Oh boy, a 30 minute video about a competitive scene for a game I've never played? And at 1:30 in the morning? Sign me up

Heartwarming: there is a legitimate reason to hate the person you already disliked.

How Civ6 handles cheaters in multiplayer mode.
Anti cheat: 🙅‍♂
Unstable network code: 👌

"Your honour, my client could not have been the serial killer because no victims died during the week when he lost his lucky knife"

EDIT 24/2/25: Guess this guy could make as many flimsy defences as he wanted since he had a bunch of narcissistic old fossils in the mod team behind his back lmao.

@dar4061 1 year ago

Him going on a month long hiatus because the version used broke civ replay is one of the funniest things in cheating ive heard, cant get more ''final nail in the coffin'' than that.

@NotFlappy12 1 year ago

The edited screenshots in the appeal completely seal the deal. This removes even the tiniest bit of doubt that he was somehow just lucky in every single game.

Scouting tutorial AND comprehensive documentary on a prolific cheater? Take my comment for the algorithm bro😭

@brichess8227 1 year ago

The fact that a personal friend of Andrew on the mod team used this video to push to successfully ban you from the CPL is wild and shows how wildly corrupt the league is

@atangerinecat 1 year ago

Ok what's really convincing is moving the settler before moving the scout. Not even an intermediate player would make this mistake, as everyone has had the unfortunate mistake of moving a settler into fog of war only to be captured by a barbarian immediately.

@DragonNyah 1 year ago

Bro didn't just cheat, he insulted the intelligence of the entire mod team by using CROPPED SCREENSHOTS to try to prove his innocence 💀

@Delboy_1999 1 year ago

The way he made a 150+ page document trying to gaslight people into thinking he wasn’t cheating is almost sociopathic. Thank god this guy got caught

@OreoShiChi 1 year ago

This guy should be a prosecutor. In 30 minutes, I went from never hearing of the game to thinking Andrew sold his soul.

@vaidast739 1 year ago

Not playing civ for a month when cheating method is not working is mad. It means he doesn't even like the game. It's just for internet points.

Lol guys ... Since I am getting harassed now every second day under my videos: YES my name is Andrew, YES I play Civ6, NO I am not this guy and I don't play Multi.
ps: your video is amazing! I learned how to scout better lol :D

Damn, i need to play more MP

I can't believe this guy tried to doctor screenshots

33:09 - "Oh no, the person who used an aimbot to reliably achieve 100% headshot accuracy onto 5 enemies within a fraction of a second while spin jumping out of a vent every single turn in competitive Counterstrike has been banned. Now I'm really worried I'll get banned when I get a headshot, which is basically the same thing."

@hallucinogender 1 year ago

Possibly the single most damning thing that a cheater can do is to produce doctored screenshots as evidence to prove their innocence, when the investigators have access to the un-edited images.

@ThatCasulGuy 1 year ago

The hiatus while cheats don't work due to patch conflicts is one of the biggest red flags in almost any game. I remember even as far back as playing Unreal Tournament 2k4 there were these high profile players in my region community who would be disappear when new patches roll out that made aimbots unsafe to use.
