Puddle Timer Rework#111

Allow the puddle to shrink periodically, but never fully removing it. As the puddle lingers the endlag for teleport/bubbles can increase. For maybe around 8 seconds they keep the current stats but beyond that every additional 4 seconds it would start to increase the time before Orcane is actionable after using it. This keeps the spirit of having to move and refresh puddle often while also not completely deleting the resource for new players or someone who has successfully extended a combo offstage.

Visually this allows both players to recognize the state of the puddle in two locations on the hud and on stage. The values can be tuned so runaway playstyles are more discouraged.

I like this idea

It shouldn’t have been nerfed in the first place.
You could already camp the puddle, or pummel to counter it

I suggested basically the same in https://rivals-of-aether-ii-patch-17.nolt.io/72, ref making the puddle worse over time without fully removing it. I like the idea of visualizing it by making the puddle smaller
