Subject: Potion cooldowns

Whoever thought this up needs to be thrown into a pit full of Louise Fletcher clones with lawn mowers strapped to their arms. Blizzard's story goes something like this: "The number one thing players asked for was a cooldown on potions because they didn't like spamming health." Which players were these? The ones who couldn't win in PvP because they forgot to buy potions in town?

Yes yes, you get health globes, but these tend to dry up when you need them the most.

What's the harm in at least reducing the cooldown to something sane like ten seconds? To compensate, remove one of the two health globes that spawn when you're running away from champion group 1 and accidentally aggro champion group 2.

. . .

I'm kidding. They should take out potions entirely. You don't need potions when you have dyes for your Solemn Monkey Pants of Greater Laxative.
