid that you can drop down these to say, chase a wukong or reveal Akali.

I'm not saying they shouldn't reveal at all, mind you; I have a provlem with the INSTANT reveal on drop - thats what we have oracles for.

Sight Wards are there to provide Vision in certain Areas to increase Map awareness.

A Vision Ward has the same purpose, only that it includes invisible Units and also can act as a Counterward. I don't think its purpose is to be a cheap substitute for Oracles.

As such, I think it should have something like a startuptime - after placing it, it needs 10 seconds before it becomes "active" (during these 10 seconds, the ward is inactive, making it invisible to everyone else and not starting its duration.)
