It's separate of the Blizzard client so they won't know that you're using it and you won't lose your account over it. Whether or not it's considered cheating, it is a noob tool which is intended to train you to hit your injects (/mules/chrono). If you don't like it, don't use it. The intent is not to give you an unfair advantage, the intent is obviously to train you. I won't use this product because I have concerns about dependency. ie, I fear that if I use the inject timer, then I would forget to inject if I didn't hear the tune. If my opponent used the inject timer, I don't care because it's just a game and I'm not being paid to play. You won't be able to use it at LAN-style tournaments, so for the most part money won't be won or lost as a result of this tool. | ||

You gain an (unfair?) advantage over someone who isnt using it. "But I can record myself and loop the soundfile". First - that's cheating as well (gaining an advantage). Second, what's the reasoning behind it _not_ to be cheating? That a) everyone can do that, or b) that you can do it yourself and dont have to rely on the work of others? Concerning a) everyone can download a maphack. Everyone can easily turn into a stream and streamcheat that player. So if a) is your point, then you endorse stream cheating & maphacking. If it's b), well, you probably didnt build / write the recorder yourself, so you actually do rely on the work of others to gain that advantage. Also - for some people - writing a hack for SC2 is quite trivial. So you'd be ok if I play with a selfprogrammed hack, since I didnt use the work of others & it's trivial? So imho again, yes it's cheating. But does it actually matter? No. It's just another example that the world is not black & white. Even the world of cheating. No one will care if you use it. You can use it to gain an advantage, you can use it as a practice tool only. It's your own personal decision where you draw the line between "over the top should be banned" and "it's still fine". And as long as Blizzard is fine with it - you dont run the risk of being banned (and yes, Warden is actively scanning the memory, so it could easily detect the memory footprint of this program and ban you because of it). | ||

You get a pretty obvious notification right there on the left side of your screen. If that isn't enough and you need some 3rd party software - I kindda feel the problem is the player... This is not needed... This WILL be considered cheating... Not hating on your software... But it's not really something I can see help the community | ||

They can only track programs that actually modify the SC2 client (MPQ editors, etc.) Yeah you're right, and as long as you don't get caught cheating is fine right? I mean, thats the very spirit of competition ... | ||

While people are actually cheating on ladder - it's really easy to report them and for blizzard to look into it. Blizzard is doing a massive effort to prevent cheats - on ladder (which is their responsibility), while they have nothing to say 'bout tournaments. I hope you're trolling | ||

Unfortunately, "show all work" is not a principal that can be applied to a ladder game. The only people who would use this are people who want to improve their gameplay. I don't see the point in using this as a crutch instead of just learning. | ||

'cuz musicians aren't playing REAL TIME against other musicians. It's not like - if a musician drops his rhythm ever so slightly that it will have the same obvious consequences as a vital missed inject... Apples and oranges, bro.... apples and oranges... | ||

Not to hijack the thread or anything, but I made a program similar to this one awhile ago, that *does* keep track of when injects finish/mules expire/chrono boost expires, so it's never off.

So many people spend hours and hours reading or getting programs to help their mouse accuracy or even silly shit like this. When in reality the best way to improve is to just play the damn game. | ||

Yeah, that's what I thought aswell. Not to hate on devs or anything, but bad shit is bad. | ||
