User blog comment:Chiwise/Summoner Spell Ignite/@comment-4490167-20111103045041

Making ignite and seismic shard prioritize champions over minions would make malphite and ignite more powerful than they need to be. As it stands, Riot has it so that you need to have good reflexes in order to use these spells in certain cases. There's the `/~ button, which makes this whole issue null and void; learn how to use it and you won't have this problem any more.
