The Art of Placing Wards

Who says Placing Wards doesnt need skill?

There are 2 kind of Ward in DotA.

1.Sentry Wards (375 Gold)(3 Charges)(Last 360 Seconds)
.: Sentry Wards is meant for seeing invisible unit.

2.Observer Wards (215 Gold)(3 Charges)(Last 480 Seconds)
.: Observer Wards are meant for spying since they cannot see invisible unit.
To see...
>BackStabbers
>Rune
>Looking for neutral creeps For helm of dom/Chen/Enchantress users)
>Can also stop neutral creeps from spawning.

First of all there is 2 placce where rune spawn. See Below where i'm standing.

How do i see a Rune without going to right place?

Right Side of River-

Left Side of River-

Placing Ward

Usefull as you can see if your enemy is farming the creeps up there and you can see your enemy if they walked to take rune or to backstab your friend who farminh at top lane.

Hmmm maybe best place to see rune on left River.

hmmm maybe this is the best place for looking for runes & BackStabbers.

Woot 1 Stone kill 3 Bird! I can see the left side and the upper side and somemore i can stop the creep from spawning.

Sentinel:Usefull when you are pushing mid/top lane bcoz you can see if enemy is waiting there to gank you.

Scourge: See up.

Allow you to see 2 Creep location.Usefull when your enemy is farming these creep while you & your friend go gank them.

Allow you to see the rune&right river& the left side of the picture.

How to Destroy a Rune?
