What about new map to avoid any interpretation? So many complaints about it.

How it's currently (and for years unchanged) defined:

Once three attacking players have entered the 3def-zone, it's position is defined by the third most forward attacking player

The following rule applies, when the ball is 100% in the 3def-zone(-see exception below):
The defending team is allowed to only enter the 3def-zone with three players. The fourth player isn't allowed to touch the attacking players in the 3def-zone and has to make sure they can move freely in all directions.

Exception:
If the ball comes from a defending player and it's possible for the fourth player to bring it out of the 3def-zone without being touched by an attacking player, he is allowed to enter the 3def-zone. This shall only be done though if it is clearly possible and any failed attempt leads into a major rule violation, so it should only be done cautiously!


You might not like the rule like this, buts it's not vaguely set, is it?

Of course the alternative would be a custom map with a strict line which can never be touched or crossed by the 4th player of the defending team.

For me it's more than clear, but I think it's still a problem of interpretation for strikers, because they respect it in different ways. I saw many moments when the striker pushed the dm and that ball didn t come from a defending player, even when I played as dm it happened many times. Some of them would never push me in some situations, but others will never respect the rule in those situations. I will come back with an edit because I want to show you exactly what I'm talking about.
