As I play my arena matches, the axiomatic principles which lie at the most basic level of logic concerning the methods of shaman play lie on the very edges of my conscious mind and step forth into the unconscious. This pixelized representation of me and how I control him transcends the elementary realization that I am not really a troll shaman and I can not wind shock in real life. However, when I formulate a plan in my head as to how to massively outplay my opponent with a well-timed Lava Burst crit, it does not matter. I am not really pressing my keybindings. With a twitch and flicker of a few neurons, that other guy turns into a frog and I am still a troll.

That is because a spells casting time is broken up into several parts.
