But both teams aren't in equal position. A big part of DotA is knowing where you actually stand in the game. So like in this case EG may not exactly understand where they are standing in terms of how much they can contest CoL and how much they can push back. CoL in the driver's seat either has a better idea of this, or it's less relevant. The pause gives EG more time to figure this out and figure things like "I don't think they can stop an AM split push right now even without AM being fully online". CoL has less to gain from figuring things out. | ||

Very much so, all you need is competitive experience to understand how much pausing can completely mess a game plan by allowing your opponent time to think and adapt which they wouldn't have in normal conditions. | ||
