Smart casting better or no?

[quote=cooper56]Got say its required on ryze just start playing him no way you can hit q that fast without smart casting on or all of his abilities.[/quote]

[quote=Mooninites]i smart cast everything, try smart casting on easy champions or spells. Riven is very easy to smart cast on, caitlyn's [[90-calibur net]], Graves' [[quickdraw]], etc. those are really basic ones to start with then work your way up. I actually learned how to smart cast on [[Ezreal]], then switched over everyone to smart cast. Try him first, it will take a few games to get used to but worth it imo. I don't have a direct quote but I was watching SK Gaming's mid player Oceloteworld, and he said that he smartcasts abilities that he needs to get off quickly, so [[Annie]]'s burst or [[LeBlanc]]. But he doesn't smartcast [[Ahri]]'s abilities because they're skillshots and he wants to check the max range. I like smart casting skillshots because I can get them off so quickly, although sometimes I miss skillshots with [[Nidalee]] usually i can get the spear off alot quicker than most people can react which is why i like it[/quote]

[quote=Wintermond]Smart casting is better. There is no scenario where smart casting would be inferior to manual casting. It takes a while to get used to, but that's just improving gameplay, learning new stuff.[/quote]

[quote=Mooninites][quote=Wintermond] Smart casting is better. There is no scenario where smart casting would be inferior to manual casting. [/quote] thats not necessarily true [quote=cooper56] Not sure how smart casting would be good on cait and nid honestly i think nid needs the accurate aiming if you fuck up one spear almost all your dmg gone. [/quote] I play a lot of [[Nidalee]] I pretty much have a ballpark range on her spear so it's normally not an issue. Missing a spear is pretty punishing in team fights, but in the grand scheme of things it won't be. It's actually pretty difficult to miss a spear in a team fight. Even then, [[Nidalee]] isn't designed for head on team fights, so even landing a spear is only minor dps compared to cassiopeia or ryze.[/quote]

[quote=Acid Reigns]^ I agree with winter, the only scenario I can even think of, is if you don't know the size of [[Event Horizon]] :o[/quote]

[quote=Crows foot]I play with smartcasting now. I tried it first one Brand game and totally dominated! Was sooo fun, and I hit my q's way easier. Now I smartcast everything. I have yet to start smartcasting summoners though, might make ignite way easier![/quote]

[quote=sh0cki]Switched to smartcasting due to Cassio and now I turn it off for just few skills on some champions due to that range indicator. Going to try map normal cast on zxcv or similar to counter also these few moments when I need it.[/quote]

[quote=animorte]Well, I haven't tried. I just don't really care to. I prefer improving myself in other ways.[/quote]
