Personally, I have every spell but two on smartcast (anivia wall and karthus wall) and have the dumbcast version on the alt key, for when I want to be 100% sure of area/range.

I think my overall biggest problem is I have never used hotkeys properly and never bothered to try and force myself to learn. Even in SC2.

So I can't use modifiers like Shift properly while playing---smartcast + indicators is out for me.
I personally don't see a disadvantage to dumbcasting some things though, especially the vector-targeting abilities.

I smartcast all spells. Even rumble ult and victor laser.

It took awhile but I got to the point where I could do it on Rumble. But man, that was an embarrassing learning process.

Before I played rumble I wondered about that. The first time I played rumble I did it on instinct.
Is it really that hard?

I mean, it was like a one game learning curve, but there was at least one missed kill because I just derped and didn't line up the smartcast properly.

So you looked like every na pro rumble besides balls? Or wx sona?

My personal battle cry.

They won't bring back barrier though. No one at high elo used them and in my games at low elo I'd often just get two kills with them a game. It was a useless summoner that promoted passivity by preventing many dives if anyone actually got it.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

For that ban poll two pages back, can we add an option for "add a 4th ban"?

I use smart cast with almost every spell and recently I've started trying to at least dumbcast at least once with using shift so I refresh my memory on how a skill works and what it's range is, helps quite a lot.

Ecco for example dumbcasts most of his abilities fwiw, so you can definitely do just fine without smartcasting.

dumbcasting is only viable at a top level in a really, really low latency environment or you end up tripping over your combinations too much.

If you're up around 80-150 latency you can't use dumbcasting on any rapid targeted ability champion like ryze without a loooot of practice or occasional faceplants

Except for karthus Q, hue

Lux's new range indicator is really nice, and I haven't noticed it since I was smartcasting everything. I've also never had much issue with vector target skills and smartcast, but take this statement with a grain of salt as the only times I ever play viktor and rumble are in ARAM

My current system is to have smartcast on QWER and safecast on shift+QWER. My 123456 items are on smartcast too, but sometimes I want to safecast wards when I'm trying to do one of the tricky over-wall ones, but as I'm setting them I'm like OH NOES THAT'S WHAT JOKE IS BOUND TO WHAT DO

Smartcast on QWER, dumbcast on ASDF, skillups ZXCV.

Move what was on ASDF/ZXCV before around as needed. My pinky coordination sucks too much to use shift/ctrl. :|
