@Riot, wil voice commands be ever implemented?

We have few pings and many times they're either ignored (especially in team fights) or people don't know how to use them, no, adding more pings wouldn't be a good thing. Both Dota and Smite have voice commands and you cannot possibly deny the huge advantage it would have in this game. With good players who're focused on the match writing is a waste of time that could get you killed, and it just takes too long.

Take for example a few samples of Smite voice commands:

"Enemies incoming right!", "Ganking right lane", ''Enemies have returned middle", ''Enemies have returned to base", "Attack", "RETREAT!!!",''Enemy missing'', and a long etc. They're very specific and adapted to all the situations in-game. The voice commands are global and LOUD so that everyone can hear them.

I believe this could heavily upgrade the teamwork in this game, people would rarely have to write thanks to these useful tools. In addition, as a sweet plus, if people got used to using voice commands and focused more on the game there could be less toxicity. This is a tool that would benefit a lot more high elo players but low elo players could enjoy using as an immersion tool for communication. And since Riot is bent on making this game more team based (Dymanic Q) and balances things out according to high elo I don't see why voice commands couldn't be implemented.

I'm surprised LoL doesn't have them yet considering how useful they are and it being a MOBA.
