I've seen a method to use cooldown for commands without having to create any timer.
Somebody has it?

if you don't use a timer, then you need to assign variable[client] the current time when they use a trigger, then don't allow it until currenttime-variable[client](currenttime) is >= n time units.

improper functions, for example only...

PHP Code:

new LastUsed[MAXPLAYERS+1];
public OnClientPutInServer(client){
    LastUsed[client] = 0;
}
public Action:Command_MyCommand(blah, blah, client){
    new currentTime = GetTime();
    if (currentTime - LastUsed[client] < 15) return Plugin_Handled; // 15 seconds hasn't passed yet, don't allow

    LastUsed[client] = GetTime();
    // Rest of command code here
}

I have posted an example here some time ago.

Why'd you assign a variable, and not assign the LasUsed variable the local variable you created?
LastUsed[client] = GetTime(); -> LastUsed[client] = currentTime;

[TnTSCS]

because... "improper functions, for example only..."

I hand wrote that, while at work, being distracted... anyways, it was meant to help the OP get the gist

What if I want to make the cool down start from the begining of round, and wouldnt repeat, only 15 seccond passed and u can use command how mutch times u want? and after respawn in next round the cooldown would be started again.

[TnTSCS]

So, from what I'm understanding, you want to not allow the use of the command until 15 seconds has passed after they spawn?

If so, then:
again, improper syntax, just example:

PHP Code:

new LastUsed[MAXPLAYERS+1];
public OnPluginStart() {
    HookEvent("player_spawn", EventPlayerSpawn);
}
 
public Action:EventPlayerSpawn(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast){
    new client = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "userid")); 
    LastUsed[client] = 0; 
} 
public Action:Command_MyCommand(blah, blah, client){ 
    new currentTime = GetTime(); 
    if (currentTime - LastUsed[client] < 15) return Plugin_Handled; // 15 seconds hasn't passed since player has spawned, don't allow 

    LastUsed[client] = currentTime; 
    // Rest of command code here 
}
