Hi, My question is:

What is the rule in the case someone has a mac computer... and in the begining of the game he tells everyone do not pick tiny or void because he will dc. If someone picks tiny or void anyways.. and he dc's Can that person be banned? [The person who picks tiny or void]

I would prefer an answer from official ENT staff just for most official clarification.

Thank you.

Haha, it's not the other players' problem to accommodate your faulty computer.

This thread makes me want to pick Tiny and avalanche every game for a general MAC test.

Hard to judge imo - As you can get 2 possibilities:

1) The ones who purposely pick it (to cause the desync)
2) The ones who can't understand english, are afk at start (missing your chat,etc.)

And if the person itself doens't type for a while or click anything (simulating a fake afk), how can you 100% confirm he did it on purpose...? Don't take me wrong, i agree that it's a bs move as well, but it will just generate unnecessary brqs, which most of the times will be denied as you would have 0 evidence to confirm it.

So the best solution is to do as Bilya suggested - that way you dont have to worry about ppl picking it anymore :)
