Ping

The Ping Wheel

Players have methods of communicating with your team without chatting by using Pings. To ping you can:

• Press Alt then Click on the screen or minimap
• Hold Alt or G which brings up a radial ping menu to say: Danger (Up), Defend (Left), Assist Me (Down) or On My way (Right)
• Press V to ping retreat.

These pings can be used both on the map and on your field of vision (like pointing out where an invisible Zeratul or Nova is.)

Messages

The pings will send out different lines depending on the ping used and the target being pinged.

Using the Party Frame

Players can use Alt + Click at the Party Frame to generate various callouts.

• Alt-clicking an ally's Hero portrait informs teammates that that ally needs assistance.

• Alt-clicking a dead Hero's portrait will generate a chat message indicating that Hero's remaining respawn time.
• Alt-clicking an enemy Hero's portrait will ping that Hero's location on the Minimap if they are within allied vision.
  • If that enemy is outside of allied vision, a chat message will inform allies that the Hero is missing.
• Alt-click the Team Level to indicate when both teams are on even Talent tiers, or when one team has a Talent tier advantage over the other.
