Can Ultimate Abilities Have Cool Downs?

I feel like if someone uses an ultimate ability it shouldn't be back up or almost back up when they get back to lane few examples is

Tryndamere his ult is SUPER good at wining close fights and diving because he goes into undying rage and can't well...die so you feel like since he used that you have a window of opportunity to fight him and kill him and this is really the only time you can fight him because if he cant die you cant kill him but the CD is so low he has it up every time making it nearly impossible to fight him 1v1

Rumble His ult is good for engaging and defensive so if he uses it on you youll probably be too low to actually fight him and if you go in on him hes gonna place it on himself and just end up in you dying. The same deal is you would think after he has use his ult once you get back to lane you have a window of opportunity but he has it back again and if he doesn't its close to being back

Garen Not only is he hard to fight in general but even if the fight is close he will win because of his ult and he will have it back for the next fight

I just dont understand why this is the way it is if you play anyone remotely weaker in lane you will always lose and I'm fine with champions being lane bullies thats not my issue my issue is that the window of opportunity is so damn small you cant do anything with it.

Also please note that I'm not saying these champions are broken I'm just saying their ults are on a really low CD

The only thing in the game Riot wants having a long CD is trinket wards.

Well the thing is that Kat kinda needs her ult to do really anything kinda like lux if it had a really long CD they wouldn't be able to do very much

An ult with a 120s CD is on cooldown 10% of the game, assuming you get the ult at level 1 and use it every time its off CD, and the game lasts 20min.

that unfortunately doesn't justify the cool down I need to be given a chance to fight my opponent if they always have ulti up i can never fight them and lets not forget to mention a lot of champions right now get CDR making ult cool downs even shorter and games dont really end at 20 minutes anymore more like 30 35 minutes but either way I need an actual window of opportunity to fight them if i can never fight them thats simply not fun game play like i said I have no problem with lane bullies Im saying the window of opportunity to fight some of them is non extant

You mean off cooldown or? I don't see what this point is? If you use it every time its off CD it means its ON cd for the whole game don't it?
