I watched the replay from his POV and he never specifically glanced AT my army in the fog of war... But he pulls off a proxy thor rush (badly) on TDA with no scouting whatsoever (sends his scv at 2:30 or 2:40 down to make the fac), then later when i counter, he pulls back his marines and cancels his bunker/expo at his nat without seeing anything (10:45).

I played this guy the other day and after you posted this I decided to go watch the rep. It was on shakuras, there were some things that COULD have been seen as map hacking (He scouted my base first and ebay blocked my 15 hatch, made super fast tanks with siege when I made a few roaches to push hellions back, queued up a medivac to drop my 4th when he had NO idea it was there) but none of it was really 'definitive'. If I play him again I'll have another look at the game.

just saying a proxy thor rush is cheese and doesn't matter what you scout also engy block is annoying but effective but takes away from there build. The drop on the fourth doesn't mean anything either as you start to remember that for every base you take zerg should take another so that could be a read like that i do that myself for 4ths.

2:30 : Blindly send a SCV to make a proxy factory near opponent base without knowing where it is (TalDarim Altar, real 4 player map)
3:00 : Glancing in fog of war in opponent base. It's begining very badly ....
10:50 : Backing his marines and canceling his expo right at the time opponent army arrives at his natural but still out of vision. Another evidence of Map Hack.
Conclusion
At 99% it's a Map Hack because each of those could be luck or coincidence but the 3 of them in such a short game makes this really unlikely.
