What needs to be unblocked?

My club is hosting an LAN event at a school, we have an internet connection but it is filtered. In order to host the tournaments properly we need to give the school network admins the sites we need to be unblocked. So my questions is:

What are the Dota 2 and League of Legends Server names IE. What needs to be unblocked in order to play a game?

For League of Legends you need to turn off blocking of pings. The ports to be forwarded are 80, 443, 2099, 5000-5500 using both protocols.

For future reference go here. http://portforward.com I didn't see Dota 2.

That's great if you have access to the router and are trying to get one computer working. He's trying to get multiple computers access to multiple servers on a restricted network that he has no control over. Ports 80 and 443 are standard HTTP/HTTPS web traffic. They aren't going to be forwarding those ports. The admins might be willing to unblock specific websites for this event, but he can't give them specific websites to unblock unless he's running his own dedicated server and that's the only server they are going to connect to.

Unless his school's IT people are complete dumbasses (entirely possible), they aren't just going to open up the firewall wide open so some students can have a LAN party at school. I say this as someone who tried back when I was in school.
