Overwatch: A teenager is so good that people believe she must be cheating

A 17-year-old Overwatch player demonstrated in a stream that she truly has a lot of skill and doesn’t need hacks.

With a win rate of 80% in 420 matches played and an outstanding KDA of 6.31, Overwatch player Gegury drew a lot of attention. She played the character “Zarya” so well in tournaments that other players and spectators called her a hacker. It even went so far that 2 players made a bet: If it can be proven that Gegury is not hacking, then the 2 players would end their professional Overwatch careers immediately.

On stage, she showed that it is pure skill

After Gegury’s team won the qualifications for the Nexus Cup, the opposing team reported her as a cheater to Blizzard. The Blizzard team immediately investigated these accusations to see whether the allegations were justified.

A few days passed and Blizzard announced that no cheats could be proven for Gegury, thereby clearing her of the accusation of being a cheater. To support this decision and to show fans and especially competitors that she is truly not using hacks, she offered to come on stage and prove her skill with mouse and monitor surveillance.
