ESWC publishing DotA rules

DotA is a game that becomes more popular in eSports day by day and attracts lots of people.

Good news about the game and the community comes almost daily, since more and more new tournaments and events add DotA.

Recently it was no other than the Electronic Sports World Cup (ESWC), that announced DotA to be one of the official game titles for 2008.

Just a few minutes ago they published the rules, that begin as follows:

"Defence of The Ancients - 5vs5
Game version: latest stable map (currently 6.48b)
Game mode: Extended League Mode (-xl)"

You can download the entire rule package as a pdf file here from ESWC!

"It is not allowed to trap enemy in trees intentionally." Furion may not use sprout, unless it's a misclick!

#4 not in nations , that is <3 but they made a mistake i guess ~~

but the rule about trapping into trees is great =)

Haha Backdoor allowed :P

This will change the game style a lot i think. I really want to know how the proteams will handle this rule.

...anyway the "trapping in trees is not allowed rule" seems quite odd to me....

Should be sued and hanged under judiciary calls . Backdoor is a serious offence :D . But unlike metagame strategy , I believe this will opens up the ' risk ' factor in the game .. tp scrolls packed in inventory . About the rules for not allowed to trap enemy in trees intentionally ... HEY ! They did some balance u see . Backdoor is available but u cannot sprout opponent ... Quite a good trade :D TP in ... summon Necro and ur team joins u in the raid ... No sprout for backdoor !~!~
