2.2 DISCONNECTIONS:
Disconnect and unable to reconnect back before the first hero has been killed: teams must take a screenshot with open scoreboard and send the replay match ID, the match has then to be remake in Normal mode(AP) with the same heroes/lanes.
Disconnect after the first hero has been killed:
a) If the game has been going on for the 10 minutes, then consult the rule below. If not then the game continues without the disconnected player.
b) If the game was on going less than 10 minutes before the disconnection of a player and unable to reconnect back, then the game has to be remake unless:
- the team losing their player wants to continue without a reload
- the other team destroyed at least one rax and they wish to continue
- If team 1 have killed 5+ heroes more than team 2 during the time from the disconnection and unable to reconnect, then the disconnect is in the favor of team 1 which may choose whether to continue the match or remake the game. For example: at the time of the save game the score is 35-35 and at the time of the disconnection the score is 42-37 for team 1
A token counts for 1 kill
A tower counts for 3 kills when calculating this, down.
If neither team is in advantage then an admin should be consulted, unless teams can agree to a decision by themselves.
If the players or the host pulled off, then there will be consequences of that action.
If a disconnected player is not able to be present within the default time of reconnecting, games should go on without him.
After a remake all players have to pick the same heroes as before, buy the same items and must go to the same starting lane. On initial creep contact, the players may change their lanes
If the same player disconnects more than 5 times, then the opposing team may choose to continue the match without him (the opposite team is allowed to continue without the disconnected player starting from the 5th disconnection).
It is allowed to use a disconnected hero, but it is not possible to give his items to other players. The items may either stay on the disconnected hero, or be sold so the money is dispersed among the remaining players. Consumables are allowed to use up.
Whenever there's a problem that you can't decide just by reading the rules, then always contact one of the admins. You can contact them on the tournament official IRC channel or by posting in the tournament forum section.
In case of dispute without reasonable proofs, game has to be replayed.
3. PENALTIES AWARDED:
Player Warning: after a warning is given, the game goes on. If a player accumulates 2 warnings during a tournament, he will be banned to play the next game. If the player received his 3rd warning, he gets perm banned from the tournament.
Team Warning: if a team breaks one of the minor rules or several of its players are warned during a game, then the team receives a warning. If the team collects two warnings, then their last game where they broke the rules will be resulted as a Loss for them no matter what the in game result was. Upon receiving the third warning, the team gets disqualified from the tournament.
Game Loss: game loss given to a team means that the team loses the current game no matter what the result of that game is. A win would be awarded to the opponent instead.
Disqualifications: A team disqualified will be ejected from the tournament. They will not be able to further continue the current event. None of their players on the roster are allowed to join any other teams during the tournament. Using any of these players as ringers will result with the disqualification of the team using them.
Bans: A player banned is no more able to play any of the tournament's games. Dodging the player's suspension by fake/multi-accounting will result in the disqualification of the team.
We wish all the teams good luck and having lots of fun playing!
We reserve the right to change the rules in the future.
