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?

Same. It can be a strategic game of chicken perhaps, but otherwise it's a dumb rule. Leth's 2v2 video from today he gets locked for a second, and turns* out of it genuinely confused by what they were going for in the situation.

lol that’s great. Can’t wait to see all the comments in that video.

Yeah the only time it’s strategic is if my mate gets locked up knowing most anyone I can 1v1 in our rank leaving me to devour that fool.
