Smart and self casting

[quote=Wintermond]I usually don't smartcast spells or skillshots, I always aim better when I cast them normally. But a situation in which I always smartcast is when it's about life or death and about split seconds, for example getting stunned(Smartcast [[Deceive]],[[Arcane Shift]],[[Riftwalk]] usually saves my ass) or get a spell off a split second earlier than your opponent to defeat him, I always spam shift+X like crazy in those situations.[/quote]

[quote=jhoijhoi]In case people are wondering what all these brilliant people are talking about: SHIFT + (QWER) = the skill cast immediately where your cursor is. So for example, if you're [[ashe]] and your cursor is in front of you and you're running from some enemies and you SHIFT+W, your [[volley]] will cast in front of you, because that's where your cursor is. With this method you also don't see the normal alignment tool (the fan for Volley, the area you can cast an ability in). ALT + (QWER) = the skill cast immediately upon yourself. So for example [[nidalee]]'s E [[Primal Surge/Swipe]] when ALT+E will heal herself. SHIFT + (1234) = shortcut /l, /j, /t etc 123456 = items in the inventory slot to activate their unique actives, or to use a consumable I've never set hotkeys either.[/quote]

[quote=Melarith]I always use both hotkeys. Can save you a lot of time at the end of the day, since you don't have to click - every second matters!^^[/quote]

[quote=Trojan995]I have selfcast W set to the extra mouse button on my mouse - it makes it so I can keep my [[blood boil]] consistent while still watching other parts of the map with nunu.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]I try to use them but then I forget about smart casting and end up accidentally blowing Malphite's on nothing after playing a game with Kass. I much prefer to silently aim my skillshots and such.[/quote]

[quote=Riggsinator]I Shift-QQ on Mundo a lot. I don't see why that ability isn't like Urgot's Q.[/quote]
