DEFENSE OF THE ANCIENTS
At first place, all players are expected to behave well. This mainly means not to play tournament games under fake nicks, not to report wrong results to admins etc. Every player should also watch the progress of tournaments he is signed in to avoid delays.
Tournament admin
Tournament system
- version: 6.48b
- we cannot set a tournament system yet because it is still not clear how many teams will participate. Anyway you can count with -XL mode to be played in every single tournament game
- admins hold the ultimate right to change any of these rules or make certain exceptions without giving reasons
- one team in each game is treated as a host, the other team is allowed to choose between two sides (Sentinel/Scourge), the host team must respect their choice
- both teams are obliged to save the game every 10-15 minutes and we advise to save the game even after each major action (first blood, tower destroyed, multiple kills, etc.)
- when a disconnection occurs, the latest saved game must be loaded if it is not older than 15 minutes, otherwise both teams must agree to load
- when a disconnection occurs before 1st blood, it leads to a rematch with certain rules - all reely as long as the bottle is immediately returns to its owner; you can let your teammate fill your bottle at fountain; you CANNOT pick up a rune with the borrowed bottle!!!)
- Pooling is not allowed (buying equipment for teammates by spending your own money)
- it is allowed to buy items to a shared hero if purchased items are delivered to their owner immediately and no new items are created
- it is allowed to kill a teammate
- when one of your teammates leaves the game, you are allowed to sell his items or control his hero and keep the items, items of the leaver can be only used on his hero and cannot be given to other players
- Creepskipping is forbidden (Note that you must not attack tower or other buildings without the support of your creeps. It is permitted to attack any buildings, if you originally reach them with your creep but they were killed in the meantime)
- Creepblock is forbidden (in general, it means you cannot use blocking/slowing skills such as Fissure, Decrepify etc.); on the other hand players are allowed to block creeps by their heroes (but only with heroes, not minions, copies etc.), consuming skills that permanently destroys your creep such as Dark Ritual, Conversion, etc. are allowed
- TeleSiege is forbidden
- the fenced area of any base is considered to be one place which means that you can attack any building in that area if you originally reached it with allied creeps (for instance, you can go to destroy 3rd level tower on upper lane even when you have reached the base area with creeps on middle lane etc.), at this time you are also allowed to teleport into the opposing base area
- it is not allowed to use Earthshakers's Fissure to temporarily "seal" your base (it means to completely block the way across the base entrance so that opposing creeps cannot enter your base and looking for another way), partial enclosure is allowed
- Radiance on Syllabear's bear minion is allowed
- misusing of the game bugs (bug abuse) is strictly forbidden

Tournament system
- version: 6.48b 2on2
- we cannot set a tournament system yet because it is still not clear how many teams will participate.
- mode: -APDUOM
- AP (-allpick): players pick predefined couple of heroes
- DU (-duplicatemode): allows both teams to pick the same couple of heroes
- OM (-onlymid): creeps spawn only on middle lane and the other two lanes are deactivated
- team wins when:
- 1) both opposing level 1 and level 2 towers on middle lane are destroyed 2) reaches the difference of 5 and more kills towards opposing score (it means 5:0, 9:4, 7:2, etc.)
- in general:
- only predefined couples of heroes can be picked (there will be 7 predefined couples revealed to the players just before the tournament starts)
- couples are drawn randomly before each game
- team captains toss up before each game and the winner draws the couple
