[?] Spades hacking? - Page 2

07:06 KST - method linked here has been disproved here

10:54 KST - Find a full timeline of pro comments (including Spades) in the topic here.

08:47 KST - Summary:
Accusations of maphacking have the potential to destroy a player's career if left unaddressed. Because of the potential consequences, we should be careful about accepting unproven accusations. The principle of 'innocent until proven guilty' should be applied here. That does not mean that there has been a conclusion about this case, however, which is why this thread remains tentatively open.

Please discuss with caution and use evidence to back up your claims.

(also a summary post by an unnamed pro on reddit here)

Won't judge him just yet although this does all look credible and highly suspicious....

Very in-depth research but I would have rather seen this post in the GM maphackers thread to sort of fit the TL trend. In any case I have some replays to watch before I pass any sort of judgement.

This is one hell of a first post - I have been too long into esports to jump to fast conclusions but damn this smells...

Thats about ladder hacking. This is a pro hacking in a showmatch. A HUGE difference.

This is suspicious, especially since it's Spades.

Well, looks like you did your homework on this. Shame that he resorted to this...

I'd like a good terran player to review all this, because I don't see any actual proof.

This is absolutely terrible and a very severe matter, especially in a professional match. Thank you for the work you did on investigating this matter.

What do you define as actual proof though? Short of physically watching somebody load the hack, I don't think you can have what I believe you are referring to as "actual proof".

That being said, since the OP only has 1 post, this evidence should be reviewed

Agreed. There is a thread for most general map hacking to remove clutter but players building a reputation as pro/am competitors deserve their own thread if nefarious action is evident.

seems VERY circumstantial. The only kind of hard evidence is the camera blocks, the rest is just circumstantial rubbish. Don't know if it is enough to convict the guy, but I guess it's enough to promote serious suspicion.
Everyone is either delusional, a nihlilst, or dead from suicide.

I hope people are watching the replays for themselves and coming to their own conclusions before replying with "Spades at it again" or "Spades is sad". It'd be nice to be sure the pain train is deserved before everyone just jumps aboard.

9 second camera block? That's pretty damn strange for a high level player, pretty damn strange. This is fucking disgusting...

I think he would have a main account, I think this is just a throw-away of sorts so in case his allegations are false, he doesn't get witch hunted like our community loves to do.

This is pretty serious, I think his put the nail on his coffin. No team is going to want to pick up someone who hacks, let alone in a showmatch.
