Please bring back Blitz format or adjust the timer

We're all itching to try out new teams for Gen8, however, I have always felt that many users abuse the timer on Pokemon Showdown. Stalling the timer out until the last few seconds just to spite other users or looking up damage calculations each turn is in my opinion poor sportsmanship.

Games shouldn't routinely last 15 minutes or more when neither player is actually running a stall team.

Please consider adding it back to the ladder, or perhaps reducing the timer in which a player gets a loss due to inactivity to 30 seconds site wide.
 
Blitz ladder coming back would be great, or maybe even an option to turn it on in private battles if both parties agree.
Any chance of it happening in the near future?
 
You can already turn it on in private battles if you use /challenge (user), (format)@@@blitz. As for the ladder, I suppose its gonna come sometime in the future, but there seems to be no ETA on it.
