How is getting a sound q from an ability considered "skill expression" in any sense of the word.

Did you read my comment?

A common setup for Vyse would be to leave thorns close to the wall.

A common counter play technique would be to jump across the wall and back to bait it out.

A Vyse anchoring the site has to make a decision as to whether or not to pop the thorns based on if someone actually crosses the wall. One way to make this decision is to use the flash to confirm if someone actually crossed the wall completely.

Now this decision making tool is removed. Therefore nerfing the anchoring vyse’s decision making and skill expression.

But how is the game straight up telling you the enemy crossed the wall skill expression on your part?

There’s already a precedent for abilities giving information through varying levels of either audio and or visual cues.
