I just want to point out the replays mentioned by chobo earlier. he plays nestea, colganzi, ogsforgg, lzgamer etc. and these would be worth an analysis. these were his recent NA ladder games

http://drop.sc/replays?utf8=%E2%9C%9...=Apply+filters

also worth mentioning is his uploading of replays. after his masters cup win i told him to upload all his reps and he did so instantly without hesitation. IF he is a hacker, he is certainly very confident of the way he conceals it to upload his games so freely.

as strafe and others come forward with more replays, feel free to compile all the replays in one post to make it easy for people to download and analyze.

SanG:

he hasn't uploaded all of his replays yet, and if he refused to upload them, that'd just look too blatant. That did make me feel that he's weeding out suspicious replays.. idk, maybe he forgot them?

yeah but wouldn't it be awkward if he didn't upload his replays? LOL

and also he only uploaded 2 games vs enderr, didnt he 2-1 enderr? one game is missing

Serious accusations! Hopefully the truth can be found. Since it was my event he won, i'd definitely love to hear more about these concerns, as well as more input from CHoBo.

It's worth noting that while this is his first big tournament win, he has participated in many! Masters Cups, SEASL, etc. Always plays decent, but not quite placing. Perhaps Sunday it just all went right for him?

Also he has been both GM on SEA + NA for quite some time. Unsure of KR ranking? Unless hacked every game from day 1, clearly is a smart and skilled player.

He has coached quite a few people, and preaches an unorthodox style. Grand Master Manual coach here.

Has been labelled a very cheesy, all-in and unorthodox player by many. This may work well in ladder games, but tournaments are a different situation, which may explain the lack of success to date.

I was only able to watch the Masters Cup finals live - missed the other games in the tournament due to admin duties.

That G1 4 rax push on Shakuras wasn't really suspicious to me. If he was paying attention to the minimap me might have spotted the overlord near his rax's, as it did show up. Further more, as he pushes out, no lings on towers? Then pokes up ramp and already 2 spines + queens minimun, all indicate that he'd been scouted, and Mafia was fairly prepared for it, likely producing/holding back some lings. Like he said, might have won, might have lost, that all seems pretty reasonable to me. Furthermore he made some nice decisions later into the game, building up the vikings, only revealing some, going for bc/ghost, but largely i think it came down to that lucky nuke, which Mafia admitted he missed. No nuke, Mafia might/probably would have won.

G2 was just a well executed proxy, and smart position. G3 i think he just outplayed Mafia, won the main engagement, killed off mutas, was able to keep on pushing the advantage from there, with the benefit of nice tank positioning and drops. Mafia likely quite tired i'd imagine at this time.


- Would love to hear more about other replays. More from CHoBo, and see him attend and perform at live events, which is the best way to prove ones ability to the community.

From what i've seen, and his records to date, i don't think there is sufficient evidence of hacking. We all must be sure, as it's a pretty big thing to accuse someone of. Would be very sad if he does actually hack.

I'm not that great at analysis, so i'll leave it to those better at the task, and have a stronger understanding of the game.
