What is Cooldown in Esports?

The waiting time before an ability can be used again after being cast. Tracking enemy cooldowns — knowing a key spell is unavailable for the next 60 seconds — is when pro teams choose to force fights.

Example: They engaged the moment the enemy ultimate went on cooldown.
