Last words:
The trick in good warding is that you can make sure your enemies are unable to gank you, with the minimum amount of gold wasted on wards. It doesn't matter if it's aggresive or defensive usage of wards it all comes down to see your enemies. Try not to stick with the same wardspots all your games but swap around that makes it a lot harder to find and spot your wards by counterwarders.

The Secret art of CounterWarding
Vision is your strongest allie but also your biggest enemie in 50% of the games, so how do you fix this problem? Indeed getting rid of your opponents vision to remain unseen on their radar this helps a lot for your gankers since they can more easely suprisebutsecks enemies. It also forces your opponents to play more defensive since they will be forced to either take big risks or suffer the results. To be a great counterwarder you ought to have supreme map awarenes. But some awsome luck is never wrong either.
Things that ease the job of counterwarding.
- Seeing your enemy putting up their wards by your own wards or invisible/scouting (allies), keep in mind that the casting range of wards is smaller than 800 AoE. So basicly if you place your sentrie ward exactly where the enemy stood when he placed the ward, you should be able to see where their ward was placed so keep track of your enemies, in order to get of their radar.
- Using a Gem of Truesight, keep in mind a gem costs 700 gold so if you're able to destroy 7 wards it has served it's cost. You can keep it in base after your counterward a few wards. It has been done in the past but must of the time the benefits aren't worth the risks. Since if you lose it your enemy can use it against your own wards.
- Using a Necrobook 3, these little fuckers are just plain imba when it comes down to a wardwars, it's like comparing fighting daggers with laser-cannons.
- Being Ranged/Blinker Mobility and the ability to attack the wards that are "hidden" out of melee range is a must to do some decent counterwarding. Also keep this in mind when your enemy has nearly only active melee ward placers some wards can be excluded from the list already.
- Being able to use the Hot Map
- Knowledge about your enemy's support their favourite ward spots
- Being aware of the strategy planned and played by both parties so you can more easely predict where their wards are placed.
- Try to place your sentries in such a way that they cover more than 1 warding spot.
- Don't just destroy your enemies observers, also get rid of the sentries that they used to (try) get rid of yours, else they'll easely destroy your sentries as well and they can replace the same ward if they wished.
- Keep track if some creepcamps ain't spawning.
Additional Tricks:
- Zeus'Bolt grants a small moment of Truesight, it's usefull but you need an enemy in order to cast it so it's rather unreliable.
- Hunting your enemies Crow to steal your enemies wards, it's mean but everything is allowed in love and DotA.
Note: Dust of Appearance does NOT reveal wards.
The Hot Map:
How to use this map:
Try to lure out "un-normal" Behaviour from your enemies in the slim-red areas to find out which ward they've put up exactly. You're estimations she be not more than 800 AoE off since you can still counterward this ward if you're off that far.
Great Counter Wards Placements:
The pictures below show where to place your sentrie and the range of truesight they grand. I haven't shown to to counterward all wards. But only the counterwards which are capable of destroying 2 or more wardspots. For the others, just place them next to the ones shown in the warding section. For all the others try to keep your sentries hidden inside the trees to make it harder for your enemies to spot them.

11. Scourge Jungle Uber Anti-Ward
12. Scourge West Forest Anti-Ward
13. Scourge Secret Shop Anti-Ward
14. Scourge Base Entrance Anti-Ward
Last words:
The trick in good counterwarding is that you're aware of the enemies strategy and aware of where there wards are placed. After knowing that start hunting hunting with sentries without having a single clue will not add much to your team, it's better to resort to a gem if that's the case.
