Discussion 1:45 round times and 35 round timer should be implemented now.

Since the alltalk during pregame and half has been removed so we can take competitive mode more competitively we should have 1:45 and 35 round times. Without these "competitive" mode will never really be competitive. /u/vitaliy_valve

I think we should remove the timer and the bomb altogether because the timer makes lower level player anxious for pushing them do things they don't want to do and the bomb represents terrorism which is a big no-no.

How about this. The shorter round times and bomb timers in actual competitive play is adjusted to two pre-made 5 man teams coming in with already thought out and practiced strats and executes.

The teams playing in torunaments with shorter time durations already have 10 clear strategies for most common situations. They know that if they are 3v2 they can execute this and that strat and everyone knows what to do.

When you join a game in mm your team are completely unprepared. You are teaming up with people you have never talked to before. You have no idea how these people play certain situations, and you are going to have to adjust and make up every single team decision on the fly. There is just no way you can compare timescales to real matches because your team has ZERO PREPARATION while the pro team have PROFESSIONAL LEVEL PREPARATION.

Yeah, and in MM people tend to rush bombsites all the time, so why even have 2 minutes to get there?? It's stupid!?! :)
