*Teams will pick a number (from 1-16) in a box. If for example a team picked number 1, then that team will fight whoever picks number 2 (and then 3 versus 4, 5 versus 6, and so on…).

*Top 4 Bracket System
- Teams who ended up in the top 4 on the last tournament (that I will acknowledge) will have an automatic seeding in this tournament.
- The top 4 teams may also wish to withdraw their automatic slot if they wish to and draw a new letter/number in the tournament. (Just telll me or text me or pm me here)

-They wont meet the one of the top 4 teams until the 3rd rd of the tournament (in case they keep on winning as well as the top 4 teams).
-DE, Mineski B, Project D and Skies are entitled to this (pls tell me asap in case your going to join and you wish to draw from the following letter/number)

*Team immunities will be up to the first round.

Game Rules:

*All matches will be in an alternate all pick mode.
The team who wins the coin toss will choose only one of the following:
(1) host the game and gets to choose either Sentinel or Scourge side of the map to start
(2) be the team that chooses the first hero.

*As of this writing, the version that will be used in the tournament is 6.48. But if ever there is a change in version, I will update this asap.

*The game will enforce a complete no feeding rule:
- No borrowing of any items
- No ally control
- No buying of items from other teammate’s gold
- You can use your healing pots only to heal your teammates but you cannot pass it to other teammates.

*All heroes (except Faerie Dragon) are usable in the tournament as of this writing

*There won’t be any item restrictions as of this writing.

*Aegis of the Immortal and Cheese cannot be pass on to teammates once a players gets it; that item is considered yours.

*Backdooring is allowed

*Bugs Exploitation (Penalty or Game Loss): No Exploitation of any known old or new bug discovered during play. Explanations like “exploiting/activating the bug unknowingly”, “we had no idea this bug existed” or similar excuses will not be entertained. Participants/Teams are expected to know what these are.

*In case a bug/glitch has been abused, pause the game and notify the arbiter. He will review and decide if that said team has broken the rule and may subject to a penalty/disqualification.

*Finals will be a best-of-3-match. Whoever wins the toss coin will get to pick what side they want to play first (either sentinel or scourge) then that team will choose if they want to pick first or second. In game 2, teams will change sides and the other team (who picked second in game 1) will pick first. If in case there a game 3, it will also be an alternate -ap match but they cannot choose all the heroes that were picked in games 1 and 2. Another toss coin will occur.

*Semi finals will be a 1 game match.

*The 3rd place match will also be a 1 game match. Normal ap draft rules will be applied.

*Regarding fatal errors or player disconnection, the initial rule is a remake of the game when no melee/range barracks from both sides is destroyed. However if the game is save before the dc, then the game will be continue from the saved game. When one team has an advantage over the other (regardless of kills, items, and/or barracks destroyed) and the game got fatal error (or disconnected) by one, more or all players, the game will be pause and the arbiter will review the current situation. The arbiter will have the final say and decide what will happen in their current match.

*In case the game is restarted, teams cannot change the items that they have bought for their heroes; each hero must have the same set of items from their previous game.

*In case there was a disconnection due to player inetreference, then the game will be reloaded provided there is a save game. If the player somehow cannot return (due to save lost from that particular computer), then match will continue on a 4 on 5 disadvantage.

*Other than what is written above, there maybe added or change of rules and regulations concerning the tournament. I’ll just update this as the day goes by.
