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.

does anyone know where we can get the spades vs theognis replays, because I want to look that moment over a few times in replay, instead of just on stream? | ||

There isn't a cash prize of a million dollars if he is number one on gm. Him cheating which looks pretty apparent to me really doesn't help him get any better at Sc so really if anything its hurting him get better at Sc. No i'm not saying hacking is right or that he doesn't hack but who cares? Yes cheating is wrong but it's not like he is using cheating to gain anything real(as much as many of you believe that ladder points are real to be truth full they aren't) So for everyone hating him for doing this it's quite ridiculous. and to sideburn i agree 100 percent that the fact that everyone here would get this angry and upset is really silly and extremely sad and that a community as great as this one would lash out and try to ruin this guys career because he got some extra ladder points. and so either 1) everyone says hacking is ok and everyone hacks or 2) basically the competitive (and fair) spirit of a game is ruined.

It really does seem physically impossible as well as almost completely improbable. It has been acknowledged by both sides that there are minor flaws in the replay system, where the screen camera can be slightly delayed or off of the actual location. The scans which were shown from Spades' stream (used by Catz to 'compare') had the center of the scan near the very edge of his screen, and it was only there for a split second before he moved away. This is almost entirely consistent with what was seen in the replay, except in the replay he pulled back slightly sooner. The 'magic scans' can only be confirmed as a hack or not by comparing it with a REPLAY, not an FPVoD, as the replay can show different things than a vod. Of course, this only addresses the 'magic scan' issue, but I'm sure that a test replay of this type of scan shouldn't be hard to find (maybe Spades can provide one?) | ||

I hesitate to label him a cheater depending on what he was talking about -- and especially given how young he is, I think it's not unlikely that he just wanted to loosen up his friend a bit or give very, very general advice -- but that kind of behavior doesn't set a good precedence and is, as I mentioned, just incredibly difficult to police so shouldn't be allowed. (But that is at the discretion of the tournament.) I'm not familiar with the rules at the GSL quals for example, as I've never been myself -- maybe light "taps on the shoulder" are allowed there, though I've never witnessed it on-stream -- which might make him think it permissible. In any case, I doubt Leenock would do such a thing maliciously. | ||

Did you see the review on the other replays where he wasnt hacking? the replays show perfect movement of screen and where he scans... give it up, it's over. | ||

IdrA, do you know anything about the stream cheating/Leenock giving players info about games that Mirhi mentioned? | ||

In this case he would only see unit movements on the minimap but he still has to know what is moving so ... I'm probably missing something there .. Playing 100% throught the minimap is just not possible, means you never scan to get info. From my understanding of the way it works... People are always caught map hacking because they are constantly looking through fog of war, correct? Well this hack that spades is allegedly using is a hack that shows your FPV "locked" in your last view inside of a fog of war while you are peeking around. Say I click someone's main to check out what's going on, if you're watching my FPV, all you will see is my screen chilling in my base. THIS is why the "magic scan" is such damning evidence. The FPV screen locks at the edge while he continues to scroll up and scan the army because his FPV in a replay CAN NOT show him looking into FoW. | ||

If he looks at 100% fog of war even a single time in the showmatch, is he free to go then? Would be nice to get a single read that would convince most people on both sides. | ||

I hope this will manking some of the defenders thinking a bit. im just a random gm player, now a pro or anything. But im 99,9999% convinced he hacked in those games shown on stream vs lucifron and theognis. i would literally bet my life on it, thats how convinced i am. sad for spades that he still lost vs them. | ||
