Earlier today, I posted a thread asking for opinion on a report I made, which was rejected for lack of evidence. Now, another report has been rejected for the same reason.
I believe this player was also hacking, and here is my reasons why (please read the entire post before responding):
His hit range was a bit longer than normal, by roughly one block in a few hits. This could be due to lag, but I have very good internet. If you check any of my other videos, you would often be able to see me pressing tab to check the player list, and my internet is almost always the best. During the entire course of this game, I do not remember my internet being any worse than normal. The possibility of lag is also eliminated by the fact that both of us obviously took knockback instantly, meaning we were not lagging. Also, the first hit was the ones where he got the best range on me. That eliminates the possibility of w tapping or lag, as those two could only give a player greater range after the first hit in a combo. (note that the clip may appear laggy because I have my recording software set on the lowest fps, to reduce the effects on my gameplay, also note that he could still be lagging, I am only stating that lag was not the cause of him getting high range on me. Then again, I showed the tab player list at 0:03, and we both had full bars internet). The hits that did not seem legit were his first hit and the two hits at 0:15.
He never missed a hit. A lot of people judge whether or not a player is using killaura by seeing if a player can hit their opponent without their opponent hitting back. This comes from the belief that if a player is using killaura, they will be able to hit you every time you are in their hit range, and you must be in his hit range in order to hit him. However, they forget the fact that hackers can set hotkeys on their keyboard to toggle their hacks. It is apparent that this player did so at around 0:13 of the video, so that it appears he is not hacking, since he didn't hit me for a period of around one second. However, I was clearly in his view and hit range, so if he had been legit, it would have been an easy hit for him to get on me. Even if he didn't hit me, he should still have hit, because if he were legit, not hitting for a single second could lead to me breaking his combo. Therefore, it is likely that he simply toggled his killaura for a moment.
Another piece of evidence is that his head tracking was aimed at the center of my top body, and whenever I jumped or his knockback hit me up, his head snapped upward. It is subtle, but if you pause the video and do a frame by frame analysis, or play the video at 25% speed, you can see it.
Still, the biggest piece of evidence is that his timings on me were absolutely perfect, even though in a few of the hits, if he had hit a bit faster, he could have gotten more hits on me, and still had his weapon recharged for the next hit, because he was knocking me away anyways. However, he stayed with the same timings. All the good players I know, including one of the top killers of pvp duels, all alternate their timings to get the best possible damage.
I don't call hacks easily. I have been killed with 10 hearts and / or hit from 8 blocks away and still didn't directly call hacks. I have killed players and still called hacks on them, correctly. I believe that this player is hacking, with 96% probability. Please examine the evidence, and tell me your opinion.
