When a dueler disconnects (often called a “punt”) in the middle of a match – meaning after at least 1 round has been called by the DUEL official – a grace period of 15 minutes begins.
In cases where the disconnected dueler has not returned after 15 minutes:
- If the remaining dueler is LOSING, the duel becomes an automatic TIE.
If the remaining dueler is WINNING or TIED, that dueler may choose to end the duel in a tie or claim a win.
