No Pause Countdown

[Niltech]

@ Niltech:

I have to bump this thread bcs it dies otherwise bcs nobody looks past the second page.

To your point it could be but remember you only have 3 (!) pauses and there are more teamfights then 3.

And if one team pauses to think about the teamfight the other team can think about it too so its not like your in an disadvantage.

Firstly, I know WHY you bump it. Bumping it is like the guy in the freeway who speeds up and waits until he has no more road before he tries to merge into heavy traffic or the guy who walks up to the counter in front of a huge line because he "just pick up [this]" or "buy 1 item, I'm in a hurry". You are unfairly trying to seek special treatment. It's bad enough when people repeatedly bump other people's forums, but that's slightly forgivable. If you want to promote your ridiculous idea, then come up a with a decent one and other people will do it for you. If your idea isn't receiving the attention you believe it deserves, maybe that's because it doesn't actually deserve it.

Secondly, you are wrong, so very wrong. There is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO REMOVE THIS 5 SECOND COUNTDOWN. Sometimes all it takes is 1 team fight to begin the momentum to victory or change the tide of the game. That you don't understand this shows how ill-equipped you are to make suggestions on how the game should be changed.

You suggest that at every pause BOTH teams will have an equal advantage, which will NEVER be the case.

I know exactly how I would use this in a pub. I would pause right as the enemy team is momentarily out of position, then our team would discuss exactly how to take advantage of it, and then execute the plan. HoN is about thinking on your toes, intuition, anticipating not only your enemies's but your allies's actions, and so much more.

This IS what will happen if this change were made. You can imagine all you want that this is a good idea, but S2 WILL NEVER IMPLEMENT THIS. because they aren't stupid and can understand this simple truth, which you would deny. Why do you think a countdown was even put into the game in the first place?
