Hotkey Request: Target Champions Only + Player Attack Only Click

SirPurrr··8 votes·8,163 views

It's awkward not to have this on one key. The reason to use this is so that you don't accidentally move when you're trying to target a player. For example, let's say you have just "Target Champions Only" pressed and try to click a Yasuo but he dashes past where you're clicking. Without "Player Attack Only Click", you simply move to where you clicked.

It's an annoying and pointless mechanical error that feels more random than skillful. It's just something needlessly frustrating. Having to hold both buttons is a hassle and I think it's not too much to have this as a single key option. I don't think anyone uses "Player Attack Only Click" outside of this sort of specific scenario anyway (when you want no movement command issued by accident). If you're trying to avoid accidental movements while farming, you'll be using attack move and not this.

summary of how this is different from just target champions only:

basically, you issue an auto attack command in addition to just targeting champions. no movement occurs if you do not click on a champion.

with target champs only, maybe you just want to use it for a point and click spell etc., well this would make you automatically auto the targeted champion (wouldn't be able to use point and click spells). the purpose is quite different.

no, that's just the target champions only key

what I'm looking for isn't in the game without using two keys

using it as a toggle also isn't good because you can't Smite, can't use a blastcone, etc. and if you try to switch back to the regular mode and just once double tab it or mess up, you're dead. it's worse than not using it at all in many scenarios. I've actually tried this and as I was going to go over the blast cone top lane with a teammate for a gank, I was in the wrong mouse mode. my teammate dashed over the wall and I was 1.5 seconds late to the fight due to the misconfiguration. he died and we lost a free kill.

nothing exists for what I'm asking for here and the alternative solutions are either awkward (pressing both keys as I often do) or error prone

Rebind it to a mouse button, make it a toggle, then develop muscle memory to use it consistently.

naawww. That's for noobs. Real pros right click only.

Lol so like attack-move on champions

That would make ADC the easiest role overnight

No, it doesn't work like that. You still have to click the champion. It's already possible if you press both keys but it's not very smooth.

There's already a button for that

The whole hot key area needs a TON of work. For example, I wanted to set level up to one of my mouse buttons + the ability key for the secondary option and it didn't let me. It would only allow me to set it to the mouse button for the whole thing. I don't have unlimited mouse buttons so clearly that's not an option and I had to manually edit the text file for this basic feature.

I also think that making the minimap bigger should be an option outside of the text file. I don't actually make it bigger but I don't know why the scale is so limited and I know some players modify the file for a bigger minimap.

Use a macro on a mouse button that presses both keys at the same time. then bind that mouse button to PAOC.

I don't think that's allowed. That's why I wish they had a separate key for it.

You made the mistake of using Yasuo as the target here. The "balance" team will read this and forever prevent this from being implemented. Alternatively, if they do ever implement this, they will require a massive buff to Yasuo as a hotfix because this will inevitably make him less ridiculous in their eyes.
