I don't even know where the ~ key is

by that logic wouldnt it be cool to use exhaust on baron or dragon to cut their armor/MR and lowering their damage?

That's something I actually want to happen--or have a re-examination of the approach entirely. The advantage of an over-ride key is consistency (you always know that when you push it you only target champions), the disadvantage is that it requires the user to manipulate it (and know about it).

The tricky part is leaving the strategic option to do something you only rarely want to do while not making it entirely arcane. Of course, since the tilde key is currently entirely arcane, we're not really solving that very well I'll bring it up to the responsible parties again, because I agree like crazy.

Davin: ultimate baiter.

First creates outrage, then solves self-created outrage

Why is it not rebindable? I mean, for heaven's sakes. Why should such a USEFUL function be bound to that specific key which also is not on every keyboard.

Otherwise, I still think no one really uses ignite on minions.

Aim your spells better enough said

Well, Ignite on minions helped me survive once :/
Just press ~

i don't understand why it's even possible to ignite a minion....
why the hell would you want to ignite a minion?!.... makes NO sense at all, time to fix it instead of "oh just hold the secret key before you use ignite"

let me tell you a story, which made me facepalm myself. I had dived alistar with 12 HP under his turret, he of course flash causing me to lose target of him and hit the minions I just needed one auto attack but no matter how hard I tried Ashe when after the minion in the end I died I know it was dumb to dive the cow. but I really thought it was a quick kill flash away

if I had known about this feature the pain that derp cause me Q.Q. could of been prevented

What about you press ~ if you want to ignite a non-champion instead of the other way around?
