I’ve been noticing a lot of people asking for VoIP support built into the game client, but on a much more basic and universally accessible level I’d love to have a team notification menu akin to those found in the Dota 2 Chat Wheel or CS(:GO)’s quick-voice commands to “level the playing field” in terms of possible team combinations.

The hotkey-accessible presets could be used to announce incoming enemies, open positions on the map, warn teammates of the current enemy count and more without having to stop movement to type out a message. Some players have these hotkeyed to chat macros, which I believe isn’t quite in the spirit of the ToS, but they do seem effective when the information is at least out there (getting your teammates to act on it is something different entirely).

Would you find a feature like this useful for non-premades that don’t have access to VoIP? If so, which messages would you consider “essential” to have?
