Fantasy Dota

Fantasy Dota is a feature that lets players create their own team of professional players within a Fantasy League, and compete with other players in the league based on points earned by their team. Creating a Fantasy League requires a ticket to a tournament that supports the feature. These tournaments often come with a Compendium.

It is similar to Fantasy Baseball.

General

 * Players can create one Fantasy League each after purchasing a ticket.
 * Players who have a ticket can join any number of leagues.
 * Each league can hold up to 6 members, therefore 6 teams.
 * After a league is created, players can invite friends for a timed Live Draft to select professional players for their Fantasy Teams.
 * Each professional player can only be drafted by one person.
 * Members who miss the Live Draft will have random players picked by the system.


 * The system will automatically match teams in the same league against each other every week.
 * The team with the most points at the end of the week (Sunday at midnight) wins that round.

Roster

 * Each team can have up to 8 players.
 * Rosters can be changed once per day.

Roles

 * Professional players are categorized into Core and Support roles.
 * Core: Mid-lane, off-lane, or carry players.
 * Support: Support players.
 * Roles do not affect scoring.
 * Each Fantasy Team must include the following combination of professional players by their roles:

Free Agents

 * Teams can drop a professional player from its roster and pick up another player that is not owned by any other team (a "free agent").
 * These requests at processed nightly.
 * Only one request can be active at a time.
 * If multiple teams attempt to pick up the same player, priority is given to the team with the worst record.
 * Player trading is not currently supported.

Scoring
Each professional player will earn a score based on their in-game performance. After each match, a team's score is the total sum of all its 5 active members.


 * In a best-of-three series, each player earns points only for their highest-scoring games.
 * Winning or losing does not affect a player's score.
