This change while nice doesn't address the underlying issue - Players share a clock and some decks objectively favor grey-area slow play due to their ability to apply pressure in "turns". It also doesn't alter a players ability to control how "turns" starts by intentionally manipulating the clock. This was something that while I have always been aware of as a weathered TCG player, I didn't truly grasp its power/potential for abuse until CookieRun:Braverse Korean TCG Set1 where Yellow vs Yellow mirrors could be intentionally abused/manipulated to 'cheat' an extra combat phase over the opponent. This (unspokenly) became an intentional meta tactic because the game was Bo1 and games usually ate up 95% of the alloted time. There is nothing in these changes to prevent a player from realizing they can have an explosive 2-turn cycle and dragging the clock to a few minutes using grey-area stalling throughout the match and then waiting to look at the clock to manipulate when turns will start and then going off. If chess can set up hundreds of electronic boards and clocks, there is no reason Riot couldnt look do it as well at 3-star+ level events. Yes it adds an inconvenience having to press the clock everytime you pass priority/focus, and perhaps there is a grace period where passing priority adds 5 or 10 seconds to your timer. But this would prevent slow playing. I think people underestimate how disproportionate clock usage can be in some matches and I'd implore some people to go see cases where one player barely used 30% of the clock despite playing the "slower" deck.
