Representing the DCL Community, I would like to invite you to take part in the first Europe 2v2 Ladder organized under Diablo Clan League rules.

LADDER RULES
‣ Team format: 2v2
‣ Map: The Blood Moor, bridge map, without box
‣ All matches will take place in Europe region
‣ DCL rules apply to all duels.
‣ Matches are first to 5 wins (ft5)
‣ You are allowed to challenge 1-2 ranks above you until you get to #3. At #3, you need win the challenge against #2 before you can challenge #1
‣ To issue a challenge you must post in thread, then pm your opponent.
‣You can't challenge the team which is already in the challenge.
‣ If your team lost the match, you will have to wait for 24h before challenging anyone, or 48 hours to rechallenge the same team.
‣ If you are challenged and lose, you must wait 24 hours to issue a challenge.
‣ 5-Days Dodge Rule. After a challenge has been posted, it will stay open on for 5 days.
‣ If the defending team does not accept the challenge, or the match does not take place within 5 days of the initial post, the challenger will automatically win the match due to the "dodge rule."
‣ If you cannot complete your challenge on time it is your responsibility to PM your challenger to inform them and then post in thread asking for an extension. If you fail to do this dodge rule will be enforced.
‣ If you want to change your team composition (e.g. charge one of the character build) you will need to start the ladder again from the lowest rung.

FEW WORDS ABOUT DCL
‣ The history of Diablo Clan League reaches back to the year 2001.
‣ We were founded in the second half of 2001 as D2CL (Diablo 2 Clan League) with a set of rules to fit legit dueling standard for patch 1.09.
‣ In 2004 old pre-1.10 dueling rules from D2CL was use to create PCL (Polish Clan League) with rules adapted to patch 1.10+ requirements.
‣ Over the years countless tournaments have been organized based on our set or rules.
‣ We're back in 2022. Along with fresh League Management and brand new Resurrected version of Diablo 2 there were several decisions to make.
‣ It has been decided that there will be no hesitation to change oldschool rules to make Tournaments more appealing and balanced.
‣ However core principles will never change as DCL will always be teamwork oriented, strategical type of game.
‣ We rebranded our community in to DCL (Diablo Clan League) and also made first step to form the league more internationally with translated set of rules along with english-focused discord channels, twitch broadcasting and more to come.

DCL RULES
https://docs.google.com/document/d/11UHx5KhL-lTH6cpi7qN3YwjEpzrtIRz4G9cJKbTdXc0/edit

Few things I want to highlight regarding rules are:
‣ Difficulty level for DCL matches is Normal.
‣ Teleport from Enigma is forbidden with the exception of Elemental Druid.
‣ Spell Charges, e.g. Demon Limb are forbidden.
‣ Mana pots are forbidden.
‣ Slow Target, e.g. Nosferatu’s Coil is forbidden.

HOW TO REGISTER
‣ Provide your team name / 1st player JSP (character build) / 2nd player JSP (character build)
‣ You can join the ladder with 2 different teams but you have to use 2 different character builds (your 2 teams can't challenge each other which is obvious )

*If you have any question regarding ladder or rules, don't hesitate to post a question or PM one of our staff members.

Interesting rule set without teleport
just some questions for 2v2:
1. can players use 85% res AND an absorb item together? This is not really specified, but I'd assume yes
2. does tg count as an absorb AND max res item?
3. is prayer really allowed? even at lvl1 base its equal to ~100 liferep
4. can paladin use passive charge?

Btw, I'd love to join with someone if this was a single time weekend event or something like that, playing in "ladder event" is a bother

I do not have a team member, but i would sig up on a really good equipped bowa amazon.

anyone interested to team up with me?

LETS DO IT

1. Yes
2. TGV count as absorb and max res items. (one of the issues bowas and barb usually have in 3v3/4v4 that they can't use Fortitude and TGV together)
3. Yes. Basically we can't ban meditation due to the fact that we already ban mana pots however we promoting fair play so all kind of medi running playstyle, avoiding fight in order to rl may occur penalties.
4. Yes, this is basically how paladin move across the map

You can join the tournament phase which will be this Sunday at 8pm CET and then drop from the ladder. Basically the goal of this ladder is to invite new players to our league and join training games.
We play everyday in games DCL1/x, DCL2/x etc. We will start with the league season soon :-)




Welcome bro. You guys can use this threat to search for teammates as well.

*thread.

Is it allowed to use cta for 1v1?
It is not actually specified that it would be banned
So its weird to see pointed out that it is allowed in 2v2, 3v3, 4v4

Cta is banned for 1v1. Basically:

V. FORBIDDEN SKILLS
13. Skills from items (eg.Teleport from Enigma), unless specific rules allow exceptions. <-- this means CTA is banned but we need to pointed out in 2v2+ that it's allowed

niiice!!!!
