Conversely... How can someone tele away continuously without mana? If you didn't build your character with enough mana you deserve to lose for having a bad character. Having unlimited mana just encourages spamming/telespamming anyways rather than skillfully placed shots and movements.
no, it doesn't, that's completely retarded. if i have no mana left and no pool i'm going to stand in a corner with 5 traps around me because chasing is no longer a possibility. it would just make duels even dumber and more drawn out, and make advantage duels like tvn and dvn even more unfair, unless you have tens of thousands of fg to spend on charms that don't even exist outside this realm.

That removed the point of mana builds entirely, what's the point say someone spending 24,000 forum gold to have 4x bmanas so he doesn't have to worry about running out of mana chasing you around while having 1.8k mana opposed to your 500mana char.. Pooling mana is NOT gm in any case and should never be considered GM.. I paid extra for mana on my ammy and circs and rings FOR that purpose, it also waste the entire skill medi as you self stated, life rep allows you to heal, so why not use heal Pots?? Same concept man.
i don't like this. i shouldn't have to pay tens of thousands of fg on a dead game just to have non retarded duels. bmanas should be a luxury, not a necessity. i don't really agree with any of your comparisons either. you can't compare healing pots to mana pots at all; life rep has a GM cap, mana regen does not. i also don't see what the problem with removing medi is about? a ton of skills are "wasted" i.e not used at all in gm dueling. "wasting" an entire skill shouldn't even be a factor here
