And that is exactly what I've been talking about above! Blizzard is the one to blame here.


Blizzard is utmost concerned about the SECURITY of an event, if they don't even have that basis how can they monitor competitive play.


I wasn't talking about that. I was talking about they fact that they know what people think of think, meaning they have access to the information in this thread, but are still inviting him to this event.


They have between that email and when the event starts to investigate it themselves, they need to check the validity and authenticity of the claims, draft public messages, and formulate a suitable solution / punishment if need be if varified. Again, their first priority is an event they are hosting goes off with out ANY player recieving threats of or actual violence, two wrongs don't make a right.


But why not look into the cheating claims first, then issue a statement regarding them, either banning him or allowing him based on their analysis, then worry about the security of him?

Fact is, if Blizzard knows for certain he is cheating and he isn't invited, then they don't need to worry about his security. If they know he isn't cheating, then they can state that and provide reasons (which would settle people down a lot anyway) and then worry about his security if people are still fired up.

No reason to work on getting additional security for someone who might be showing up. Put the horse before the cart.

It sounds more like Blizzard has decided he is coming and is now planning for his security.


What? It has nothing to do with what it sounds like after it's been relayed through 2 different people who might be lying, it's just standard procedure when accusations and threats come out for players / representatives that the organization be first concerned about their safety, then the validity of the claims. Same thing works in law, when a person recieves allogations of a crime and threats of violence the law has to protect him first before trial and prosecution.


Well that makes sense when you look at it from the legal point of view. I was viewing it from an economic point of view, as in the why bother spending time (read: money) on something when that may not happen, when you could be spending your time on finding out if it should happen. Point taken.

Well, this is pretty obvious. The blink action sequence is EXACTLY identical to every other blink hacker out there. The blink hack used by blink hackers has a very unique and obvious fingerprint. It generates the following sequence of actiosn:

  1. Deselect all units
  2. Blink one individual stalker
  3. Issue attack command to said stalker
  4. Re-select previous selection (without the use of hotkeys)

With this in mind, let's look at the actions in the replay:

This guy is clearly hacking, there is no doubt.

Hopefully MLG sends him on a bus home the moment he gets off the plane.

Because Blizzard's top interest is expanding the esports via public relation and relevance in the mainstream, security at these events is absolutely more important than what small economical loss they would take to take the time to investigate it fully, the plane ticket / entrance fee /cost of investigation to Blizzard is paltry where as its image as a company that hosts safe, systematic, and competitive events is much more important.

Actually a solid point. Blizzard is a company and they care about money just like every other company. If they realize they are losing money by paying people who actually hurt their game like this maybe they will care a little bit more.

One other thing that can be done against hackers is go spam and ruin their sites where people download the hacks.

To be completely honest, if I didn't love SC2 so much and knew that by hacking I could get an invite to WCS, I would do it to help clean up E-sports. And I'd show up and act like the biggest troll ever and do Bitbybit SCV all-ins and Gaulzi style cannon rushes. And I'd play random, especially vs Protoss players.

Blizzard needs to deal with this crap. This isn't Zack's fault, this is Blizzards fault. Hate the game, not the player.


Yeah, thing is that as long as there is a market for hacks they will exist no matter what the community and devs do(although I agree that Blizzard could be doing more about this.). Its moronic to blame the company and the game instead of the idiot that is commiting the crime itself....

Its definitively Zack's fault, he chose to hack, he chose to take up a spot from legit players, he chose to accept the spot. He is not someone trying to prove a point, he is a toolbad who decided to cheat in a videogame. Nothing more nothing else.


Guess you guys have never heard this quote:

The world is a dangerous place not because of people who do evil, but because of good people who look on and do nothing about it.
-- Albert Einstein


So is it right for Bin Laden to be who he was?
You are making it ok for people to be who they are even if people are doing horrible things?
As off topic as my analogy may seem and how unrelated it seems im trying to show you what your saying doesnt make sense. Your logic is that of an enabler, that its ok for people to do bad things because thats just who they are. I understood completely but the fact someone could say something like that is quite astonishing to me.
Evil people exist, pretending that their existence is the problem, is the problem! Instead the problem is not dealing with them correctly or not dealing with them at all. You even admit that as long as there is a market for hacks, people will use them. And thus, the problem isn't the hackers, the problem is when people don't deal with them.

Blizzard can't stop people from hacking, but Blizzard can punish them for doing it. And if Blizzard doesn't punish people for it, they are just as guilty as the hackers. We can't change what the hackers will do, but we can change how Blizzard will respond. That is why this isn't Zack's fault, the man is what he is, but Blizzard needs to step up to the plate and lay down the law. That is what Einstein was getting at and it is the only way to deal with the problems in the world.


That's a very narrow minded interpretation....
but neither hackers nor criminals should simply be accepted as if they are doing something reasonable.


It isn't about accepting criminals as if they are doing something reasonable. It is about accepting the fact that people who do unreasonable things exist.

And when you accept the fact they exist, you can deal with them. EDIT: In the lines below you can see evidence that Blizzard isn't accepting the fact that Zack as a hacker exists.

You are upset that people are trying to bring justice to this matter? Not Zacks fault? shame on you, prob one of the most foolish things i have ever read. It wasn't Bin Ladens fault either for the world trade centers cause the US should have come down on other convicted terrorists harder. Jesus man i honestly cant believe someone could say such a foolish thing


You don't understand what I've written. I am not upset that people are trying to bring justice to the matter. Zack is who he is, you can't blame him for being himself and that goes back to what I said to MrCash. You have to accept the fact people like Zack exist, and they are who they are. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't act to stop Zack from being himself. And that is what Blizzard needs to do, stop the hackers.

I don't think you understand, this isn't about right and wrong. This is about accepting what is. "Bad" or "Evil" people exist. We need to accept that. That doesn't mean we enable them when we accept they exist, in fact it means the opposite since by accepting they exist we deal with them in an appropriate manner (ie lock them up, rehabilitate them, fine them, whatever it all depends on the crime).

I think the problem here is the word accept. I shouldn't have used it. I am not saying that we should accept criminals or hackers as one would accept someone into a club, I am saying we should realize they exist and accept their existence, thus allowing us to deal with them.

If Blizzard isn't doing anything about Zack, then they are denying the existence of him hacking, so they won't deal with him. Or worse, they could accept the existence of him hacking and still not be dealing with him, but they would never admit that, it would ruin their integrity.

But allowing someone to come like this hurts E-sports, just as the post right below yours states. Though I will admit this draws a lot of attention to this event. I will certainly watch to see how this guy does...

It's not right to fight fire with fire. Usually hackers have a better understanding of network protocols than the casual internet goer too so even as a tactic it's not very effective.

i don't understand how anyone with an apm as low as him can spike to over 550. I'm over 100 every game as protoss.. and i never spike that high. he was at 86 before his crazy 550 spikes which raised his apm.

He's a nobody. iNcontrol or idra will make quick work of him and then we can all laugh

Well, why blizzard can't shut those sites then? It's so easy to find them, you type sc2 maphack in google and it shows you all the sites of the hackers.

1: Not all those sites operate in the United States.
2: It costs a lot of money to file lawsuits against so many sites.
3: Successfully shutting down a site simply ensures a new site will be up in days.

look at this thread... you think he's even gonna show up?


The thing is that he did the qualifiers... why would he even do them if he has no itention to show up? Just wasting other people's time, maybe... This story is something I want to see the ending. It is truly disappointing that Blizzard does not check on their invited players more than that, as map hackers seems to be the flavor of the month.

The alternative is also terrible too, giving corporations the ability to completely censor types of material is really sketchy, prosecuting the individuals responsible is much more effective than just restricting the relevance or availibility.

The apm argument is dull, I am a Diamond player and sometimes my apm goes up to 500 in battles. Not the best of the examples but the rest of the premises are valid.

Oh, let him play. He'll soon realize that his cheating will get him nowhere in MLG.
Now, I can change almost anything.
