Well he'll be fighting Nerchio soon in the current Go4sc2 cup. If he beats him 2-0, we can also ask for some replays from desrow if he gets that far.

People are saying he uses auto hotkeys when he plays as well (not really sure if that's true at all), but easily accessible stuff.

Rooting for desRow to punish him, I don't believe some rando is going to put him down legitimately.

Had a short chat about the whole situation. Will try and find a video link at a later date if it gets published. Hope it will help a bit.

Played imbatoss last go4sc2 wednesday, we had a few obs in the game, not sure, was he hacking or not, but i was surprised by he's bad micro and decision making, eventually he lost, double proxy gates at 3rd on neo planet s. He didn't blind countered it and didn't scouted at all, but micro and decision making, wasn't looks like he is at the very top of GM, typical high masters are better at those things.

Blizzard needs to either open up more data or develop a punkbuster-esque software for these things to stop happening.



Punk Buster would be great. Infact all online games should use something like this. It doesn't have to be punk buster but something cooler, and maybe includes pandas . For a company that has so much control over their game, blizzard really lacks simple things with SC II, and once again this is another thing that could be prevented, but it isn't....

I do man. Sucks to be you.

May this guy be struck down by lightning.

Makes me sad to see people like you getting cheated out of the practice they put in the game.

I feel for you strelok. Sometimes retribution does not come fast. Sometimes you have to wait for justice. People DO care about this bullshit Imbatoss is throwing at the community. It will be all the better when we finally see his ass kicked from ESL and ip banned on the server. Just be patient. Blizzard and ESL might be slow and cautious but that is just how this works.

He's banned at every mystarcraft tournament (all the ones that Mori does host). I hope ESL will step in soon. Its blatantly obvious..

Edit: If you guys want him to be banned on Teamliquid, you need to put up the evidence against him (replays+timestamps+explanation) alltogether and a big post. An admin will ban him based on that, but I got no time to search through everything.

ESL should step up and BAN him already and stop with the excuses that replays will be "checked" by special admin team...
Man up and ban that hacker already.

Pro-Players should use their voice to complain directly to Blizzard (and tournament organisers as 2nd priority). Posting on TL and Twitter has - for very obvious reasons - no consequences. Why don't you use your voice on the official Blizzard forums?

'Naming and shaming' is bannable on Battle.net forums. The thread will be removed & forum write rights potentially removed.
--> Thus third party sites like TL or reddit have to be used, if these kind of cases are brought to public knowledge.

No, it is completely poinless from Blizzard's pov. This is just a fansite (though a big one). This and all the twitter complaints serve zero purpose, but to vent.

No. Battle.net forums indeed have those rules.

And bringing these kind of cases to public knowledge is a good thing (if there is a good enough case). At least people know and allows people to build cases. Maybe even pressures Blizzard to act in some cases. If all these kind of things would be done behind the scenes via Blizzard's hack forms, nobody would know. And still potentially nothing would happen.

Probably just Targa's personal grudge with Alastor. He likes to call Alastor a hacker.

I guess you missed, that this case is public like a month or more. Nothing happens if you don't use the official channels, be it Blizzard or Tournaments or TL.

And most likely some have used 'official channels'. Bringing the case into public knowledge does not mean that other means can not be used parallel.

Also please note that the entire time I have only referenced your suggestion to report people on Battle.net forums that is not allowed.
