Ok so on all energy based champions (
) you get a HUD that looks like this when you're out of energy:
It's confusing that while your energy bar is yellow you get the blue OOM indicator when you run out of energy. Just change it so energy-based champions don't get the OOM icon. Change this
to something like this
Chembaron Yamada67 votesSo that's why mages get shit on by assassins now. Mages are water types while assassins are electric types.
Kennen is truly Pikachu in disguise, confirmed.
While I agree that it would be a nice visual touch, it absolutely doesn't have priority right here. In the end, energy and mana are both simple resources and this indicator is just there to show you that you don't have the resources needed to cast, unrelated to mana or energy.
Zed genius18 votesQuite annoying that "I do not have enough mana to cast my Zed Q"
Z3Sleeper11 votesYeah what it should be saying is that you're too tired to cast Q right now. Go take a nap Zed.
50000000000000004 votesbrb, need to afk
Akali is SO HOT16 votesYOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH MANA TO CAST THIS ENERGY BASED ABILITY
Tomoe Gozen4 votesBut what happens if i have enough mana to cast that energy based ability? Where can i go and buy an Energy infused Crystal that expands my energy supply?
HungryAngry2SPP3 votesSounds like a Res Evil 4 merchant's quote

rtbf22561824111 votesI think it's to unify clarity between indicators. As in, blue does propably not stand for "Out of mana" but "Unavailable".
Zone of Endless7 voteswhile we're at it can we have the Protoss announcer say "Not enough energy" every time, too?

just started playing sc2 and this has been stuck in my head 24/7
honzakiec4 votesIt would be so complicated, having 1 indicator for - You are not able to cast that ability because you dont have enough mana/energy is best.
Ahpe2 votesShould we then add a custom color over all other champions that use a different type of resource?

Energy and Mana are literally the only resources you need to cast abilities.
Except maybe 
R.
Also abilities that require HP just go blank when you can't use them so that's already covered too.

ult costs a Soul Fragment.
ult costs an Essence of Shadow.
Ahpe2 votes
His ult is just blanked out with a Soul Fragment
Not anymore
KFCeytron3 votesHis ult is just blanked out with a Soul Fragment
And it obviously needs a QoL change with an "out of Soul Fragments" indicator!
Not anymore
Care to join us in the present, 
?
Chembaron Yamada3 votesAnd it obviously needs a QoL change with an "out of Soul Fragments" indicator!
Agreed. Mana is water type, energy is electric type. So let's make a new indicator for Swain with dark type.

aaaustindestroy11 votesLet's make Teemo the poison type! Who would be the Light type?
DuskDaUmbreon1 votesThe rare abilities with a weird cost (such as, say, Swain's ult) can be specially handled.
Ones where you just lack a refilling charge are shown as being on cooldown. Akali's current ult, Teemo's ult, Ashe's E...These all follow this mechanic. We don't need a new icon for this, it's already completely covered by the cooldown indicator.
The only two "special cost" abilities that don't involve health are Swain's ult and Shyvana's ult. A special indicator could be made for them eventually.
Vectros3 votesI think they have much bigger fish to fry than this.

But the Aatrox Ctrl-5 for wings was priority?

I never said it was, so that's irrelevant.
Ahpe1 votesD1C was talking about how such a small thing people were crying for got added to the game. It's relevant.
Vectros2 votesD1C was talking about how such a small thing people were crying for got added to the game. It's relevant.
My original point was they shouldn't be worried about things like yellow vs blue out of mana/energy. Wings fits right in with that.
Meaning if I don't think they should be concerned with out of energy icons because there are more important things, then it's safe to say I probably don't think they should have done the wings either. He commented on the wings as if I thought they were important, but I don't believe they were and never indicated as such-hence, irrelevant to what I was originally saying.
Ahpe2 votesAh ok.
Btw this literally took 6 minutes
Vectros2 votesAh ok.
Btw this literally took 6 minutes
Ah ok.
Btw they still have bigger issues to deal with that are actually pertinent to things like balance. If the game went for the rest of its lifespan (like it has thus far) without an out of energy icon...nothing would actually change.
If some of the big game balance issues continue, the game will probably die.
I don't care about this icon, there's what, 4 champions with energy I think? It isn't even like a quality of life change to help them out. It would really accomplish nothing other than like a little prettier-and the moment that becomes a developers priority is the moment they fail.
Not that Riot has been doing good as of late...

That's why I put it as "Quality of life". They're always working on small projects that we don't realize they've put into the game anyway.
HungryAngry2SPP3 votesOk. but why.
Ionian Vulpix3 votesOnly if when they run out of energy, they are slowed heavily and have a greyed out screen while they wait for it to refill.
I've been playing For Honor lately
SugeMinPikk3 votesThere's no reason for them to be different... the more standardized the UI, the better..
ExplodingFist662 votesenergy champions altogether need to be nerfed
fatherdarius1 votesI miss my Energy & Energy/5 runes.
I had an entire rune page dedicated to Shen. :(
Rouwhorst2 votesShould we then add a custom color over all other champions that use a different type of resource?
Arakadia1 votesThis might make it confusing considering 95% or so of champions aren't energy users and people who don't play a lot of energy champions will have to adapt to seeing a big yellow indicator instead.
It would be confusing for some. Right now, everyone sees blue empty indicator and reocgnizes that they have no resource.
Ęros1 votes"Not enough resources" should be the replacement.
FlameHalbrdOkido1 votesmy question is when are we gonna get more Energy champs?
