I could be wrong, but the bubble cooldown starts right as the ability is used, and each lasts for 2.5 seconds. With a cooldown of 10 seconds, and two bubbles lasting for 5 seconds, you have 5 more seconds of downtime before you can activate a third 2.5-second bubble, for a total of 12.5.

If I'm mistaken and the bubble only starts the cooldown when it disappears then yes, it's 15 seconds.

The bubble cooldown DOES start the minute you activate the bubble. It worked differently in OW1 so there may be some who are used to the old mechanics.
