g. During a game

1) Picks & Bans

The hero pool always consists of all heroes the game mode allows and might therefore

change several times during the competition. The game must not be paused during the

draft, unless a drafter disconnects.

2) Pauses


30

Each team has the right to pause the game for an acceptable duration, if a player

announces it at least three seconds in advance and calls a coherent reason (exception:

not necessary, if someone disconnects). The game must not be resumed before both

teams agree with it. When the number or the duration of breaks becomes too high or

long, the administration may force the continuation of the game.

3) Disconnects & Reconnects

If a player disconnects, the game is to be paused instantly. Everyone has up to five

minutes to reconnect to the game (if the same person disconnects more than once, all

times get added up). If this time is passed, the opposing team may continue the game,

unless an admin demands the opposite. The affected player is in this case still allowed

to rejoin later on.

4) Bugs

If any serious bugs occur, the game has to be paused immediately and the

administration decides how to continue. Knowingly abusing a bug is strictly forbidden.

5) Tools / Hacks

The usage of any Dota-related tool aside from Steam and Dota 2 during a match is

strictly forbidden.

6) Ending

A game is finished, when an Ancient Fortress is destroyed, when the majority of a team

leaves on purpose, or when the administration decides on it. (note: A game is not

forfeited, when a player types "gg" or "ff". Always wait for the ancient to be

destroyed!)

7) Rule Violation & Punishment

Breaking of the rules or ignoring the order of an admin may result in a punishment for a

whole team or a specific player. Type and amount is chosen by a referee.
