-0 map vision, no scoot until 10:00
-Snipe ALL my observers when they reach his base (5-6 observers or like)
-Doesnt scoot my army and drop exactly at good moments (very obvious when i'm doing the last push, where he begins to move his medivac exactly when i move my army)
-Reloaded a dropship 1 second before seeing my army who is going to chase him (when he drops my 4th)
-Put turrets 5 seconds after i put dark shrine (not scooted, at 20 mins game)

This game were played between me (GM and OwL, a diamond with a new account (11-1 win/lose after this game)
There's also a KS‡Owl in GM, I think that checking if they have the same hotkeys would be a good thing...

Heart of The Swarm & Wings of Liberty Map Hacker
Hacker name: JohnDoe (also known as LGVictoR , BBQ)
Server: North America (NA)
League: Grandmaster
Description: Starcraft 2 Maphacker that uses auto-production on workers, lack of scouting, poor gameplay mechanics equivalent to a low masters player, and cheeses all of his games.

I have three games that are from professional players that have suspicious gameplay and blatant cheating:

QuanticJakeB (Zerg) vs. JohnDoe (Terran)
Replay: http://drop.sc/311340
Map: Whirlwind LE

Analysis: At the first minute (1:00) of the game, the Terran player directly sends a scv across a four-player map with full knowledge in where the opponent is. He blocks the zerg player's expansion by constructing an engineering bay because this limits the option of the Zerg player in macroing and going standard build orders.

+ Show Spoiler +
QuanticJakeB then decides to build a roach warren (around 4:40) and JohnDoe blindly counters by putting up tech labs, setting-up a bunker and widows mine for defense. This is evidence of one of the features on the program he is using called the production tab. The terran can perfectly blind-counter the Zerg by obtaining the right unit composition and winning the one-sided game advantageously.

+ Show Spoiler +
Is this a pure coincidence, good game sense? JohnDoe perfectly scouts another Starcraft 2 player on the same map and doesn't go cross position. Hmm.. I wonder why...

FXOJimRising (Zerg) vs. JohnDoe (Terran)

In this game, JohnDoe repeatedly uses the same strategy by sending a SCV (1:05) and blocks the expo(1:45) of the Zerg Player. The Zerg player then follows-up with a baneling bust at the front of the Terran Player's wall (4:30-6:30) and the Terran player positions his hellions in order to prepare for the upcoming assault.
The end result is the Terran winning again.

Mystic (Zerg) vs. JohnDoe (Terran)
Replay: http://drop.sc/312840

Between the game of Mystic and JohnDoe, the maphacker terran tries to macro against a Professional Grandmaster Zerg Player. He does the same strategy in blocking the expo and tries to outmacro his opponent. While some movements may not be blatant as others, we should observe carefully at his gameplay mechanics. (Around 5:30-5:40) JohnDoe shift queues his marines and attacks at the overlord that is going to scout his production and tech. While some may argue that this is normal in TvZ gameplay, the overlord is unscouted and JohnDoe has no vision. (At 8:54) JohnDoe moves toward an unscouted Zergling and kills it.

Late Game: Notable instances of hacking
1)When he is controlling his army, his command centers are constantly making SCVs & never selected.
2)The Terran player in this game has lack of vision throughout the whole game and attempts to do medivac drops on unscouted expos.
3) (Instantly) Scans a burrowed Zergling at his 3rd base natural, moves his army to a position when Zerglings try to attack.

Overall, I hope to raise awareness about the rising number of maphackers in Starcraft 2 Ladder and believe that Blizzard will take action upon these players. I am confident that my evidence is very conclusive and hope that the Teamliquid and Starcraft 2 community will too. Thanks. TL also limit on word post

Note: Please submit more replays that you have on this player.
