Starter:
A "Starter" is defined as one of the five players established in the Team's starting lineup for any

Disconnections
In the case of players having disconnections, games should be paused by using /pause command.
The referee will only make a judgement in the following situation:
(1) Disconnection happens to all players due to an issue with the server, and the match is unable to
continue.
(2) One or more players are unable to reconnect in the first 2 minutes of the game mark.
(3) Selection Error.
In the event of an erroneously-selected Champion pick or ban, the team in error must notify
Garena official (or notify the opponent if Garena Staff isnt around) before the other team has
locked in their next selection. If so, the process will be restarted and brought back to the point
at which the error occurred so that the team in error may correct its mistake. If the next
selection is locked before the team in error gives notice to a Garena official, the erroneous
selection shall be deemed irrevocable.
Referee Judgment regarding a match which is unable to continue may include, (a) restarting the
game or (b) awarding the game to one of the team.
(a) Restarting the game
In most cases, both team will have the same pick and ban champions, including summoners
spell. Unless there is a case where bug occured during champion select phase such as unable
to change summoners spell.
(b) Awarded Game Victory
In the event of a technical difficulty which leads Garena officials to declare a restart, the
Garena officials may instead award a game victory to a team. If a game has been played for
more than 20 minutes on the game clock (00:20:00), the garena officials, in their sole
discretion, may determine that a team cannot avoid defeat to a degree of reasonable
certainty. The following criteria may be used in the determination of reasonable certainty.
(1) Gold Differential. The defference in gold between the teams is more than 33%
(2) Remaining Turret Differential. The difference in the number of remaining turrets
between the teams is more than seven.
(3) Remaining Inhibitor Differential. The difference in the number of standing inhibitors
between the teams is more than two.
Unfair play
The following actions will be considered unfair play:
(1) The use of any cheat program and/or map hack program.
(2) An intentional disconnection
(3) The use of any settings exceeding the standard and permitted settings
(4) Clearly allowing an opponent to win a match.
(5) Unsportsmanlike behavior or, in general, disruptive (e.g. shouting), inappropriate and/or
unprofessional actions directed towards another player (even inside the game).
(6) The use of a program bug that is determined by the board of referees as being unfair.
(7) During the course of the event, the board of referees may determine other actions to embody
unfair play.
(8) False declaration of surrendering (e.g. typing gg/it’s over).
(9) Any “unnecessary chatting” during the match.
“Unnecessary chatting” means any chatting other than the cases listed below: (a) Greeting
messages between the players; (b) Any message to highlight game errors or bugs.
If a referee decides that external conditions (Press, Team Leader, Player, Spectator, etc) are giving or
have given an unfair advantage to a team, the team may be given a warning or lose by default at the
referee's sole discretion.
Teams that want to report their opponents for unfair play should do so during or immediately after
the game to their game referee.
Upon discovery of any player committing any violations regarded as unfair play, the offending player,
at the sole discretion of the board of referees, may receive a warning, a forfeit loss or, in extreme
cases, be disqualified from the tournament.
