The unreal and magical things I see most games in a general QM are impossible. Almost all my losses are us getting stomped like we aren’t even trying. We stomp them too, maybe once a month. They stomp us the bad way every loss. Took me TEN GAMES to get one win today.
So let me get it out of the way, I don’t suck. I’m at least average. I expect an average amount of wins. HALF should be without much effort. 3/24 ISN’T half.
We had a li-ming we played against twice. She went 20-0 first game, 17-1 second game. Never before seen. Impossible. Comes out of the shadows like it’s her passive. Every click is the PERFECT move even vs all 5 of us. A TWO FOOT teleport is her only escape and she destroys us all.
She was in a team with two others, a tracer and a varian. They all focused fired us which you do. Except when WE do it there is a tiny variance when we click. You can tell we are all reacting. THEY reacted AT THE SAME MILLISECOND and unloaded all spells at once. Boom. Every time each of us last less than a second. Like they are all being controlled by ONE person. Not fishy at all.
So I don’t want to hear that I suck. My abilities don’t matter against scripters. I don’t want to hear I can’t handle losing. If it felt like we had a chance I never complain. What I want to hear is what blizzard is going to do about the MASSIVE scripter problem in this game. If you can’t be helpful, don’t bother.
This game needs an INVASIVE punk buste- type program that if you don’t want to use it, you don’t play or if you go 20-0 in a game you can’t play qm anymore. You HAVE to play on your own skill level. PENALIZE those that just grief and want to stomp someone’s guts in. I hate winning that way and I hate losing that way. Gain zero exp if you win too hard. Or a queue for those of us who want to play a FAIR game. Any of these things will let me do what I want and let the dickless script-turds play on a higher level. DO SOMETHING BLIZZARD.
I haven’t considered that,i thought it was just bad matchmaking but in any case…
My games are either stomp or get stomped,there is middle ground! It’s one extreme or the other. It’s not fun to play like this.
This is akin to multiboxing, according to Blizzard policy it’s perfectly legal as long as you physically push the buttons.
Problem with this is that the third party software used for this is legal as well according to Blizzard.
Here’s how it works.
2-3 or more computers are logged into one controlling computer where a player controls all computer characters at once using the same algorithm.
You can use TeamViewer for this and it’s considered legal. It takes a chunk of miliseconds to work with it so a VERY good internet connection is required.
Another way is to plug the mouse and keyboard to all computers at once via a modified USB hub, which again, is legal since you physically push the buttons.
Now, if we are talking about scripting for ability and behaviors, THAT is illegal.
It’s called AimBot in general and works in a way that when you hover over a target the abilities trigger automatically. It’s proven to be working in MOBAs as well as it’s working in FPS games, a lot of people use it in Overwatch and CS:GO which is why I generally avoid such games, I play Overwatch when I want to snipe a bot.
The scripts you are talking about are illegal and Blizzard is as far as I know actively hunting those down. If you have replays from those games send them to hacksATblizzardDOTcom and describe the problem. DO NOT use vulgar language, do not accuse them of anything, simply say that you suspect foul play with the use of bots or auto scripts from certain players and they will look into it.
If you write even a little thing mean towards blizzard in the email they will not even look into the matter. Usually when I suspect foul play I simply send a replay with title Suspected Foul Play and in the email itself :
name of hero/player
Best regards.
and hit send, nothing else.
They actually look into those things but you will never hear anything about it and it might take a while before any action is taken, from what I know a real physical person or group of people is looking into those things daily so it takes a while.
Hum, I have played around 9000 games of hots and I have never encountered a scripter, or if I have, I have not recognized them. I don’t think that is very common, timing cds and going 20-0 is very common. Well going 20-0 is not that common, but still happens many times per day if you play carefully and in qm setting, not that common in tl though. I think 20-0 is more common than 20-5 for example if you play properly. Not saying you could not encounter a scripter, but I am certain that they are very uncommon if it is even possible to run ones, also it would certainly be hindering the team using that kind of strategy instead of helping as you would either have to pre-script them to do something or to control every character at same time which would lead to bad positioning and bad usage of skills.
It’s also likely that instead of using cheats, the Li Ming was actually coordinating with team mates via voice chat. Sometimes you might get amazing synergy with people you’ve never met before, maybe because they understand your way of playing or your characters work amazingly together.
Some people know how to read character animations, player movement and sound effects really well, so they can punish poor players better. They observe the little details.
They know when to go for the kill and when to bail out. That’s the simple way of getting lots of kills with little deaths: Don’t take too high risks.
3/24 sounds like a horrible ratio but looking into your own gameplay could help. If you notice that you go against the enemy at odd times (read: team isn’t with you) and you dive 1vs5, you’re going to have a bad time. No one should ever have 3/24 win rate if they have any common sense.
Or then, you know, could be scripters. Who knows. Dealing with possible cheaters is important too.
Synergy is fun, if you want to talk with strangers, I’m an introvert^6 so I don’t like even picking up my phone when someone calls.
Allied/Party chat is all I can allow myself.
Unfortunately a lot of people are playing for lulz or just try to do quests and that’s that.
I suspected several people of using scripts in game, sometimes the automatic response like a robot timed are hard to believe.
I remember I sniped garrosh once with LiMing, tossed the orb behind the brush and killed him purely by chance, I thought I saw someone going behind them, never seen who, funny he was near death and got poofed.
I’m all for permabanning IP Ranges of cheaters.
My matches are often either get roflstomped or roflstomp them, sometimes I get 15 loss streak and then a 10 win streak. Matchmaking simply sucks. I have had some very lucky plays where the enemy actually whispered me afterwards asking me how I knew they were there. My answer was: “I was aiming for someone else, missed, and hit you”.
And sometimes I meet someone who I have amazing synergy with, completely random people. They just seem to be really good at reading my intentions, like the match I had just now where I was Dehaka and every time I ran into the enemies to pull someone, Garrosh would stand right behind me to toss the enemy further into our turrets, and malfurion would root them. We were three randoms, but timed things perfectly.
I think I met a bot 2 weeks ago, but have too many replays to go looking for it. The enemy was skillshot based, but never missed ONCE. I thought we just got a grandmaster opponent by chance again, but thinking back it was most likely someone using an illegal program.

I did nothing wrong. I played how I always play. I went 12 wins a row yesterday. So what changed?
Stomp or get stomped…
Just a Sith deals in absolutes…
Well today I stomped a lot of players with Orphea
I feel bad about it, it was ranked and I kind of expected to be matched with people.
Felt like they were throwing the game, OUR team reported them for throwing the game, how bad can it get ?
I think the latest news just got peoples morale to an absolute low.
I had a match today with HGC players, it felt like it was dead already, there is no spirit anymore, one team stomps another team gets stomped.
Well done @Blizzard. Well done.
