So not only being funded by hack developers isnt enough... But after all if he gets paid and will ignore rest of the team I'm fine.

They have been proven cheaters in both AlphaSC2 and PsY leagues and I'm quite sure they will use their little thing again in this league...

"Bbbbut there are no hacks in SC2 ?!" Well there are not, but if you are clever you can use human being as your personal hack. So how do they do that... if they meet a low rank team, they just dont put stream delay on, while streaming on a goodgame.ru there is no way for majority of teams to even understand what the hell is going on there. But when they meet a decent team who can double check if there is a stream delay here is when magic is happening. Player who is playing will join a teamspeak, skypecall or whatever voip program they are using and he simply listens to the cast. That's like maphack without maphack. Sometimes you can hear little skype call end sound, while there is NO cocaster..."

I already informed all the admins with the evidence and I'll be collecting more... I mean don't get me wrong they are not that stupid like i though they would be (back in hots you could witness a lot of ppl just leaving vs isimba members just because why even waste time to play vs a hacker.)

Hopefully this membership will be short and than more serious team (i called a team there lol..) will pick Armani up, he is talented player and i feel like this is such a waste.

But its good place for guru tho

I see all of these "uhhhhhh" posts and other people saying their reputation is bad.... Any context here? I saw an old reddit post about the manager offering boosting services and being accused of maphacking but not much else. Looks like they take part in Team Leagues without issues, so what am I missing? Good luck to Armani

Reputation is one thing but what worries me is that there are no known sponsors.

Well, I hope everything ends well.

Then why accuse them of anything on here if you have no plans on making the evidence public?

Mods, please delete/nuke my post if this counts as witch hunting, but I think this deserves attention given the circumstances.

https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/5idwxf/can_we_please_not_let_maphackers_participate_in/?st=iwptka21&sh=7f6a2a3c

Especially the linked post of Pengwin makes me really wonder if Armani made a good career choice here.

It's worth noting that TheFlash is the manager of the team, and the other manager MaGiCaL has also been accused of hacking in the past. He advertises the sale of boosting services on his skype and has for months as well.

I think it's incredibly questionable when the management of a team with aspiring WCS players has a hacker for a manager. It makes me wonder whether the players are contractually obliged to help with the boosting that isIMBA offers, in which case they are in violation of the SC2 TOS. I don't know why players would want to associate with this kind of a team.


Guru also has been removed from the NationWars list because of "irregular votes" (aka cheating)

Best of luck to Armani.

Funny how this team is still doing this without being punished, they are still offering boosting in the ingame chat and i would not be surprised if they possesed working private hacks. I don't think Armani want to stay in this team.
