Halls skip

"Halls skip" refers to taking advantage of the fact that the timer to enter the Hall of Heroes begins every 12 minutes in order to reach the Hall of Heroes without actually playing through Heroes' Ascent. Often, teams will either intentionally leave one member of the opposing party alive until the appropriate time, or, less commonly, intentionally kill the opposing team significantly slower than they are capable. By doing this, they can effectively end a game on a halls timer.

Timers occur every 12 minutes, so within any given hour there are 5 halls timers.
