A Twitch streamer is ranked 2nd in the leaderboard of Call of Duty: Vanguard, then he gets caught using cheats. Now it is known how he explains his wallhacks, but the reason may not fully convince. MeinMMO tells you more.
In just 3 seconds, a Twitch streamer lost everything. pplehx is live on Twitch and is playing CoD Vanguard – the game where he ranks 2nd in the leaderboard.
Then he briefly has technical problems. For 3 seconds, his stream stutters. His capture program seems to lose orientation and doesn’t know what to film. The streamer complains about the stuttering, but his viewers see more than they should:
For 3 seconds, crystal clear wallhacks are visible in the stream. The viewers finally see what the player sees as well, namely red-outlined opponents, even through walls.
Here you can find all the details about this story:
The new leaderboard mode in CoD Vanguard has a serious cheat scandal. The streamer then deletes his Twitter and Twitch accounts. However, images are circulating on social media showing how the cheater explains his wallhacks.
“I didn’t know how to turn them off again”
An image is circulating on Twitter from a Twitch chat. It shows the cheater pplehx reacting to a user.
pplehx apparently said that he only started using the wallhacks after he was already ranked 2nd. He was then asked why he needed cheats if he was already so high up.
The explanation raises eyebrows: “I used [the wallhacks] for the diamond camo and didn’t know how to turn them off again.”
The second-best player in the world is said to have used blatant wallhacks to help unlock weapon skins. Then he reportedly didn’t know how to turn the cheats off, and simply shrugged and accepted them.
This serious oversight was apparently well hidden by pplehx, as he never mentioned, explained, or asked for help regarding the “unintended” advantage before the fateful Twitch clip.
It has been noticed: In the clip showing the cheats, he doesn’t even use the diamond camo. His primary weapon even has the standard skin. Perhaps also because the diamond skins are not exactly pretty.
For this explanation, pplehx is ridiculed on social media. FPS pro Ian “Enable” Wyatt doesn’t even need to explain why this excuse is ridiculous – he simply repeats it and garnishes the statement with 3 emoji:
In the meantime, the ranking in the game has been updated. Where pplehx was ranked 2nd yesterday, he has now completely disappeared:
The story of the wallhack user in the top 2 has generated a lot of discussion in the community. Some were shocked that someone so prominent could remain unnoticed for so long. Others, however, were not surprised at all – they even believe there could be more cheaters in the top 10.
Because the story of pplehx is not the only cheating incident in CoD Vanguard in recent weeks. One player even pointed a camera directly at his wallhacks:
