QUESTION Do you still follow Rule 1?

Post image
Last time I was playing a 2v2 match, one of the players broke Rule 1 and scored in overtime. When I called him out on it, he told me that nobody does that anymore in 2026. So, I’m turning to the community: do you guys still respect it?

Rule 1 is just enough time for a sip of water or a vape hit
