Floating combat text, crits

So I've made up my own floating combat text system, and I wonder if there's any way to remove the default crit damage output text. I guess you could make a passive spell with a buff then make a trigger with random integer (% crit chance), but then I'd have to make a bigger trigger for each ability level.
And I don't want to remove my floating text, as the default text spawns on the critting unit, not the damaged unit, as in my system. Any Ideas?

This thread contains similar information (you basically use the same method to achieve something else).

I think this post (taken from the previously linked thread) covers most of the information you need.
The colors are Alpha, Red, Green, Blue - setting the alpha to 0 should theoretically make the text invisible (this isn't the case for regular colorcodes in WC3, so I'm not 100% sure if it will work for that).

If changing the alpha doesn't work, maybe setting the lifespan to 0 will (though in some cases '0' is seen as infinite :p).
