Seriously

Not saying it's not suspicious, just that if you look through demos with xrays on you can find "suspicious" for everyone.


Yeah I'm not saying he isn't hacking, just that it's really easy to turn xrays on and see suspicious things if you're looking for them, which a lot of people are doing.

Everyone knows this and no one has disagreed, which is why radar sound and team vision has been brought up alongside it the entire time. IDK if it'll change your mind but maybe watch the demo so you have a frame of reference for what people have been saying instead of focusing on out of context gifs and X-Ray alone

After getting in some MM practice and finally getting my rank (Silver II, I'm surprised it's not Silver I) I joined the last goonpug, was dead last on the scoreboard again, but managed to get nine kills (previous record: three.) I call that a good day.

I'm Silver Elite Master or whatever and I usually dick up goonmans and am lucky to get like five kills, so you're doing great.

Yeah... you really can't. Sometimes, you'll find some 'suspicious' stuff that goes slightly beyond 'this guy sure does get some lucky peeks and rotations', but it's rarely conclusive. That's not what you are really looking for. What you are trying to find is stuff like this. Also, note the similarity to this.

Maybe. Though I've definitely seen behavior like this where it seems like the hacker realizes what he just did was really obvious, so he turns off his hacks for a while to mask it. It's also the fact that you have moments like this on top of otherwise somewhat strange behavior from a guy who is supposed to be MGE but plays and aims like he is barely a nova. I will say, though, that if I only had access to the first 10 rounds of the gameplay that gif is from I would probably vote 'not sufficient evidence'.

I've watched a total of 4 demos and live-spec'd a goonpug when he was playing. If I had to, it'd be easy enough for me to build up a conclusive case showing that he's hacking given all the recorded evidence.

I watched about half of each demo. I saw a few things which I might call suspicious(like happening to push at the right times, or turning around and watching a flank at the right time), but nothing I'd call conclusive.

Yeah people can and do cheat without being 247 blatant. Did you look at how many calls he gave (not warnings or suggestions, calls with certainty) for his team when he shouldn't have had any info? Like people walking up for his teammates when no one had vision? Or enemy positions in sites without having set foot in them once? Or checking useless spots when it's clear and unnecessary (this also includes repeatedly looking back at walls when he's alone)..

The guy makes calls for people based on radar positions too - like calling radio from ramp when the enemy is actually sitting above it on roof. Or banana car when looking at a player sitting behind it in site. There's one round where he pauses 9 seconds in before rotating and calling a B rush for his teammates when he hadn't even gotten to mid at that point. Another round he calls "last guy B" on a guy that stood at car the entire round, not moving.

How many rounds does he stop a push until an enemy walks away? How many times does he stop to avoid a (sometimes obvious, sometimes not) setup before backing off for a safer route/flank? Look at how often he gives a call out and baits his teammate into confirming the info. Check out some of his "snap" shots in first or 3rd person with the laser and see how his aim resets to where he was aiming before the kill shot happened. There's a whole lot of coincidence for a player who looks like he plays with his feet half the time.

I might string together some clips later (ugh effort) but here's an example for now. He walks out of boiler with RadioPassive moving from site to arches and says that he hears someone when Radio's footsteps were inaudible until after the call was made. voice_enable 0 or 1 you can't hear any steps. He also calls out the ct defense spots and baits his teammate into confirming them (this happens often). It's not a gif ban in any way lol

It's obviously because his gamesense is just that good and he's definitely not cheating nope nope nope.


But to answer your question seriously, the MM ranks have nothing to do with your aim, it's just about how often your team wins and loses. So in theory you could regularly go 0-30 but if you miraculously had a team that carried you every single match for your entire csgo playing career then you could end up global elite. But in reality if you were really that bad you would drag your team down to lose enough until you ended up with the correct MM rank.

I'm usually mid fragger in my games, or near the top if you warm up - warm up being deathmatch which is a good habbit. Matchmaking is weird, which you probably know, because you explained it - skill doesn't constitute your rank. Anything above double eagle that isn't on a team is usually a genuine hacker. I never solo queue, and never pick DUST II because that's where the best players of your rank sit, cause everyone grinds dust II all day its more muscle memory then tactics. Good game sense can come from outside sources, like logic and everything else. I once asked that ham goer guy what the plan was, to be barked - there is no plan, just use common sense. He was right. Having confidence and common sense is an easy way to deliver. So my call outs and over zealous confidence on where people are going to be, because they usually go the same spot relative because they've done it a hundred times before and I've spectated many of the player waiting for my turn, then yeah Im guilty there.

It was 5 global elites against my single AK team on Office that pushed me over the edge. I turned off the lights and silently cried to myself.

I have no idea why you'd need to spot his target. I don't use wallhacks. I don't know how they work. I do know that many wallhackers/aimbots often do that exact motion. And hey, maybe you only started hacking recently or you just don't do it often enough to get reported who knows. Maybe you aren't hacking. All I know is someone posted three demos of rounds full of extremely suspicious behavior from an MGE player that, most of the time, portrays a player that's still in the Silvers.

Well yeah kiinda it depends,

It'll be suspicious if you're regulars are calling hacks because I managed to pick them/kill them occasionally while having a good attitude and game sense (again obviously because of the super good WALLS I have). It's obviously their word against mine, and I hold no light to their candle obviously, I have this cute avatar to say that.

There are times when I played that seasonal map, where I had no idea what the gently caress I was doing (might've been mill or whatever the one with the snow in it, and the crazy B site). The only maps I've done pretty well are the ones everyone and their mums have played. You pick up a lot of things when you're against the same people over and over in a 20-30 round experience.

Donno, Im only really doing all of this blantant knee pleading because I really enjoyed the company of some of the individuals. There were chill players and a really good atmosphere when the teams were even and not-so competitive. I remember when I was captain once and picked cole first, because I knew he was a good team player, but apparently pulling him away from his regulars and team mates, made him into a silent pusher who always got killed - and that sucked.
