How to play

There are some few steps you follow to play Haxball:

Step 1: Go to the Game Site
Step 2: Choose a nickname (If you use the same as you have on ESL, it will be easier to recognise each other)
Step 3: Join a lobby, or create one your self
Step 4: Wait for the lobbyadmin to fix settings, and go live!

Screenshots

Screenshots should be provided for all HaxBall matches within 24 hours without prompting from an Admin, this applies to Cups as well as Ladders. There should be a valid screenshot of the game lobby as well as for each of the two games played, if the matchmedia is incomplete or invalid both sides are held responsible and may be penalised.

Valid Screenshots?

A valid screenshot clearly displays the ESL Clock as well as the score of the game, this way it is easy to determine the winner.

Invalid Screenshots?

An invalid screenshot, is a screenshot that does not show the ESL clock. The majority of the screenshots we come across do not show the ESL Clock and are therefore invalid and will be treated as such.
