You have to provide some kind of evidence/proof (screenshots/replays etc.) if you are going to accuse somebody.

Additionally, a supporting comment of what people should be looking for and when will be necessary if you are posting replays/evidence.

And maphack can be hidden on stream.

Really if you had played him before and did 2rax more than once... It would be in his best interest to blind counter. If I went 7roach rush every game and you played me more than once before would you not open blind marauder first?

Someone post replays of your previous games, if any.

I do a proxy 2 gate on a cross spawn map (Deadwing), he decided to throw down a second gateway blind when I show my proxy two gate, and proceeds to save chronoboost for zealots, all before I show my units.

This is the second time I played him, but i couldn't find the other replay. I think it pretty obvious that he is hacking. Blindly walking to kill overlords, bunkers and just the overall game.

Hacker name: MrDemocrat
Server: NA
League: GM Rank 141 (75-45)
Description: http://drop.sc/385801

This is a recently promoted GM. It was brought to my attention by a teammate. A few things I found suspicious:

2:25 - Strange probe movement. Initially begins to move up to scout the main, then seems to change to move behind the natural, finally moves to a high ground near the third and back to the natural almost instantly. Seems odd except that it dodges the scouting drone perfectly.
4:30, 4:40 - Protoss camera pans briefly through the fog of war where lings are gathering, twice.
6:55 - Moves the probe at the other third base as soon as lings are queued towards it. This is suspicious because he doesn't move the probe when the other probe at the third died or when his pylon at the natural was picked off.
10:00 - Moves 2 stalkers across the map and onto creep despite knowing his opponent had at least 8 lings from the beginning of the game already out. This just seems strange because if the zerg had speed, those would be free stalkers, and 10 minutes is almost a guarantee that speed is done. Not to mention his 2 stalkers pick off all 3 lings positioned for scouting on the map before being rallied onto creep.
12:25 - Perhaps the most suspicious action this game. The MSC moves closer to the natural for no apparent reason. In reality, there are hydras and lings in the fog of war between the main and natural of the protoss, and the MSC is being repositioned to photon overcharge both bases.
12:31 - Instant response and warp in. Literally less than a second reaction. For some reason, the camera was panning with the zerg army before the warp in occurs.

These are all the major instances, but it's always suspicious when no attempt at scouting is made as well as strange move out timings. Despite the outcome of the game, I feel it is still worth looking into.

I went 14/14 speed bane, one base muta, counters everything without any proper scout.

he countered your 14/14 by identifying your total lack of expansion. he did not add any defensive measures until after he had vision of no hatch at your natural so that has nothing to do with anything.

the fact that five spores (rather than two or three) came down before he saw the mutas is remarkable but not really enough to prove maphacking. you expanded super late and didn't attack with your lings so he knew you were teching to something, and the only possible options are muta, roach or burrowed infestor. he already had spines down if you were going 1base roach and the other two possibilities are blindcountered by spores. suspicious but not proof. you aren't playing GMs on ladder, for all you know someone did the same build against him in his last game and it pissed him off. or maybe you're not the only person who's ever watched catz

so first 15/15 without expand and overlord first, then he masks his potential of expanding, this is no build order but ok, i believe there are bad players in diamond league on NA so i can chew it.
Then he sees that i dont have expo and ofc normal thing to do is build lings and defend. no problem with that.
Then i move the lings down of the ramp of the natural so if`m not careful to not lose it but in same time he moves his lings also, later for that he calls me for mh, but my thought in game were that he will have speed soon and like any goal of every player it is to clean his natural and counter attack.
His speed finish at 7:52, expo at 8:00 and at 8:10 one spore, 8:37, 2nd spore, 8:43 3rd spore, 9:17, well better have 2 more spores because why not. in the end maybe i m wrong, and then i m watching his match history every zvz, if 10 pool he is going 13pool, if it is 10/10, its 13/13, 15 pool its hatch first.
However, you are correct that i m subscribed to Catz.

This guy doesn't really care about making it obvious.

Gets a reactive forge against my cannon rush without seeing anything.
Changes direction of his oracle to intercept a probe that he didn't see.
Sends a zealot straight into the exact spot where I proxied a dark shrine.

I would say 90% maphack. I'd ask you to watch the replay and tell me if in your opinion he maphacks or not.

Replay: http://drop.sc/386096
Description:

Early game is a bit suspicious, he goes 3 stalker rush into phoenixes (no one does that build, it loses against almost everything) while I go oracle and builds only 1 phoenix while I switch into twilight (all of this not scouted). But it could be, it's still just NA master league ladder.

Other than that, he seems a very legit player, scouts all the time, etc. But then...

I go for a storm drop at around 12:00, when the warp prism is about halfway done, he resumes phoenix production, builds only 2 of them, and sends them straight to intercept my warp prism.

He blindly goes for an all in on my third base without scouting if it was there or not.

At 17:00 , he builds an observer while I was sending the first DT I ever made into his base.
