Jungle Timers and My Opinion
Now I am not a PBE member (even though my application has been in for months now) so I can't share my opinions on the new jungle timers in the PBE thread. So here it is!
I believe that the jungle timers are going to be a positive impact for the game and the development of focusing objectives. These are the current issues that will be cured with the introduction of the new timers:
-
The chat can be flooded with smart pings, team play chat, and spam from toxic players that it is difficult to find when the last drag was taken. As a support when I try to influence my team to focus a drag, I have to hold z, and scroll up to find when the drag was last taken. Also I have to remember when the spawn times are and finally put out to my team when it is up. This whole process takes approximately 10 secs at best all while I am standing still or walking back from base. It would save a whole lot of time to just look up and see the next time. Then it is not only me or the Jung that knows when the next objective is.

Also the most recent patches have left much gameplay to be boring and stiff. With the new timers teams will be rushing to the dragon and colliding in wonderful dissaray increasing the threat lvls. In bronze, where I have been plagued this season, many objectives go by without being capitalized by either team. With the constant reminder that the drag or baron ,enemy's buffs are up, the team will be more ready to go for an objective.
So that is my opinion on this wonderful new idea. I certainly wish that I will be able to test out what these timers do and hope to take a walk on the new SR in the PBE. I do see good things for the game that are coming out and hope I can continue to be helpful.
