Was Spades, and the "hard game mechanics evidence" was all 100% bullshit, was either from a misunderstanding of replay mechanics and/or of game mechanics. Which wasn't too important because there was gameplay evidence, which really is the only admissible evidence outside of someone using automation hacks, which can be detected in the replay file (assuming they use standard methods of automation). And this here too is gameplay evidence, not "mechanics evidence", which is you look at games through a large sample set is quite useful. | ||

Because if you come out guns blazing on this subject and you're wrong, there's going to be hell to pay. Remember TheMista? Saw IdrA play this guy on his stream and he was giving him decent games. Thought it was interesting considering he was someone I never had heard of. No suspicion of hacking, if I can recall at the time, but from what a few people are saying, evidence sounds fairly damning. | ||

I support Catz and watched the video from beginning to end. When even fellow Terran players like PainUser take a look and totally agree, I mean... This is more likely than not, the wrong time to get into this type of discussion. When I see Catz highlight many fishy trends in the video such as "why would he scan...and then NOT look at where he scanned" "why would his camera be spending all that time staring at his buildings" "why would he completely unsiege ALL his tanks from the center, and move EVERY unit to intercept that drop" People rushed in saying, "oh Spades isn't even good, he just does random stuff" which is the most difficult to believe thing I have ever heard. Talking about a guy who is GM level from "doing random stuff" ? Tell that to all the people who can't break into masters. I am of the opinion that getting to GM is not some random trivial feat that literally anyone can do. The very best players in the entire geographic region - 0.2%...can just...somehow get into GM..."doing random stuff" - maybe I'm the one who's delusional, right? You're probably gonna say "the replay files are subject to corruption", "you can't rely on replays for evidence when the camera could be bugged" and possibly even many hundreds of other reasons. I still believe in CatZ, that's all I have to close off with. | ||

You're probably gonna say "the replay files are subject to corruption", "you can't rely on replays for evidence when the camera could be bugged" and possibly even many hundreds of other reasons. I still believe in CatZ, that's all I have to close off with. First there is something you need to understand. Namely, camera lock as we have seen it so far is not triggered automatically. And why would it be? That would be the easiest thing to detect ever - a similar method was used in BW to detect hackers, namely through the absence of something that you'd normally expect to see at least a few times. So to your first point, why would Spades scan, and then active camera lock to look at his scan target? See that makes no sense at all from the viewpoint of it being a clue in the replay itself, outside of all game context. So it would seem unlikely to be a camera lock, but rather that he either did not bother to look at it period (which is gameplay evidence and very useful), or he looked at it for not too long then went to something else, and in a replay file what happens is that such actions can be not played back. It is for this reason that you can select units without the selection showing up in the unit box in a replay. Your second point about staring at buildings is interesting, as it is suggestive of camera lock, however it is not 100% proof because people do occasionally do that for a variety of reasons. However, as I said before, if the guy is doing that a lot and/or never looking into fog of war, then it is highly suggestive. Your last point about random unit movements is exactly the type of thing I am saying is most useful in fingering a hacker. Gameplay evidence, namely moves that don't make any sense at all unless you have perfect vision or at least the ability to see production tab, are very good. Imo only a retard or longtime hacker would get caught using active features of a hack, rather than passive. So instead we probably have to rely more on how they play, because over a long period of games, you can tell if something is up with the way they play, and that's how you notice them, unless they are using active hacks that leave a fingerprint. And PS I didn't say Catz is wrong. I just said that his evidence of active components of a hack being used were iffy at best , and detracted from the good evidence garnered through analysis of Spades' play. I actually think he was right, about the gameplay evidence that is. | ||

He's a hacker, no big deal, there are hundreds of em on Ladder. The issue here is that he was able to enter & play in a tournament. Who is responsible? In my opinion, MLG screwed up. Also this could be a good opportunity to rant about the credibility of online tournaments, and how you never know who is actually behind the computer, nor what he is actually doing. | ||

Hmmm, there's tons of people in GM, even top GM, who do completely random stuff. The distinction between GM and masters isn't just strategy, a lot of it is mechanics and execution - which is why people with high GM mechanics and execution can faceroll people doing random stuff oftentimes. Blind all-ins, metagaming, lack of scouting, random army movements, all of these things happen all of the time in legitimate high-level play. | ||

Also this could be a good opportunity to rant about the credibility of online tournaments, and how you never know who is actually behind the computer, nor what he is actually doing. Most of the HotS tournaments have been including a wide range of players just based on recommendation. This is great to getting new players exposure in the scene so don't be mad about that. The problem is that no one really had any evidence at that time as far as I know, and just like TT1 said. It's not good to try and screw someone over just based on a hunch, even if its a good one. The show matches/KOTH MLG has been doing is amazing and you shouldn't be mad at anyone. Instead, just encourage highly skilled players to continually check for suspicious action so we can try to ward away things like that from happening. | ||

You can't get mad at them for not knowing. They aren't expected to look at every single player and know for a fact they don't hack. It's impossible to tell unless you are looking for it and the people doing that aren't looking and paying attention to suspicious activity, doesn't even cross their minds especially if the other player is actually "scouting". | ||

That news made my day I hope the other ******** cheaters will get caught one day too. Cheating is still way too easy in Sc2 (disregardless if its WoL or HotS). I would bet money that there are a ton of other "WoL nobodys" who are trying to earn money in HotS due to hacking. A low gm/high master with just a production tab hack can compete with the bests.Its just frustrating to see as a up and coming player myself that many other people choose the EZ way. edit..: There is a other zerg as well who jumped out from nowhere to "one of the best/best zerg" in hots. I dont wanna write a name because i dont have evidence. I just want the people to think twice if there is a "Top Player" who is so bad that his builds and timings are even in the first 6minutes of the game 20 seconds behind real top players, without any pressure at all. Just think twice before u admire someone. Not every cheater is so stupid to cheat a way that other people can really "see" it | ||

So he uses the same build order in PvP as his opponent with slight timing differences, he has to hack! That happens so many times. Even the movement back and forth between the two spots on Daybreak where your opponent can enter your natural area is not so weird. The Oracles changing direction to catch 2x Pylon is highly suspicious of course. But the rest "won't hold up in court" as they say. Him sitting on his ramp when going Stargate is pretty normal I'd say, not just because he "knew" the opponent was coming. Only the 4th game where he builds a Forge + Cannon at his ramp without knowledge whatsoever of the proxy DT Shrine (or anything else) basically confirms map / production tab hack. | ||

There're realy some random and stupid stuff happens in this game, and many players play blindly at early stage of the game. But that DT + forge - thats fucking lol. And on that russian forum the guy that made that video (Revolver) said that he looked throu TrinXY's build orders on all games and he played that "forge-build" only when opponent goes DTs (which I doubt he had scouted cos he plays blindly and even in bronze players dont allow opponent to scout DT shrine). Thats some star sense MVP would have like to have... | ||
