Guild



Guilds can be formed by players to socialize and access additional rewards by earning guild points and shards.

Creation and management

 * All players can participate in a guild, but only Dota Plus members can create them.
 * The founding player is automatically promoted to Guild Leader, and any invited players start out as Member.
 * Guilds must have a unique name, counting guilds that have already been disbanded.
 * Guilds have a tag and a profile picture, which are shown in lobbies and scoreboards.
 * Guilds can hold up to maximum of 50 players.
 * If an invited player is offline, they will receive the invitation the next time they open Dota 2.
 * A guild is automatically disbanded when the last player leaves.

Guild points

 * Guilds can earn guild points, which are tallied on a weekly leaderboard in each region. They are earned by:
 * Playing matches while in a guild. More points are earned if player is partied with guildmates.
 * Completing guild challenges.
 * Guild points determine guild rank, which determines a weekly reward of shards and special perks for guild members. Dota Plus members earn double the amount of shards.
 * At the end of the week, all existing guild points will decay by a percentage.

Partying
If a team consists of at least 3 members from the same guild, the respective team's default banner in game will be changed to the banner of the guild.

Rewards
Temporary rewards can be accessed by guild members depending on the tier of the guild.

Contracts

 * Guild contracts are quests that members can complete to earn guild points and shards.
 * All players have one contract per day, Dota Plus members have two.
 * Contracts are rated 1-3 stars depending on their difficulty. Higher difficulty contracts give greater rewards.
