Notes

Observer Wards are permanently invisible and do not block paths.
Wards have ground vision and cannot see through trees or the high ground above them.
Cannot be placed within 1350 range of the fountain. Cannot be placed in the Roshan pit.
Holding down Control + the item hotkey transfers a ward to an ally by clicking on them.
Blocks neutral creep camps from spawning.

Strategy

It is best to place wards strategically in areas of high enemy traffic. They can forewarn your team of incoming enemy attacks due to their large vision range.
Wards are generally placed on cliffs at the highest elevation, so they can see unobstructed into the areas below.
