Always have been a big fan of O’gaming. Have been watching their stream since the early days.

This Worlds has been so full of upsets that maybe the 'Eyes On' curse will finally be defeated? ...

...

Rip G2.

But seriously, I loved this episode -- send a msg to or call your mom!!! I also loved the bit at the end where G2 took a second to recognize how important the win was -- "We beat the #1 Chinese team so we can beat the #2 Chinese team." Amazing to be able to contextualize it as you're ending the game.

How about software that could aid users in dodging long to mid-range skillshots by reading the screen output and responding by taking over inputs? Would be annoying.

We're always trying to get the first jump on a new attack vector, including things like this. To be truly successful in Anti-Cheat, you need to be proactive rather than reactive.

Damn. That's actually a while.

This isn't true anymore. The scripting community at large's general expectation is sometime within a week of use, and Korea's bans to occur within an hour of use.

We have a strong, deeply held hatred for Geology amongst the team. Rocks think they're so cool ... just sitting there ... well they're NOT!

To any rioter in the anti cheat team. What kind of educational background should you have and what kind of skill are you expected to need to be a good team member? Is it focused heavily in math? in data analytics? in computer science? I am a computer engineer myself so i am curious what the requirements are.

Hey there!

It's a somewhat cliche answer, but I'd say there's no real specific skill set, as there are a bunch of different types of roles. With educational background, we have those who were almost exclusively self-taught with no college education, to PhD candidates. Each role within the team requires a different skillset, and we seek to have a diversity in knowledge so that we can have a multi-faceted approach. Majority of the team does have some sort of computer science background, but the specialties widely vary - we're far from all sysinternals guys.

I actually come from a completely different work space than video game cheating - I come from the world of online poker security. However, the team took a chance on my threat assessment and problem solving abilities to have carryover into the Anti-Cheat space, and I think this highlights how pragmatic we're willing to be in looking for what the "right fit" is.

Ofc without obvs/ez to detect scripts.

@AntiCheatTeam

I'm curious, have you ever witnessed a lol cheat that relied on CV?

In regards to a cheat that relies on CV - yes, we've seen it recently, but the effectiveness is pretty limited.

Regardless of effectiveness though, we'll still ban if it's actively seeking to give an unfair advantage.

I believe Riot has said in the past they currently aren’t banning the skin programs, but they were warning people that might change if they decide the skin program is stepping too far into the code.

If all it does is change skins you should be okay.

Yeah, pretty much this. They aren't currently being banned but anytime you're tampering with the game's code, you're stepping into murky waters.

We'll open it up to more regions in time. We want to take it slow and steady this time. There'll be more Clash news in the upcoming weeks.

Wait, SKT and TSM didn't reach Worlds this year??

Kidding aside, this was not intended behavior so we'll be fixing this in the next patch.

Jokes aside, it has been a fun one to write, and I hope we've been spot on for everything we described.

Unfortunately we promised that Championship Ashe's border + icon would only be available during Worlds 2017.
