[?] Spades hacking? - Page 26

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.

Yes, because the tenure of the person that posted it is more important than the actual content of their arguments.

Its scary to think that someone who is very high level is map hacking. Like I wonder how much money he has won if this turns out to be true and if it is true what will happen. Like if we had an FA he would be banned from playing and it would be easily enforced but it would be each leagues own prerogative to ban him if its true for SC2 because there is no centralized body to handle things like this (except KeSPA but they are just in Korea).

is it just me or does the OP not know what a 'camera block' is? from my understanding it is when the camera stands still and the player is doing absolutely nothing right? because i went to the camera block at 9:11 on antiga shipyard only to find out that he was tabbing through his hotkeys constantly during that time whilst watching his main mineral line.

it annoys me that people just complain hacker when ever something slightly conspicuous happens.

Camera block is the wrong term it should be called camera lock. It locks your camera in so you you can look at the fog of war or other shit on the map, but it looks like you are just in place. You can still use hotkeys and stuff, but the important thing is you can look at other areas of the map, yet it looks like you are just in one place in your base.

inb4 spades goes to Anaheim and loses terribly.. this is pretty obvious. iNcontroL says he's fishy and so does Illusion, two well respected pros. Spades hacked in BW, and now is suspicious in Sc2.. Until he actually wins a bo3 at a LAN how can he call himself pro or even defend his fishy play? It would be different if he already wasn't a confirmed hacker in BW.. but now he has the audacity to call himself a sc2 pro without any sc2 results.. AND .. defend his sc2 suspicions with one sentence answers mostly pertaining to luck and game sense.

Hmmm, makes you wonder! Once a cheater always a cheater.

I watched the replays. Spades has very immaculate game sense despite never really scouting his opponent. He moves his units blindly into tactical positions. He builds counters to units he has no idea are coming. He reacts accordingly to units he shouldn't know are coming.

if theres no concrete proof of him hacking then the OP deserves to be banned for life because this is the worse thing that u can do to a player, i still didnt get a chance to look over the posts/replays but if its true then spades's professional career is pretty much fucked and even if hes not hacking the damage has been done to his image, tournament organizers will never invite him to a showmatch after seeing something like this

dont post threads like this unless ur 100% sure that u have concrete evidence(i.e: ingame action proofs), u can suspect someone of hacking through gameplay alone but thats not enought evidence, its just a good starting point to start a case against someone

edit: and if ur going to accuse someone of hacking through gameplay ur going to have to analyse more than 7 replays, even if he looks like the biggest hacker in those 7 games its not a big enought sample. u need to analyse like ~100 replays

tbh spades you do play super fishy >_< I played that game recently against you and said basically "wtf this is very hackish" and you said "I play you on my smurf a lot and knew you'd do that" which is USUALLY the #1 "I hack and this is how I will defend myself ambiguously" statement.

I'm no hack expert so I will leave this to those that are but you need to know.. it isn't just a few people that have felt odd about your online game play. ddddddd

If you aren't hacking this is unfortunate but the sins of hacking (even in the past) will always impact you. If you are hacking it's pretty over...


90% of the day i believe people are hacking against me on ladder. Big name players as well. Everyone is just hack crazy now. I stream 90% of my games. I didn't hack in this series, I haven't hacked in SC2. If you want to find things that look suspicious, It's easy. Not one person here can "prove" i hacked, because i didn't. And now my sc2 image is destroyed. So I'm thankful for that. Guess it's time to retire after Anaheim.

Defend the points made and I'll apologize and so should everyone. If you're not cheating, you shouldn't be afraid of defending yourself because there is nothing to lose. Either you play really fishy/"dumb" or you had some amazing game sense in the series, if what you are saying is true.

QuanticIllusion wrote:
Addition to the OP, looked through a little bit more and confirmed OP's statements and made notes where OP could be wrong. Either way it is really fishy play and he is either stream cheating or map hacking, more likely map hacking because he is reacting way too fast for it to be a stream cheat.


Game 1: Antiga
All of OP's statements true
11:02 camera block - is that sharp jump after the block usual? seems really fast compared to normal screen save/basecam
okay so apparently camera block is when i move my map fast or something because im looking at fog of war with some hack? i dont know how to explain this but i dont see anything weird.

What's funny is people dont mention all the little mistakes i make, and missing drops that cost me games, If i was a hacker why would i purposely lose to things like this, wouldnt i see them?
Game 2: ETBD Valley

Not looking at the base after scouting it is really weird..
7:47 push - doesn't even see bunker before pushing, no scans + perfect range
just standard range for a bunker..
13:42 - agreed, I would always send 5 marines or so right away or scan to make sure im not in danger.
he kills marines, and scans, I hold middle watchtower, why wouldnt i prepare for an attack on the right?
16:40 - blind 3 medi drop, doesnt scan to see if there are turrets or anything, possibly just really bad play
no scans were available, i made a move, 3 medivacs can get through a turret even if there was one.
Game 3: Shak

3:55 common if you go CC first and you are being worker harrassed, interesting he didn't scout at all though..
5:08 Rax 2 + 3rd CC is not in his map vision, only on minimap, most players look around with their camera.. not just their minimap when they scan
I'll answer this and whats after together. I needed to immediately know if i need to 3 cc or tech whether he expands or not, my scv scout was late, so i scanned opposite base as well. on minimap its clear he went 3 cc, so it's never going to be a factory, so i immediately went back to my base and put 3 cc down.
IMPORTANT:He scans the correct base without having scouted the other one

Summary: He plays really blind rest of the game, really bad as well, moving armies into spots he doesnt have vision of + never scans after first one. TvT positional warfare requires scans or well placed units around the map, he does not have either. He never goes for any blind 3 medivac drops this game - there are turrets for lucifron he didn't scout.
I played this game horribly positionally, and way behind, I wish i had magic vision to maneuver around instead of getting stomped.

Game 4: Meta

Everything true, really suspicous at 7:30 where he moves his army towards the hellions without seeing, despite the fact he was moving back and forth in same place 10 seconds ago.
random chance

Game 5: TDA

10:50 kind of suspicious but he saw it on the minimap and he already has his hellions hotkeyed - not too important
12:30 he's moving his army + setting rallys over there, not suspicious
17:00 absolutely no reason to keep your viking at your natural once you see medivac + bio going for a doom drop towards your main..
18:20 zero useful map vision at the point, unsieges tanks randomly and then moves to 3rd to kill luci army
19:00: moves back to natural, leaves 0 units behind to defend 3rd even after he realized that he didnt kill the whole drop, then sieges to defend natural + 3rd
21:10 moves his viking before he sees the medivacs on the minimap, moves few tanks + all vikings - not too suspicious but the suspicious part is that he still has 0 map vision, and decides to not defend his natural - no units from luci in sight
-- Stopped watching because it's getting too obvious, wasting my time
Quick Notes: For most of the game he has 0 map vision from lucifron's path of attack to spade's bases. He has a rax on the left for drops + top xel naga but not the xel naga connecting both bases together. Also made 0 turrets to defend his main on the back side, just the top
Everything here is just me randomly guessing, and guessing wrong most of the time, where his army would be. He constantly drops me out of position, moves on my 3rd with minimal army there, If I hack I am the worst hacker of all time in this game.
GaME 6: Daybreak

4:30 this is a really dumb move or he is cheating- he would be dead in minutes if lucifron was doing any other build.
I studied his games vs thorzain, he does 100% the same exact build. I took a risk
16:00 decides to kill rocks, then sees free medivacs at the lower base and goes down there instead
i almost decided to kill rocks a few times, and stopped because i know he can see me attacking them, anything else is chance and standard tvt maneuvering
16:05 looks back at his main - camera block - I noticed this many times-- he always looks at his factorys + starport whenever his army is moving to a good place, in this situation- lucifrons medivacs
no? dont know what else to say, there obviously has to be some way of proving this camera block, but because im 100% not doing anything like that.
16:45 he does it again, same spot
One could say he is doing it to make tanks, viking, medivacs etc. notice how he never goes back to his barracks to make units, always looking somewhere else. There is also no reason to look back at your factories and starport, both factories have tech labs and he only has one reactor starport. This occurs many times later but I stopped writing times here.
From here on, he has whole map control so nothing really matters, even though there are a few more camera blocks here and there.

Game 7: Shattered Temple

6:00 Remember game 2 and 4? Spades went for a viking to prevent uncloacked banshees or drop. This time, however, he makes raven-viking without having scanned and thus, not (supposedly) knowing LucifroN is going cloack banshee.
In most his games vs thorzain he opens cloak banshee. however raven wasnt "anti cloak" in this game. I decided to do a 1 base tank marine autoturret allin, but he went fast vikings so i couldnt.
7:20 He moves his marines and his raven to the location where LucifroN's banshee is going (He doesn't even know LucifroN is going banshees). + rallys starport over there
this is common play? i leave units at front and send units to back of base as well. I know you are smart enough to understand this concept.
14:30 Sieges tank on high ground out of other tank range + good position to defend, moves marines in main away from range of siege tank (it was in range before he moved it) He goes to his natural entry with almost all his army to get a good position to fight against LucifroN forces (which he hasn't seen yet).
you dont want to be caught in your base by someone trying to do tank pushes, common play
16:55 Instead of leaving some tanks on his main, fearing another attack from LucifroN on that spot he sends all of his army next to the golden, right where LucifroN is going, and suddently unsieges to reposition his tanks to the right, where LucifroN is moving.
Note: 0 map vision
random game flow, he also catches me out of position quite a few times
I wish there were more different spawns, antiga is 2 - shattered he got close air, entombed he got close vertical etc. Only games where it was suspicious was Tal darim - he got first scout and Shakuras he scanned the main before even seeing where he spawned. I looked through the replays in depth, not super closely but close enough to look at all the times stated in the OP


Most of my openings and builds were based on his games vs Thorzain in scan invitational. If you watch those you will see he does same exact builds on same exact maps which worked out to my favor as well. I know LucifroN is a better player than me, and I cut alot of corners playing him hoping to gain advantage. It worked sometimes, other times i lost for blatant errors in judgement. I wasn't hacking, nor have I hacked in SC2, and I trouble someone to find definitite proof because it isn't out there.

The majority of scans in my play, I scan minimap, then a second later click to location, which can account for off center views which you claim is camera lock. Other times i actually view fog of war then scan. this is all evident if you watch my stream vods.


All sound rather reasonable. I'm curious how many people in this thread actually watched the vods and have legitimate arguments to disprove any of those. Certainly plenty of people complaining and wallowing in the drama.
I'm watching replays, but strictly to learn and not seeing anything fishy just from that.

this is upsetting. part of the problem is that literally tens of thousands now listen and are aware of these dramas and there is actually money behind all this stuff that used to go on in a chatroom.

the worst part about all of this happens to be the fact that there arn't actually a lot of people at the top of this community. we've become bloodthirsty and uncaring of the aftermath of a failed witchhunt. there is no punishment for being wrong and i guess i just don't trust people enough to go with the flow.

unqualified people desperately feel that others need to hear their opinions. this is going on all over society. it's not just the starcraft community. someone has convinced stupid people that they are qualified to argue with experts. it's pure insanity. i suspect social media is slowly turning everyone crazy without noticing it...

someone needs to quickly find a way to manage this before we kill the few heroes we have purely for our own entertainment. i have no interest in the specifics of this situation but what this all represents is scary as fuck.

talk about killing esports... wow community...

No Gheed is right, stop being innocent.

100% if modding wasn't as good as it is on TL, this would just be a forum filled with people talking like idiots spewing racism / profanity / anger and rage. In its current state its a bunch of people trying to insult others with one liners and then typing "oh now on topic" in order to prevent the bans

I don't like the SC2 community, so much so that I insult it IRL and tell everyone how bad it is. I love the game and watching tournaments but its ruined by all the fakes and liars that just want to see people who love the game enough to compete at pro level fail and burn. Theres been many examples of this in recent times and after this one there will be another

I was curious and started to browse Spade's vods. You can see that his camera stays in a place for a good amount of time (more than 5seconds) maybe he is just a slow player...

I think it's sad people demanded Spades respond to the list of points. It's a distraction from the truth when the list becomes so tedious that the defendant actually forgets what their original intentions were. You'll instead be getting a response to an interpretation, rather than the original thought process, if you force it. I realize the wall-of-force, mountain-of-evidence approach is effectively used by employers and police investigators (like the end of the Dicken's Classic + Show Spoiler +
Oliver Twist
), and that the OP didn't want to be shut down because of lack of substance, but that method has likely been the cause of some innocents going to jail.

How many people here don't like to complain at your job; you just suck it up? Then you do one thing wrong and your co-worker complains to the boss, and you try and respond with the stupid things they do and your boss tells you, "that's not what this is about." Sometimes those who complain first simply win out, as defending yourself is seen as retaliating. The same thing may be occurring here.

Edit: Ah, he has responded by now, but people will probably be hung up on some detail they feel was left out.

Just a thought for people with a lot of time :p one could watch his stream vods and compare his streamed play vs these replays. Does he randomly stare at his base for 10sec? Does he not look at his scouting scv? etc


This along with people who have played him posting replays seems like one of the only options left in this thread. I'm not taking a side to this issue, but it really seems like it wouldn't be to much work for someone to post a couple replays and have people analyze them to see if habits carry over. I know Illusion said he had a replay that he didn't feel comfortable posting because of chat, but that can't be the only one that people have against Spade.

I hope Spades is being honest and actually isn't hacking, because it would be really sad to see him fall back to his old habits. I also think he is being entirely too dramatic about this. His career is far from over if no proof actually is presented that is undeniable. He just needs to continue on and play. I'm sure people will still continue to watch his stream, take lessons, etc from him. A small percentage of people will dislike him, I doubt many of them actually liked him before hand.

Also, would it be reasonable to ask to Edit in Spade's response into the OP's post?
It seems appropriate his full response gets proper attention and not be stuck in mid thread.

uhh when u play thousands upon thousands of games of sc2, you learn where people attack, when they attack and how your units should be positioned. Spades even stated he studied Lucifrons games vs Thorzain. theres no evidence here of any hacking

Hello, I decided to watch these games with the intention of finding one non-circumstantial piece of evidence to show if map hacks were being used in order to try and bring some certainty to this situation, as no matter how much circumstantial evidence there is, one cannot use it to convict someone comfortably. I believe I have found some non-circumstantial proof when watching the first replay.

To see this in the replay most clearly, slow the speed right down.

When a terran places a scan using the minimap it will take his camera instantly to that position with the scan circle centred on the screen.

At 6:23 of game 1 on Antigua Shipyard, when Spades scans Lucifron's base his camera jumps to where the scan is, but the scan is off-center but to the top part of the screen. The only way this is possible is if he was already looking at this area and placed the scan manually not using the mini map and did not click the center of the screen. The only way this was possible is if the screen was locked on his base while he was looking at the fog. You can see in the replay that the screen moved instantly when he scanned to the off center position from his main.

For completeness, at 13:16 in the same game is an example of Lucifron scanning the center of the map using the mini-map. His screen jumps straight to the scan and the scan is exactly central to the screen (where he clicked on the mini-map).

I believe this shows conculsive proof that Spades' screen was locked while viewing Lucifron's base and was therefore using a maphack.

In my opinion, it's not highly unlikely at all.

Also, would it be reasonable to ask to Edit in Spade's response into the OP's post?
It seems appropriate his full response gets proper attention and not be stuck in mid thread.

Its posted at the top of the thread. Not sure how you missed it.
