13 PRO Gamers Who Were Caught Cheating

cheating in an online game is bad but when you're a professional it looks really bad hi folks it's falcon and today on gamrex 13 pro players humiliated for cheating at number 13 more than a dozen professional gamers were caught using a radar hack in a pubg tournament where the winner won 2 million dollars cannot imagine the motive could i have 2 million dollars please anybody out there with just a large amount of money they want to give to me for no reason i probably wouldn't cheat my way to it i'll say all of the players which got banned every one of them established a precedent in which anyone who plays pub g and has a record of cheating will not be allowed into these competitions which is pretty wild so don't cheat if you ever want to be a two million dollar pub g winner not that you'll become that at number 12 a top valorent player by the name of fox got permanently banned back in july because uh well let's just say they needed a break fox posted onto twitter uh you know sort of apology excuse thing which didn't mention that he was cheating only mentioned that he was taking a mental health break and one of the anti-cheat developers at valorant responded to it saying if you come back please don't cheat next time which whoops that's what happens when you're one of the top players in the game you get banned for cheating then you try to play it off in public people know that you were banned for cheating internally and you have a profile that they'll notice that you're claiming it's for other reasons don't do that at number 11 a top cs go player got picked up cheating by valve's official anti-cheat software which is by the way pretty darn good at catching cheaters as far as software goes so what happened was a semi-pro german player named simon beck got banned from a specific esports association the reason he got banned was because they use a specific set of tools to detect cheating that valve doesn't in fact this guy had actually gotten past the valve anti-cheat detection system so valve actually talked to the esports entertainment association got their data and integrated it into the valve anti-cheat and then oops cs go players started dropping like flies the highest profile guy to get nabbed was hovik tavmasian if i'm not saying that correct i apologize but once he got caught and banned he decided to say hey actually tons of pros use hacks that's why they look so good he published a list of players that he said use hacks and then claimed that 40 of professional people playing games today use hacks i don't know but wouldn't that mean a lot more people probably would have gotten banned i mean a lot of people did get banned when that cheat upgrade happened but not 40 of the pros playing the game today at number 10 an apex legends professional by the name of elm zero was uh streaming with cheats why why would anyone do that like people can see what you're doing when you're streaming you're cheating now here's the deal he was in the process of trying out for zenith esports who was notified that he was streaming with cheats on and they said actually you know what you're not trying out anymore because you stream cheats like why would you do that what on earth would you stream cheats for unless like you didn't care about being caught but if you're in the process of trying out for a big name like what why would you do this at number nine a winner of a massive fortnite champion series got suspended from the game and had his prize money taken away because he was caught teaming which is essentially playing the game cooperatively in competitive play which is not something you're allowed to do especially in you know a champion series he didn't get permanently banned from it's just a 14-day suspension which is maybe a little light but combined with the fact he lost 15 000 dollars i mean yeah see the thing is it would be kind of hard to tell that somebody was playing along with another person if the other player was not just looting health packs and stuff and leaving them in places for sakosama the player in question to just pick up and use i mean it's kind of obvious it's not get caught by anti-cheat software obvious but anyone watching would be like why is that guy just leaving health in the middle of the field and more than a few people watch these things might i add and number eight a team of cs go players got disqualified when one of their players got caught cheating and as he was being reprimanded for it attempted to delete the cheat so that he could prove that he didn't have the cheat i i don't really know what his thinking was here on account it was very obvious that he was doing something involving his computer and also attempted to push the person away who is attempting to handle the situation i mean there's gotta be ways to look less guilty than this man it not only disqualified his entire team from the tournament the team just completely dissolved they were like actually you know what f it i don't want the association anymore they just all left it's interesting he had actually been banned previously for six months because he had a valve anti-cheat van and counter-strike back in 2017. at number seven a high-level overwatch player was streaming well overwatch and for whatever reason was using an aimbot why do people do that while streaming i don't get it i don't like that people do it anyways but while streaming is quite bold this particular streamer kid x just didn't even care at all to cover up the fact they were using an aimbot which like i said very very bold i don't know why you would do that what's the point if you're like a nobody sure fine stream away i get why you might be using an aimbot it's not really a risk to you but if you're like well known or considered good or have a reputation based on the game or career why what would you do this for anyway he got banned while he was streaming which yeah that's what happens if you get detected cheating at number six two very large starcraft 2 players got charged with match fixing now match fixing isn't just like running a cheat or something it's actually an illegal like gambling thing like you know how prize fighters would get in trouble for taking money to throw a fight that's what this is a player by the name of lee sing hyun took 55 000 to throw a match and another player by the name of jung woo yong took 25 000. that's probably the most lucrative loss i've ever heard of in video games apparently the way this was handled is some brokers posed as fans and eventually got close enough to the gamers themselves that they were going to arrange financial backers this is all actually like illegal as opposed to just annoying cheating and they all got in legal trouble for it at number 5 the chinese taipei hearthstone players ended up getting in trouble not for using some sort of tools or software cheat but rather in a match in which they were against singapore they defeated them however the way they did it was by watching the stream of them playing against them now keep in mind streams are delayed by sometimes maybe up to 30 seconds so it's not the most useful thing you can do however you can get a look at what your opponent has and this aided them in making a decision according to blizzard and the hearthstone global games the way they got caught was particularly not clever though because they uploaded a video of their match that included audio of the players talking to each other and they actually mentioned to each other what they were doing don't upload a video of yourself cheating if you got away with it dummies i mean don't cheat is the easiest way but like you have to be particularly arrogant to think ah this is fine number four the league of legends team called abzu frost got fined thirty thousand dollars that's not like a ban or not being able to play in a tournament or something like that that's thirty thousand dollars that's a lot of people's yearly income they got find that for turning around during the match and peeking at their opponent's mini-map like let me go ahead and say that's a dick move it's not the worst instance of cheating i think that is possible i mean let's not lie in the years of goldeneye split screen i would constantly look at the other screens but then again i also wasn't competing on the world stage either was definitely a basement but point being like you can't do that in a big competitive thing and thirty thousand dollars sounds pretty harsh but it was actually twenty percent of their tournament winnings so i mean they still walked away with 120 000 dollars but don't cheat why at number three daniel apt a formula e driver like a real race car driver was participating in an online event called race at home challenge now these types of events have been springing up quite a bit on account well you know the stuff going on abd supposedly placed third but it was found that he actually didn't he instead hired a pro gamer to do it for him now he wasn't publicly proven to have not taken part in the race however his zoom camera was not on publicly that gave a bit of a clue to people but it's been theorized that the ip addresses were cross-referenced and he was proven to have done this he was fined disqualified and his team dropped him embarrassing at number two a cs go player by the name of flex got banned in the middle of an esports entertainment association league match when right in the middle of it flex got banned for cheating the announcers that were commentating the match just were basically bewildered they noted that they thought it was weird that he was just sort of tearing up a bunch of really experienced players and then said oh well that's it i guess we know now later he said that he used cheats to get himself banned to get himself to stop playing the game because he was getting obsessed with it i don't know if i believe that though and finally at number one a cheat developer actually snitched on a fortnight professional now there's a lot of money on the line for the fortnite world cup we've talked about this in multiple videos the cheat maker turned in this guy by the name of jonathan cosmalla because he wanted to use the cheat in tournaments and win money obviously somebody who makes cheats for a video game is fine with people using cheats that's what they make money off of but he said it's more for having fun rather than to win money and he just draws the line morally speaking i'm sure cosmola heard this and was like oh dang it because when the cheat dev turns you in for cheating in a tournament wow but what do you think leave us a comment let us know your opinion on all this cheating crap if you like this video click like if you're not subscribed
