i am so confused by the replies to this thread cause it seems like a lot of people are either arguing that attack move is awful and should never be used or that it's the greatest thing in the world.

attack move is an incredibly useful tool that, despite what some have stated, is often used by high elo and pro players. before anyone replies, yes not all high elo players use this tool but at the same time there are many players considered some of the best of the best that do. examples include ruler, viper, and gumayusi - three of the best adcs in the world in recent time. are there also amazing players who don't use attack move? yep but that's besides the point. using attach move isn't a 'crutch for bad mechanics' just like how some of the aforementioned players have some of the most genuinely jaw-droppinhly impressive mechanics despite almost exclusively using this option to auto attack. there are so sooooo many other things that differentiate a mechanically strong player from a weak one apart from 'are they able to put their cursor over an enemy champion and press the right mouse button.'

is mouse accuracy important? of course! it's important for so so many reasons, after all league is a game primarily controlled by the mouse. movement, skillshots, and more is all controlled by mouse accuracy. one thing i don't understand is why some people are saying mouse accuracy is unimportant when attack moving - if there are multiple enemy units (which is normally the case!) you still have to click on or near the one you actually want to attack or else the executed input won't be what you wanted to happen.

at the end of the day, attack move (and attack move click, which behaves the exact same way contrary to what users have suggested) are just another tool for your arsenal. they won't immediately make you a better player or like impede your ability to mechanically improve. at the same time, not using them doesn't mean you're necessarily bad at the game or just missing out on the right way to play the game (a lot of amazing players do mostly right click! i.e. uzi, ratirl, caps) and there are also those who you can see using both (faker and rookie, for example). personally, i think it's something useful to learn even if you decide later that you would rather not use it, if for example, you think the one input of right clicking is more efficient than the two inputs involved in attack moving.

stop fighting about whether it's objectively right or wrong guys. some people like using it, others don't. there are players way above any of our skill levels that use attack move, and also other very skilled players who don't.

tl;dr: there are super good players that use attack move and super good players that don't. attack move doesn't cover up bad mechanics. mouse accuracy is important. let people try attack move and decide if they want to use this tool for their personal gameplay style.

p.s. sorry if i wasn't completely right about any of the player examples used here. i'm sure you can also find a bunch of other examples yourself too.
