^That

Also, if you're worried about missing them, you can cast on their portrait :O
At least I'm pretty sure you can O.o
Don't quote me on that >.<

If it's a friendly skill, yes.

There's no portrait for enemies though.

If they are opponents, how can you find a portrait?
If you for some reason want to follow my ranked journey to gold, you can do it Here.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

I tried it once and it feels like you sacrifice accuracy for reaction time. Probably just takes some getting used to. Seems like something that can be very effective when mastered. Wouldn't suggest it with ults though if you misclick a lot.

I don't really understand this argument.
How is it harder to hover over someone and press R, than to press R then hover over someone, and click?

I really don't see how it makes it harder to aim, it's essentially the exact same thing.

Also, yes, I meant what moon said.

i think it's pretty much essential to smartcast as a support, so much reaction time is needed to play support, at least well

Maybe if you don't understand the role.

I smartcast almost everything. There are some notable exceptions such as ultimates, Jarvan's E(I smartcast his Q though), Blitzcranks Q, Ashe volley, and gragas Q aswell as a few others. I think it comes down to how well you know the champions skills and whether you have the skill required to take that skill a little bit further.

I suppose I can explain my reasoning best by saying that I prefer playing a way that takes skill. Hovering your mouse over somebody and spamming all your skills hardly seems like skill to me.
