The New timer bullshit

The new timer crap they put for baron and dragon make trying to "sneak" a kill worthless now. The other team knows when its gone because it gives not only a global announcement as of 5.14 but a timer to the team wither they had vision control of it or not. I main jungle and this annoys the hell out of me. Why should i even bother trying to have baron or dragon control when control used to mean that i could take it without the other team knowing instead of ooh well lee just took drag at lvl 5 its gonna be up in 6 minutes even though i didn't see it. No that's bullshit and needs to be removed in the next patch. I honestly don't give two shits why you did it. It was a dumb idea for competitive play.

Dragon had a global sound when it was killed, even when there was no vision... So, there is literally no difference other than a different sound and the timer being updated without you having to type it into chat.

Actually you only hear the sound when you're near an enemy or their corpse.

exactly and baron didnt make a sound either. timers were what kept good junglers on their toes. and if a global voice goes out saying a dragon has been slayed then an automatic timer is up it provides no secrecy of secruring one. ontop of that if a dragon before this update was killed and people found out via lane allies/enemys most people still had no clue when drag would be up next. so there was still some sort of control
