EPT[?] Spades hacking? - Page 69
| Forum Index > SC2 General |
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) | ||

Spades stream cheated during showmatches that he played while he lived with me at what was the Reign house. It's a carry over from the stream cheating that many Koreans do in the Korean prohouses (Both Spades and Artist have confirmed with me that Koreans frequently stream cheat in team leagues and showmatches against foreigners out of pride). If ever I saw it happen when I was in the house, I would immediately try to stop them, but I know on occasion it still occured, most notably in a match Spades played against Gatored last year. About maphacking, I have no idea and have no opinion on the matter other than either option wouldn't surprise me. I would want to say though, that cheating occurs way more than people realize, and I actually would not be so hard on him for this evidence, even if it is true. Players better than Spades actively cheat, particularly stream cheat or simply ghosting, because of how easy it is. Example - Leenock was over a player's shoulder at MLG Providence helping them during a game, giving them hints in Korean. It's pretty common. Well...thats interesting | ||

I'm baffled as to how this thread is stilll going and those so called "analysis" are taken seriously. So fucking disgusting Completely agree, take any replays of anybody and taken out of context anyone will find something suspicious... This is witch hunting honestly.... We all do things not conventional in our games , if you take them out of context then you'll find lots of not normal things... | ||

They have not said he is 100% a hacker. They are going through replays and gathering evidence. The evidence is damning. But a trial shouldn't be streamed to the public, regardless of who the person is, because even if the person is innocent this way, they will be treated as if they're guilty by the community | ||

We're his sponsor, we're the admins Wrong, SC2 is a public e-sport, the community are entitled to have their say and "judgement". I got a serious headache watching people try to market this whole mess for viewers clearly looking to make Spades look bad. So for the record, WW hosted the showmatch, Spades is on the WW team, WW is looking into these accusations, WW will consult experts and WW will release a statement after a conclusion has been drawn. Your credibility is on the line Oh and as a bonus, WW would love to know who actually posted this disaster in the first place. Irrelevant. | ||

He saw a flash on the minimap for a split second. He moves his entire army because he *KNOWS* Lucifron is doom dropping him and there is NO CHANCE of a multipronged push. *sigh* these games vs Ognis aren't looking great either. also the seige tank crawl is weird. | ||

I never had 2 monitors open and stream cheat or anything. Why would you say something stupid like that. So stupid. The fact that you arent defending your self tooth and nail right now to that post says everything. You will never attempt at being a pro in esports again. Just please admit what you have done and gracefully bow out of the scene. | ||
