Its hard to say hes "so fucking good" and obviously you cheat so you can win things, its not like he was winning a whole lot.

Cause he is not as good as other pros.

What does "looking in the fog of war" mean?

Exactly what it sounds like.

Modern hacks do prevent showing whenever you look at the fog of war, Since you dont have fog of war and it would be too obvious when you look at the enemy base where nothing happens. So it locks the camera somewhere over your base pretending you are preparing a macro move or soemthing like that.
Hacking tech seems to be fucking advanced 
They only show you that hes looking into fog of war when he actually clicks into it wich is kinda strange since usually you need like 1/5 of a second or so to prepare your click after you hovered to a new screen position. But spades alwayws instandly clicks there. This was the only proove i could find and it tipped me over to the "Spades is a hacker" side :/ sadly

That's kinda the thing about this... if he's not a hacker (and I'm not weighing in either way) the only way to explain a lot of the things he does is that he's not that good (in comparison to actual top-level foreigners)
If he is a hacker... well, that speaks for itself.

There are three things to explain.
a) Decision making - and your point is correct here. b) Camera movement and the differences between regular games and the suspect games. c) Insanely lucky instances such as when he drops just out of cannon range into a hidden base that he has no clue about.

Man these hacks are more advanced than battlenet 2.0

The new metagame: look into fog of war to make people think you're not hacking since hackers don't look into fog of war since they're actually looking in it but it displays as if they don't with camera lock.

pretty hard to code :D becouse if you always look at soemthing its obvious if you look at nothing its obvious ^^ I hope hackers wont figure this out too soon till then we probably always need a 230 page discussion to get to a conclusion

GG, all this "investigation" turned worthless.
Very little of the evidence was thrown out. He plays suspiciously throughout the entire bo7 and his camera mechanics are totally different than all of the ladder replays he posted and his play is completely inconsistent with any, pro or noob, play. People like you are failing to comprehend the entire situation. It seems you have made up your mind. His camera mechanics isn't that significantly different from his TvT games in the ladder replays he posted. He hardly ever watches FoW (saw it maybe 1-2 times/game the 10 TvT replays I watched from his pack and most of those were 20+ minute games) and he almost exclusively used minimap to move his armies around. Not sure where the concept that he plays incredibly differently mechanically in the lucifron series comes from unless you count in the TvZ/TvP matchups in his replaypack which might differ mechanically because of the nature of the matchups. His play is not inconsistent if you realize that he had prepared for his series, he hardcountered builds that lucifron had played against thorzain and others on the maps, then he mixed brilliant and moronic play for a total of 3:4
Wanted to say this. The latest replays in the week before the match he was not looking at the FoW at all much. Also, 80% winrate TvT, even if playing kind of a turtley style.
Invalid argument/suspiscion to me there.

Yeah thats the thing this little word makes the difference and since you can turn a hack on and off a even better player could hide it even better...
We NEED a anti hack software wich is safe ASAP
If i could code it i would start now. But im pretty bad at coding such a software.

are you trolling? did you watch ladder/showmatches replays? I don't believe you, they look diferent players, different mechanichs by mu....? I watched ladder TVT's and he likes the FOW like 10 times at least per match, and I won't explain what he did in the showmatches, but spades is indeed a hacker

The huge problem with hacking is that solutions to it are always reactionary instead of taking steps ahead of the hackers. Aka you need to know how evil works to fight it 
Just hope this situation will advance anti-hacking methods.
|
Hm Blizzard could invite some hacker to Anaheim to help them out?

|
Heres what Blizzard should do to restore my trust.
Just make a 20.000$ prize to that person who writes the best and most advanced anti hack software out there they have to give insight into the code and the thought process and they will get a job offer to keep the thing running on the long run.
Problem nearly solved.
Even if only a hack-developer could write something like this ^^

Watch the drop at P's 3rd, after 17:10, when the medvics are close to the 'hidden' base, T controls them to load off units just beside the nexus, so he surely know there is something there, but why he's so sure and how could he land the units in the fow so precisely? Find the hidden base, load them off then almost dismiss them until you are done with another harass? That doesn't make sense to me.
2. how many of you will spam on minimap? Again the 2 drop ships, when they set off at around 16:02-16:05, you can find the move command image near the bottom left base, he clicks more than once, the camera of T, though, was set on his natural, so he must be spamming on the minimap. I find it really weird, maybe it's just me, but in my only thought, if you want to simplify the action using the minimap, you shift click one way point and the second mouse click will be on that bottom right base, that's how it goes in normal, at least in my mind. Does it look like camera scroll? That first point is excellent! It looks so unbelievable in the replay. He knows NOTHING about anything in that part of the map, yet times two medivacs to arrive at the same time to the main and to and random base that he does not know anything about. He scrolls for a while over an empty location (in the FOW) and the chooses a drop location that is just outside range of a cannon but close enough to target probes (in between buildings). I wish I had the game sense to drop empty bases (when there are 6 potential ones to choose from).
That is VERY telling, indeed.
