Just to hone in on some key points of what you wrote -- "Every reliable source contradicts that assertion" -- The only msg from Blizzard was a tweet stating his account recently hacked. -- There is no date on that, for all I know, recent goes by the hack of 4 years ago. If I stated Tod in Recent years went from Progamer in sc2, to commentator it wouldn't be wrong, and from a company like Blizzard that has used "Soon" as a statement for 2-3 years +, I don't think relying on that meaning what ever you want it to mean is accurate either.

It was stated by Blizzard that he wasn't hacking in the WCS qualifier in which he qualified, but the account had a recent hacking violation -- I think there's a lot of things that could've been done a lot better, like not letting him in the qualifier in the first place if this was the case anyway.
But the thing is, without specifics from Blizzard, I could be wrong, or anyone could be wrong with their view on this.
If it really was back in 2015 that he hacked in 2v2, and that was it (back when he was what, 16?) -- Would you really feel it'd still be wrong, and should be perma banned period? Because if so, that's another case for disagreement rather than just believing he's lying.

Maybe I'm just a more forgiving person in that regard, but honestly I feel a lot of people are judging more based off character, which I agree, the stream sniping and bming/flaming isn't cool at all, and for the record, everything I've seen makes me dislike him as a person, and I really think he needs to grow up. BUT we aren't talking about banning him based off those reasons, purely based on the hacking which again, if it was recent, and by that I mean has continually hacked/cheated past 2015 and onwards, then I totally agree with a ban. BUT how can I know, and without Blizzard releasing specifics, the only thing I can say is, if he hasn't done it since 2015, then yeah, I think the whole thing was handled very poorly.

My only issue with the ban is that he was allowed to participate. If the rule is that you have to be in good standing by WCS standards and a flagged account for hacking - no matter how long it has been - is ruled out, that is harsh but fine by me. Giving him the chance to play and ban him after seems unreasonable.

Personally I feel the 'flagged once - banned forever' is fine but I don't want people to have 2nd chances in a competetive world where they cheated.

ya except for him and his friends still terrorize 2v2 to this day.

they've come into my twitch and trolled me (i'm not even an important person). it was like 4-5 of them at once, very annoying.

he's basicly one of those people you never want to encounter, just has a negative vibe, thinks it's funny to ruin peoples day... just a terrible person, he should not be given any second chances.. he's just a stain on the community.

and i didn't watch the video but he cries at the end?? WHAT A BABY, he got what he deserved...... maybe should've just played legit the whole time instead of being a selfish pompous douche? GOOD RIDDANCE.

I think the punishment should fit the crime. PureLegacy's prior actions have no doubt hurt the community, but if in fact he is a legit 1v1 player, removing him from the competitive community actually hurts the scene. I think a more reasonable action on Blizzard's behalf would be to place a monetary fine on players that have behaved badly but are otherwise legit players (not saying PureLegacy is), who have truly repented and want to do right by the community and remain part of it.
