Can i know what happened in this game?is it a walk over or a 5 on 4 or what

What happened is little complicated.

When the game started (ban / pick phase), Suniya dropped about 3 times, resulting in remaking 3 times. Finally, when the game started (suniya played on 'stupidnaps's account), sirsinister dropped, so again remake. -The- team was warned that the game will be continued 4v5 if another player drops.

This time, the game was played (beyond the creep spawn stage at last, around 10 PM i guess). However, during mid game, again sirsinister dropped (just beyond a save point luckily). Since -The- team dropped over four times, nXt was asked whether to continue 4v5 or allow to reload. As nXt agreed to reload from save point, game was reloaded.

But unluckily, CrazyHomey was not able to join the game due to some saving problem. And game was again resumed from the save point, where two more -the- players dropped. So, it was decided by the admins to disqualify the -the- team, resulting a walkover for nXt.

But at the request of -the- team, nXt agreed to give another chance and to reload the game from save point again. The admins agreed on condition that the final result of the match will be decided later on after admin discussion, in case if -the- teams wins.

So the game was played 5v4, and after some brutal, (suicidal ?) successive pushes, nXt managed to destroy the throne and to win the game. The defense of -the- team was superb, with a razor who was hitting and killing like there's no tomorrow. The final result was  nXt 36/ 40 -the-, with win to nXt. Total play time was about 2.5 hours 

On a side note the leaver items were used by other members in the team from what i heard. i think teams should be briefed on rules such as that in case of these unique circumstances. (rules state that the leaver's items can not be pooled)

Hmm, true RED. 

• "It is allowed to use a disconnected hero, but it is not allowed to give his items to other players or buy any item for the hero. His Item should be remained on himself only."

But -the- team asked from referees if its ok before taking the items. And referees said its ok.

But if there's a rule change, it should be published in the Rules and Regulations as you suggested, and teams should be informed, and I believe none of this has happened  .

Anyways.. Nice Work nXt.. 

Thanks for the summary of what happened. I was unabled to get back online due to a power cut last night!

wtf i didnt drop 2 times.. i only dropped once.. that was a because of a PC restart.... and that drop was also in the beginning when the game started.. so link get ur facts correct next time..

pp pro 

wow i wasnt expecting The to lose....well played nXt .....and respect to the sportmanship shown by you guys to keep the game going without opting to win by walkover due to connection issues.....good luck next week in the quarters vs us
