    As mentioned here, several new individual "Quick cast with Indicator" keybind options options have been added for spells, items, summoner spells, etc. + self cast variations. While this targeting option has been in the game for a while, you can now bind individual abilities or items this way and other actions another way instead of having it be all or nothing.

    There is also a new option to fire or not fire the spell (while the hot key is held down and indicator is up) when using Quick Cast with Indicator.

    For those wondering, these are the three different cast types in LoL:
    • "Normal" Casting: You hit the hotkey and an targeting circle / indicator pops up. You click your target to fire.
    • Quick Casting: You hit the hotkey and the spell immediately fires towards your cursor or at the target your cursor is over.
    • Quick Casting with Indicator: you hit the hotkey and HOLD it. While HOLDING down the hotkey, the spell range indicator pops up. When you RELEASE the hotkey, the spell fires.

    To reiterate, the new check box option for Quick Cast with Indicator means if you have that style keybound and are holding down the hotkey to aim, you can chose if the spell is fired or not fired when you hot a different hotkey

    I'm using it for a month now, I think that it helps a lot, its easier to hit with some spells or to cancel them if you see that its not in range of your target, thumbs up :)

    Still using the normal quick cast. I got used to it so it's easier for me, though it does seem like a good touch.

    To be honest i dont understand this fully. Ive try some of that and it was all same, used Quick Cast with Indicator and it was same as before.
    Even if it works, holding button while casting spell is almost same as normal cast. Point of smartcast is to have ability to instant cast, no w8ing or aiming with mouse. There is reason why ppl dont use smartcast for all champs. Totally unnecessary

    You can use it as a normal smart cast also, you tap Q,W,E,R or whatever and it will be instant cast. But, you can take advantage of this indicator when you chase someone, or when you position before tfs, ganks etc.
    Exp. for chasing, you are lee and you have clicked to follow where your target is going, at the same time you are holding your Q and aiming it, waiting for the perfect moment to drop it, i dont know if you understood me but it makes some things lot easier.

    Take a look at the video bellow

    my opinion same as branko's. I do not see point of this "quick cast indicator" if you will wait some time to hit a spell, then that isnt quick cast?
