Fistful of Tangoes: Revised rules

The fun 1v1 tournament by BeyondTheSummitTV has its rules revised based on community feedback.

Fistful of Tangoes is a 1v1 tournament that was started this Tuesday. It is a BeyondTheSummitTV production in which famous pro players face off against each other for a total of $500.

The community however had concerns regarding the rules and format and the hosts LD and GoDz responded.

In a reddit post, David 'GoDz' Parker announced their revised rules and format change:

New Format:
- An individual match-up is comprised of a Bo3
- Players are given 3 possible hero match-ups (as before)
- These hero match-ups are manually chosen to be as "fair" a match-up as possible and have received input from various players and casters
- Each player must veto (privately) one of the hero match-ups.
- If players veto different match-ups, the remaining match-up is the one played.
- If players veto the same match-up, the match-up used is randomized from the two non-vetoed match-ups.
- Players then play BOTH sides of the match-up to comprise of Game 1 and Game 2.
- If one player wins both games, they are the winner
- In the event of a tie, there will be a game 3 decider

Game 3:
- 1v1 Shadow Fiend to decide the winner
- Cheats should be enabled, as one player will need to "-createhero nevermore" to get their hero
- No items are allowed (spawned heroes don't receive gold)
- No runes are allowed (already we aren't stimulating a standard 1v1 matchup, so we will take out this luck aspect)
- First to ONE kill or ONE tower wins

It is to mention that runes are still allowed.

These rules will apply to the 2nd round of the tournament only, meaning that the 1v1 match-up Funn1k vs KuroKy will still be played under the old rules.
