Why don't our Oh shit buttons work as intended?

How dpo you know it isn't intetional?

I'M INVINCIBLE!!!

That's not really a great thing in games, that's why there is a trade off, more along the lines of:

I'm going to die soon, glad I was aware enough to notice it, as in a few milliseconds I WILL BE INVICNIBLE!!

2 seconds before you know you are going to die your healer has plenty of time to heal you away from demise, you need holmgang/HG for when your healer has no time to save you at all. Otherwise you just waste it gaining nothing but a long cooldown.

I agree that they should have ample time, and it would definitely be nice to have HG and Holm function as an actual "Oh Sh*t!" button. However, as they work now it's completely possible to anticipate when you're going to need them and use it to lighten the load on the healers.

Example being Turn 4 when the second Dreadnaught drops, can grab the second one, pop HG, healer tops you off and then can focus on other things (namely the OT) for the duration of HG.
