Hello

Please excuse me if this has been previously posted but I could not locate using a quick search.

Yesterday I was in a Lightning round and after about 30min or so a new leader appeared at the top of the list of participants. When I looked at this persons roster there were maybe 6-7 toons all around level 10-15. This person had gained over 400 points in the round.

How is this possible? Also if this was in fact some sort of hacker how do I report him/her on my Ipad?

Thanks in advance

    not a hacker.. when i was a noob, i regularly got 400+ points in LR's with only a couple 2*s, you get seed teams, followed by other noobs and whatnot, the loaner does most of the heavy lifting.

    This is why you see 1000 people in a bracket, but only ever fight like 20 of them.. you would never put a max 270 team against any of the 150 noob teams in that bracket.

    If you fight the seeds (100 pts) and 10 other noob teams , each worth 20 - 30 pts, that is 300-400 pts in about 45 minutes, and rarely any retals, as most of the noob teams are just doing seeds for iso.

    Now if they hit 650-1k with only 6 slots and no leveled toons.. i would be concerned.

    When they redid MMR, they told us that once you're score gets high enough, everyone can see you.

    If the road to 400+ in LR was this easy for someone with lv10 characters, I think we'd see way more of them on the first page of the leaderboard. I'm way more inclined to say that this person is a hacker.

    Instructions on reporting suspected cheaters may be found here.

    Threads discussing suspected cheaters go downhill quickly, so I'm going to preemptively lock this topic.
