Should Sacrificial Wards be Buffed

As the only counter to map offerings I think sacrificial wards can use a bit of a touch up

Ideally if you use one and it doesn't block a map offering you keep it so it ends up sticking around until it gets used successfully

Also Ideally if you use a ward to block a map offering you shouldn't then still have a 1/40 chance of being sent to that map anyway

But I want to know what you think about it. Should sacrificial wards be buffed in one or both of these ways, are they fine as they are or do you think they need a different change.

    Personally i think the rarity of the offering should made uncommon.

    I would love to see map offerings just not exist in general, but if they’re here to stay then yes successfully blocking a map with a sacrificial ward should 100% guarantee that map doesn’t appear.

    There is also a possibility of diferent rarity, like, a purple warden remove the map from poll, while the green doesn't.

    This is what I wanted to suggest a long time ago. I think Sac Ward shouldn't be used if there are no offerings.
    But it's band-aid anyway and map offerings should be reworked.

    A second type of ward so you get 2x as much wouldn't be such a bad idea for killer at least but survivors definietly need less items in their blood web since they have like 100+

    I mean, dont know how to put it here, but certainly there are people which would be in favor for more itens in the bloodweb for survs, arguing that would be better, hence powerfull itens would be rarer…

    I never understood this offering, like what's the point of going out of your way just to reject some random person's map offering when you could've brought a bloodpoint offering instead? It's just kinda pointless.
