This is a short summary of rules used at DreamHack. One might have played according to different rules in other leagues and tournaments, hence we feel such a highlight is needed. The most important changes that have been applied today and yesterday are item bans removed, rewritten the rule about gaming platforms, first picks and rescheduling the semis and finals to a later date.



Basic information
Map Version: 6.48b
Game mode: -xl
Bans: Pit Lord Storm Spirit Templar Assassin Sacred Warrior Faerie Dragon Dark Seer Undying
Gaming platform: GG-Client, room "GosuGamers DotA Tournament Room" (can be found in Leagues and Tournaments -> War3 TFT RPG). If your game is not streamed and opponents agree you can use Hamachi or /listchacker.
Format: de bo1. The moment it will turn bo3 depends on the number of teams signed. Semi finals and finals will be played on Friday or even Saturday.

Sign up:
Sign up will be closed at 8 pm Thursday. You cannot sign unless you obtain a password from the forum crew. You cannot add players to your roster after you signed, especially after the Tournament has started.

Before the game
There are three things to decide before the game: side, first ban, first pick. Home team picks the first thing, away team picks the second, home is left with the third. Home team is the upper team in the brackets in rounds 1, 3, 5 etc, and the lower team in the brackets in rounds 2, 4, 6, etc. This rule applies to both loser and winner brackets.

Reporting:
Losing teams reports. One lose does not eliminate you from the tour. Failing to report the result might get you banned from the event

Walkover:
You have 20 minutes to play a game after the page is showing you your opponent. Failing to do that will result in a walkover. With the exception to first round games, this round will not be used unless you have an opponent waiting for you in the next round

Complaints:
You cannot complain to a referee after you started next game or one hour from your last game has passed.

Observers:
Non crew observers are not allowed

Replays:
Replays have to be saved by both sides

Sharing:
Sharing a non-empty Empty Bottle is allowed, so only the bottle owner can pick up runes.
Example: Viper and Techies with an empty Empty Bottle are waiting for a rune. A DD rune spawns. Techies shares the bottle with Viper, Netherdrake then picks up the rune with bottle, uses the rune and returns the bottle to it's owner. Note, that if Techies would pick up the rune first, he could not share the bottle due to in game script that forbids such behaviour, hence our rule not to by pass it.

Item Bans:
Only 2 books and 2 Eul's/Guinsoo's per team

Enemy items:
Items obtained from the enemy can be distributed freely in th team, with the exclusion of DR - once picked cannot be given to team mates in any way including purposeful suicides.

Standard backdooring rules:

Third party programs:
Hotkey Remap, Auto HP bar, Ventrilo or similar are allowed.
