Bards, pls ping before you ult.

Many champions rely on their ultimate hard cc to win teamfights, mistimed Bard ult completely fucks those up. So for f**k sake pls ping before you ult.

I agree, but quick question, what's the first word? I can't figure it out like I can all the others.

It does have quite the indicator. I do wish that Riot added what you suggested in. For instance, the change they did to Fiddlestick's ultimate. TK's ultimate. Etc. It would be nice

The indicator only means anything when it is ulting from a distance, when close range the indicator is basically meaningless.

Alt+click ult when preparing to use (new pings added in), then alt+click location. If your teammates don't catch it from that then oh well.

It sounds like maybe YOU should have been the one to ping you were using your ult? Why is it singularly the Bard's responsibility? Maybe we should do a dance before we do anything in game? Because, we know you NEVER need to make reaction plays in soloQ without voice comms....

I was already ulting as MonkeyKing and the Bard ult lands on me and the enemy, making my ult basically do no dmg and we weren't able to punish the enemy while they were cc.

Like who the fuck expect you to ult everyone in the middle of the teamfight when we were cc locking enemy down.

Lol, yeah, that would have frustrated me too. I don't think that's really a non-ping issue tho, that's just a Bard not paying attention/playing poorly.

Pretty much this. Bard's ultimate is an incredibly powerful tool when used right, but used wrong it can cost your team a fight. What happened here was that the Bard simply used their ult wrong, it had nothing to do with pings.

That being said, having a ping attached to it would be good for drawing your teams attention to it for when a Bard uses it as an engage tool by locking down some/all of the enemy team, so that people know what's going on.
