A pair of pings that could massively increase communication.

macromite··1 votes·383 views

both pings are self based, so they really just need a prompt in chat and a sound.

an engage ping.

and a disengage ping.

these need to be separately rebindable, so you can use them very quickly, and the both refer to the player pinging only.

it could say something like,

elise is engaging

or

mordekaiser is disengaging

simple, increases communication immensely, is much more readable than using one of the other pings, and due to not needing to be targeted can be used when you engage or disengage more reliably.

how about back off pings that dont piss everyone off? harsh sounding.

don't think that's possible. it's not the pings themselves, nor is it their intended meaning that gets under people's skins, its you questioning their judgement that ends up breaking them, so pings that can't do that are the best kind.

the self disengage ping is also meant to do that as well, but in a more subtle way. if you ping that you're leaving, your team is probably less likely to engage, due to them knowing that you left without needing to check mini, so long as the audio queue is distinct enough.
