7. No insta-kill tactics such as teleporting into solid objects. Even if an attack isn’t instantaneous, any attack that could, as a matter of its nature, not be defended against is considered this....
16. “Spirit of the Law” is to be followed. Anything that may not technically be one of these things, but is used to achieve the same purpose as them is banned. Inversely, things that may technically be one of these rules, but would clearly not cause the problems associated with them, may be allowed.

Insta-kill: what about something that is more of an "unavoidable disabler", so like I selected plant man in another tourney, and had him grow the spores that all people have in their lungs in all of the other team (who all had human anatomy). This wouldn't "kill" any of the oponents, but it is an instantanious and unavoidable way that the entire other team is disabled. If the drainer, from the last tourney, was omni directional, I think it might fall into this same grey zone...I guess sort of related to the other question, what about offensive teleportation? could I select blink and hydroman and teleport water into people's blood or lungs? this isn't insta-kill... technically...

Those are both insta-kill. Something that completely disables the opponents team is the same thing. Rather, I suppose it should have been no insta-WIN tactics, since killing isn't really the only factor.
just as a clarification, going by this, especially the "spirit of the rule", offensive use of a FTL speedblitz is illegal then?

Well that's defensible. Especially with 20 minutes prep. Good luck finding a low herald who moves ftl though.
your point proves it though
since so few people move at FTL, it inherently becomes undefensible
the important point being that, KK said my "grow spores" move would be illegal. Technically, it is defensible, such as, if a character had non-human anatomy or some other form of plant control, but since it is essentially indefensible, it is illegal
FTL attacks are, pretty much, indefensible
though, speedsters should be allowed to use them to avoid attacks, trasnport people, etc
If FTL attacks are allowed, I should be allowed to thin people's blood
