Warding Guide: Vision Wins Games in Dota 2

Vision is the backbone of Dota 2 strategy. Proper warding can secure map control and prevent ganks.

Key Warding Spots

• River Wards: Control rune spawns and mid-lane ganks.
• Jungle Entrances: Spot enemy rotations.
• High Ground: Defend or siege Tier 3 towers.

Warding Tips

• Place wards in elevated areas for maximum vision.
• Use smoke to safely ward enemy territory.
• Deward enemy wards with Sentry Wards or Gem.

When to Ward

• Early game: Secure your lane and runes.
• Mid game: Protect your jungle and push lanes.
• Late game: Ward key objectives like Roshan.

Pro Tip: Always carry a Sentry Ward to counter enemy vision, especially in high MMR games.
