User blog comment:Big Lupu/Why do wards take slots?/@comment-3450702-20130608221418

Tbh, Sightstone's 3 permanent wards PLUS two ruby crystals worth of health are WAAAAY more than enough. Also supports get a full 6-item set in maybe like 1 in 100 games, and at this point can always get an oracle. I've never had sightstone be a burden for me yet, and I've played quite a bit of support in season 3. Really, it's awesomestuff.
