COURSE OF MATCHES
3.1 If, after the match has started, it is clearly evident that a player is inactive, then the match shall be restarted.
3.2 Starting a game (it is determined by the first several seconds of the game) is tantamount to agreeing to play it on a given server. Then it only depends on the goodwill of the other player whether they will agree to your request to interrupt / change the server. If he does not agree, the match must be continued. The competitor’s departure in this situation will be considered an escape.
