When is the /Pause option going to come? Is it ever?

I mean it is in tournament games, so it would not be too hard to put it into reality.

Riot could make each team have 1 pause with a duration of 3-4 minutes. When someone request a pause, the team votes and if the majority of the team agree on the pause, the game will be paused.

This can save lots of ranked, and even normal games, when a teammate disconnects or goes AFK to give him 5 minutes to come back. I can see this being abused when a team is loosing but 4 minutes is not that much time and since the whole team has to vote, at least one person would not abuse. In all I think this is something important missing from league of legends that can be easily included.

Pause should never be included in a multiplayer online game, ever. Except Street Fighter.

Would love to hear your logic here.

On topic though, Dota does it pretty well. Pauses are indefinite but either team can unpause after a short time, I believe.

Why?
