Seeing teammates Trinket cooldowns

Vertrixx·Mar 20, 2019·3 votes·978 views

This was a feature that was removed for seemingly no reason (if there is a reason it's definitely not a good one). I am asking as a suggestion to bring back this feature, so we can press tab and see our teammates trinket cooldowns and stacks. The removal of the feature has done nothing but infuriate players and I haven't seen a single person who plays this game say "I'm so glad that I can't see my teammates trinket cooldowns now" or anything of the sort.

So,

Dear Riot, please add trinket cooldowns for our teammates back into our UI.

Sincerely, someone who is irrationally angry that this feature was removed so we could see our ward scores instead.

Teammate trinkets are for their use, not yours. One less accusation spammed in chat.

LOL, we found who walks around with 2 yellow trinkets available. (I am kidding in case it wasn't clear from the "LOL")

Seriously though, it is very useful to be able to see when an ally has a ward ready or can sweep or when your ADC will get their next ward so you can time your backs as a support etc.

What's next? Only seeing our personal damage in game and not our team so we "don't flame them in post game" ?

Especially in ranked trinket CDs should be visible. At least when you ping them if not at all times.

That is incredibly inaccurate TinkerTantrums. Warding is a team concept, not for individual discrepancy.. This is a TEAM game. As a shotcaller and primarily responsible for vision control on any team I'm on, I need to know who has what available so we can get the proper vision coverage that is needed for the objective. Your point is incredibly solo-queue centered and just flat out wrong.

I see your point, I really do. Captain in charge of the troops. But what if there's five people on a team, and no one is pre-designated as a superior to answer to? I think a lot of the squabbles in chat are mostly about telling other people what to do, and discovering there's other opinions, some better and some worse.
