Add time to later rounds, shorten time in early rounds

There's some pretty epic battles to be had late game. You have a lot of units to maneuver, a lot of money to spend, a lot of decisions to make. You also might benefit from looking at your enemy's team now that the field has been narrowed. But so often I get caught out of time, mid-move, mid-purchase, costing me a game. Having invested 30+min into a game, I wouldn't mind having more time to spend making decisions. Especially after the dragon fights, where I've rearranged 8 units to avoid his aoe, and it's hard to get them back in place.

Alternatively, you do not need 10 seconds for the first round, you cannot lose it. I always use the first 3 rounds to take a leak, get a snack, because they take soo long. You do not need all this time early game. If you shifted this time late game, it wouldn't increase over-all game length, and losers could start new games quicker.

You are right!

On a related note, why does the first round even have time in it? The only possible action that affects anything is selling your only unit, which is essentially pointless and rather frustrating when it happens on accident.
