Dota 2 Pro Player Accused of Cheating in $15,000 Tournament
The world of professional Dota 2 is rocked by allegations of cheating in the Dom.ru Championship 2019. A Reddit post claims CIS player Broxy, previously banned for cheating in the Tinkoff Dota Cup, used cheats to secure a first-place win and a share of the $7,786 prize pool.
Evidence of Cheating?
The Reddit user, Bomber_MoreMMR, points to several instances where Broxy’s in-game actions suggest map hacking, providing an unfair advantage by revealing enemy positions even through the fog of war. One video highlights a situation where Broxy seemingly anticipates the movements of hidden enemies.
Specific examples cited include questionable decisions contradicting common game logic, and instances where Broxy seemingly knew the location of hidden heroes like Nyx and Sand King.
The Suspect Remains Silent
While the Reddit thread presents compelling evidence, it remains unconfirmed. Broxy has yet to respond to the allegations. The Dota 2 community awaits his statement and further investigation into this high-stakes cheating scandal.
Types of Dota 2 Cheats
Common Dota 2 cheats include scripts, auto-casts, auto-combos, and map hacking. While cheating in casual games is frustrating, its presence in professional tournaments with significant prize money raises serious concerns about fairness and competitive integrity.
