Cheaters are typically really trash at the game they cheat in. I've 1v1d a cheater in a csgo aim map when he turned it off and it was 15-0 i won. He turned it on 8-15 I lost.

It's even funnier when you realize that having consistently perfect SDI would make you predictable and when your opponent figures that out you'd be even easier to combo then if you just did it yourself
It's quite interesting to see the skill difference of smash DI cheaters. I remember there being a peach that was doing the same thing. Although they both had the power to escape any combo they ever wanted, they both manage to somehow get in worse situations than if they were SDI'ing, or even DI'ing normally. What's even the point of using macros if you don't know how to use them to gain an advantage? Just play the game normally.
Melee feels like the strangest game to cheat at for me. I could understand really brutal inputs like the new subfloat turnip z drop to pull turnips as fast possible, and maybe perfect ledgedashes, but those can make or break a tournament game and so easy to tell if you're cheating IRL
@@skyninegaming melee is a weird game to cheat at because you either have to be actually good to get any use out of your cheats, or you have to automate so much of the game that it's exceedingly obvious and you're barely doing anything on your own.

@vaLy Different games require you to have different levels of skill to be harder to find. In something like csgo, you can tune cheats to be rather hard to spot with even a mediocre skill level because of how the whole game functions as opposed to something like melee, where it's much more difficult to get positive results from cheating
Because people get frustrated losing over and over again in a game thats over 20 years old. They desperately chase the dopamine release that is winning, regardless of whether theyre actually building skill
I got canceled on the smash subreddit for reporting slippi hacking in August of 2021. To see you dissect these inputs in these videos is bizarre, because everyone refused to believe someone was using a macro to cheat on unranked.
Lol, imagine being in the FPS scene were the majority of pros are using humanized undetectable aim assists and using basic hardware cheats to continue cheating in LAN. You'll be told to "get gud" even though you still top .1% in the game without cheats.
I'm interested in what the actual values are of the non-one peaks and dips shown at around 5:10. When I first saw them, they seemed far too regular to me to have been caused by polling rate issues. Not to mention that the values they appear to take seem very close to 0.707, or 1/sqrt(2). If these are the analog x and y inputs, wouldn't those inputs be corresponding to a 45 degree or other diagonal input? This would make sense to me as many of the programmed SDI input seemed to include diagonals.
@@gregoryford2532 I'm not entirely sure, I'm just going off how he says "they don't exactly hit the peaks every single time" at around 5:20, I assumed he meant the spikes that don't reach a full 1 value. Not sure though, would like to hear from him to see what he meant originally
You can also program error into a bot. I bet there are bots already that are indistinguishable from real players, you just have to have a lot of patterns and some inconsistency.
@@wtf17727 that's a good point, I had considered that but at the time of the upload I guess I didn't think the person making the bot would think that deeply. Although it's certainly possible consider how few lines of code it would take to put slight inconsistencies into the final inputs.
I have never played smash but for some reason I find your video fascinating and impossible to stop watching. Wish more competitive games had people like you.
The only thing I have to say for this “Dang, you’ve had nearly 20 years to get into the pro level legitimately, and you decided to cheat at a 20 year old game. That’s sad asf.
As someone who has never played Melee and barerly saw any tournaments, where do I start playing? Maybe just starting in sleepy? Any tips on how to play the game?
what is even the point of cheating on freaking melee online? there isn't even a ranked mode and no one really is watching you so your not gonna impress anyone. that's kinda sad tbh
These are always a treat. GG Bork. These give me high hopes for ranked. Would it be possible to implement an input cap so players get automatically banned from online play? Maybe just flag players at the very least before ranked comes out? In certain games developers use speed caps to tell if players are cheating. Half Life has a speed cap for forward movement, not backwards. Certain MMOs have a acceleration cap where unnatural acceleration results in an instant ban or suspension.
Cool series keep it up. Quick question about how slippi is tracking mmr regarding quit outs, if a player quits out does that effect mmr of the players?
When I saw the input spazzing, my first thought was that it could be a faulty controller. If there's a busted wire or a faulty connection to the stick, it could, for example, cause it to read wildly random inputs if e.g. you point the stick in a specific direction. I actually had an issue kind of like that on one controller, except all it did was that pointing the stick up wouldn't read as going full up. This caused issues where trying to move forward in some games would cause my character to start walking instead of running, or rapidly switch between running and walking. Anyway, based on the analysis later in the video, it looks like the input spazzing is not, in fact, random, and is quite regular, so yeah, probably cheating.
Awesome video! Do you have any ideas behind the greater intent of the cheater? Like do people try to use these mods in tournament and they are testing them on Slippi? Seems like a lot of work to go through for a hardware mod.
Only speculation, but people tend to cheat when they feel like they "deserve" it. Bork is clearly a mid-level player who has spent a considerable amount of time playing Melee, and tries to cheat to skip ahead.
Some other mindsets I can imagine would be: 1) Cheating to break a frustrating skill plateau 2) Considering their own clever "workarounds" as part of the "skill" they use to win 3) Wanting to see their name on top of the leaderboards and forgetting that morals exist And perhaps others. There's never just one reason people do things, even if one reason is far more common than the others.
macros are generally banned in tournaments but no controller rules are enforced, so if someone wanted to, they could use an SDI macro at a super major. It just hasn't really happened yet.
Also, they are definitely using a box style controller to do this, which is much easier to program for perfect SDI than creating a gamecube controller mod of your own and installing it.
The replay only records controller inputs and then the launcher plays them back again. Plenty of games do replays like this and are also used to catch cheaters, the first Doom comes to my mind.
How do you view button inputs with a replay? I have m'overlay and it works in game but anytime i try and use it when viewing a match. it does not work. what do you have to do to get it to work for replays?
I don’t play smash but I was wondering, could them be playing in a keyboard? Mapping directional keys to the analog. Since with a keyboard you can press multiple keys at once, those reactions look less crazy
Good analysis, not sure I'm convinced this is a macro running on hardware though. Macro programs tend to struggle to keep their inputs synced with a game's framerate, seems this could just be something like AutoHotKey to me.
@@calebrobinson6406 Macro programs create the same artifacts because they usually can't make exactly one input per frame reliably. Sometimes they'll make two inputs in a frame (only one of which will register) or they'll make one input last two frames. We can't really know if this is a macro program issue or if it's a controller polling issue from the replay file.
I know there are fast players out there with the joystick. Esam is one of those. He also takes pride on it at times. Not sure if there would be people who can reach that level of speed. But there also might be. But it is something said from a person who doesn't know himself on how fast people can actually get with a joystick.
@@gregoryford2532 Well yeah I can tell since I'm french myself x) There's also a little joke in his slippi tag "Aime Touquet" which in french sounds like "M2K"
*Nitpicks:* At 3:44, you claim to illustrate the average, but you're actually illustrating the mode. At 5:11, you plot the X,Y values and claim they're not exactly perfect. In fact, they are. Diagonal presses don't reach the full value since they're bounded by a circle, instead reaching cos(45 deg) = sin(45 deg) = 1/sqrt(2), or around 70.7% on both axes.
The first nitpick is totally correct. I think in my head I meant to say "typical" value or something. Mode would be most correct, but a bit technical. The second one, I sort of glazed over the details of this since it was getting really technical and kind of didn't matter. But you're right that the peaks of the graph aren't the inconsistent part, it's actually the pattern of them over time.
@@ClashBluelight They aren’t all averages, only the mean (aka the “arithmetic mean”) is. One name that _does_ apply to all of them though is “measures of central tendency”.
@@ClashBluelight In everyday speech people do sometimes call the median the “average” though, for instance. That’s why it’s best to avoid the term “average” if you mean something more specific.
while this is obviously cheating, it looks more like an unskilled player using an SDI macro to make up for their poorer performance. They probably thought "if it's possible humanly, it shouldn't matter if I do it digitally", but the smash community and especially melee is all about natural feats/ and integrity. I think it's ultimately meaningless because it's an online ladder but should obviously never be allowed locally. Some people are more focused on the end result, and not the hours of grinding it takes to get there naturally.
This kind of cheat doesn't require actual hardware. You can create a virtual joystick and implement the macros there. If you're using a keyboard, you can also implement it there by hooking into your OS's keyboard state. You can also use a combination of these 2 - say X360CE, vJoy, Vigem - and implement your cheats there and hook your real controller in through it as well. And at no point do you need to hook into the gamestate data (ie, peek at memory) - since the timings for nearly everything is known - you just program your first button in a sequence, the appropriate wait until the next action, the next action, next wait - etc. Tons of ways to get macros into Slippi, and almost all of them are FREE!
If there are ever hard line cut offs where a program can catch this, the criminals will just go directly below the cut off. Tough to catch all the cheaters

The second one, I sort of glazed over the details of this since it was getting really technical and kind of didn't matter. But you're right that the peaks of the graph aren't the inconsistent part, it's actually the pattern of them over time.
Wait, aren't mean, median, and mode all called the averages? So wouldn't calling a mode an average be correct?
@@ClashBluelight They aren’t all averages, only the mean (aka the “arithmetic mean”) is. One name that _does_ apply to all of them though is “measures of central tendency”.
@@ClashBluelight In everyday speech people do sometimes call the median the “average” though, for instance. That’s why it’s best to avoid the term “average” if you mean something more specific.
@@RonWolfHowl Really? I was taught that those three made up a group called the averages. Guess my school was wrong.
i can't believe he was banned just for being better. hopefully one day we can see justice for this honest man
while this is obviously cheating, it looks more like an unskilled player using an SDI macro to make up for their poorer performance.
They probably thought "if it's possible humanly, it shouldn't matter if I do it digitally", but the smash community and especially melee is all about natural feats/ and integrity.
I think it's ultimately meaningless because it's an online ladder but should obviously never be allowed locally.
Some people are more focused on the end result, and not the hours of grinding it takes to get there naturally.
But the cheated SDI they're using _isn't_ humanly possible. It's not just putting them on the same level as top humans, it's going well past it.
love these breakdowns but the unlabelled chart axes are driving me insane dude
This kind of cheat doesn't require actual hardware. You can create a virtual joystick and implement the macros there. If you're using a keyboard, you can also implement it there by hooking into your OS's keyboard state. You can also use a combination of these 2 - say X360CE, vJoy, Vigem - and implement your cheats there and hook your real controller in through it as well. And at no point do you need to hook into the gamestate data (ie, peek at memory) - since the timings for nearly everything is known - you just program your first button in a sequence, the appropriate wait until the next action, the next action, next wait - etc.
Tons of ways to get macros into Slippi, and almost all of them are FREE!
I can’t see the plains art in the background but I know it’s their seeing the island, swamp, mountain and forest
Instant Sub. Love you forever AltF4, bans and all.
There you have it folks, Gurvan is French
The John Avon posters are so nice when theyre that size
If there are ever hard line cut offs where a program can catch this, the criminals will just go directly below the cut off. Tough to catch all the cheaters
i feel like you can interpret his name as c’monking pretty well
Can you get that consistent with a hit box controller?
bro was really out here spazz di'ing
Nice Unhinged land art on the wall 👌
i like your wall art. is that mtg lands?
Why anyone would cheat in this flipping children's party game is beyond me.
