The delay between the two buttons is what causes a lot of players to fudge up their skillshots. Smartcasting eliminates this delay, but does so on the basis that you are confident in your aim. It does this by immediately firing off the spell at wherever your mouse cursor happens to be. So by simply hovering the cursor over your target and thus highlighting it in red, smartcasting immediately fires off the spell at (or towards) that target. To change to smartcasting, you will need to go to your keybindings set-up and assign the smartcasting functions to your Q,W,E and R keys. Note that smartcasting is not the end-all, be-all cure for spellcasting. Smartcasting Viktor's E is hilarity( for your opponents). Cheers.

You mean noxious blast, right? There's also Urgot's acid hunter, Zyra's rampant growth and a few more.
Anyway, smart casting! When to use: with all burst mages, it's a must-use if you want to shut down your enemies before they can retaliate. If you're using DFG (Deathfire Grasp), you can switch shift+1 for item smartcasting. When not to use: on heals, mainly. Most heals affect minions too, so it's better to use the character icons if you're accustomed to it. Can also cause some confusion on ZIlean because you'll be very used to alt+E, so when the time comes to smartcast R, you may accidentally do it on yourself. |

ooh, so smartcasting is good on Burst champs, like mages.
But its better not to use smartcast when you're on a support, say lulu for example. I just used smartcasting on Cassio, And landing her W+Q+E(don't really know her combo yet) Is really easy now. Though i had some problems with her ult cause i'm used seeing that range cone. Thank you for the tips guys. A newbie like me really appreciate all the help.

If you're new to the game, you might want to watch Zekent, he's streaming at the moment. Insane cs, 100 at 10', 170 at 15' and 200 at 20'...with Janna, too! The gold difference really shows after 15 minutes. Couldn't get that in my best game =/

Zyra is really strong. Insanely strong laning potential (I've been doing well on both 3 lanes, although she's kinda squishy so her top isn't as strong as some other top tier champs), great team combat presence (think of her as a ranged Amumu). Her skills have low dmg alone, but when combine with a plant, its damage sky rocketed, and her ulti has huge AoE which hardly can be missed when team fight occurs.
I think she may receive a nerf in the future patches.

She definitely will, her base plant dmg at LV18 is too much if they land...what, 3 hits? That, plus the actual skills plus the 50% AS bonus from her ultimate make her plenty strong. Not to mention 20% passive CDR and 3s CD on Q, all you have to build is grail/rylai and you got yourself a winner.
Hadn't played Gragas all week long, love his ultimate for pushing people away from drake/nashor and stealing buffs |

The real problem with Zyra is her ability to completely destroy an entire team with her ultimate, it's damage is really high, it's utility is really high, and it can span across an entire lane.
If they hit her anywhere, it's gunna be her ultimate.

The ulti's dmg is low if you ask me. It's only at 400 dmg (+0.7) at lv 3, compare to, say, Annie. The problem is the knock up. Most of her skills have really low base dmg and low AP ratio, unless there are plants involved.

Had a match today with a very good and nice people on my team.
Can't tell how many times our ulti's Turned around Team fights because of the amount of cc we had. I was a support Lulu with Zyra,Malphite,Vayne,Jungle Amumu. (normal match) Maplhite Engaged with his ulti after that Zyra used her plants + ulti to knock them up and Amumu flashed in using his ulti, while he flashed in i used my Ulti on Amumu to make sure they didn't escape. And Vayne used her ulti and melted there hp and getting the official pentakill They went down so fast, it was unbelievable.

How come? I believe smartcast doesn't work like that. I've been using smartcasting for almost all champions (aside from TF's R since I need to know the range), and it doesn't self-cast if the target is out of range. Your character will move until it's in range.
The shortcut for casting spell on yourself is Alt + hotkey, isn't it? Anyway, I'm just glad that I have never placed any misplaced heal while using Soraka on creep.
