    =[ I really hope not...this should be a breeze to implement (I hope). I am not suggesting something from scratch, hopefully they could reuse some of their code for this new feature as it is very similar to pinging a tower/enemy hero.

    It's good, and needs to be implemented.

    This feature is similar to the ping for defending towers.

    When I ping my allied hero, the message could be something like this,

    "Careful <hero/username>! You might be in danger."

    Does anyone from S2 support this idea? Please comment and vote.

    I really like the concept of the idea, but I find that sometimes when I ping a player it's not to warn them of anything but to direct them to go somewhere on the map.
    This sort of thing may become very confusing if you're not intending to tell someone to get back.

    Possible remedy:
    Instead of alt+click for this kind of ping, perhaps ctrl+click or just another button in general.

    I'll up vote anyway, but some thought needs to be put in to avoiding confusing situations when you aren't intending to warn someone of danger.

    Hmm I see, so there's potentially a whole different scenario where you want to route the player a path in which you want that player to go...

    I'll have to put some thought into that...thank you for your input!

    Very good idea.

    But only one flaw, what if we want to ping to help the allied hero?

    Anyways, Thumbs up from me :P

    Good point...I think as of now if you want to help an allied hero that is potentially in danger, you would either be in close proximity of him or be already tp-ing to the nearest tower...

    if you're nearby and want to help the allied hero, then I assume the enemy has revealed himself and thus you can "alt + left click on enemy hero" as usual?

    I really like your point, but at the sometime I don't want to complicate things or suggest another hotkey because right now I don't even know if S2 would consider implementing this feature. (I really hope they are aware of this thread)

    KEEP ON VOTING! =D
