I think it would be good with a new ping for the game, similar to what League of Legends has:
“[Hero name here] warns that enemies are missing!”
This would be good to differentiate it from the currently only one suitable “… this area is dangerous!” to something more concrete fitting many situations. Examples when this new ping can be used can be for example: When you think that the enemy team is going for a boss or mercenary camp; the friendly team can ping to alert others in your team for stealthers; or when the enemy team turns in doubloons or attempts to capture any other objectives.
What do you think?
There already is!
On the top where you see your team and the enemy portraits. You shift (Well it’s shift for me) and click on the portrait on the enemy that is missing. c:

Default is ALT instead of SHIFT I think. It’s just the same way you would ping your abilities to show cooldowns.
A ping I really wanted in the game would be fountain cooldown tbh.

There are actually tons of little things like this that would help out new players. I wish there was a better community and better educational videos commonly available for people.
I’ll be honest (and somewhat ashamed) in that I played HotS for probably two years before I figured out how to use quick casting…

I really like the voice commands in this game SMITE. It’s like the announcer would yell out " Enemy missing middle" if you type in a short combination.
“You rock!”
“You rock!”
“You rock!”
there really should be like, a bit of a beginner’s guide to pinging. you can ping almost anything that has a UI representation (though some don’t work as expected, like Black Soulstone) & it could be useful to make that function something everyone knows from the start

The idea behind the voice commands wasn’t bad.
Sadly the execution is horrible for new players.
