Calling MIA / SS

Question

What is the best way to tell your team that your laning opponent(s) is missing? should blue-ping the map that leads towards them, yellow-ping (Fall back) on top of them? Should you stop for a moment to type [lane] mia/ss or care [lane]? Should you say which champ is missing? I want to make sure that my team knows that my lane is empty and that they could be in danger, but I don't want to become a pest pinging the map constantly when Twitch wants to stealth either. Assume that voice-chatting programs are unavailable. What is the general method that most players know and use?

Answer

I generally assume people know which lane has which champion so I only say: mid mia

There are cases in which I do other things:

  1. I know which way enemy champ is going - I use several pings to highlight champions path with an additional back ping if my teammates don't respond.

  2. My opponent has been gone away - I say "mid still mia, prob [whichever lane is most exposed]"

  3. Enemy jungler walks through my lane - "[jungler] going [direction]"
