The cheating issue is plaguing the game but it seems that Activision simply doesn’t care to implement a solution for it. The game is free-to-play which means that cheaters can simply create countless accounts over and over again without restrictions, even if they did get caught in cheating.<\/p>\n
A lot of players are rightfully furious about it, including Thomas “Tommey” Trewren, who is currently a streamer for 100 Thieves and a professional Warzone player.<\/p>\n
Tommey is regularly competing in Warzone tournaments and income from those events is an important part of his earnings. That’s why he’s extremely frustrated with Activision and their lack of action to prevent cheating in Warzone.<\/p>\n
In fact, he decided to take matters into his own hands and starts hunting cheaters on his own.<\/p>\n
\nWell, looks like we got another one. Hate that it even comes down to this but wow, shit is horrible. Hope this opened your eyes to what’s really going on in a lot of these tournaments. <\/p>\n
Praying there’s an anti-cheat coming soon.<\/p>\n

On 19th January, he was playing in the Mainland Gaming Warzone Invitational when he noticed suspicious behaviour by Pacesetter, a small Warzone streamer with an established tournaments reputation, who was also participating at the event.<\/p>\n
He started to analyse Pacesetter’s behaviour by watching his VODs and noticed a lot of extremely unusual moments in his playstyle.<\/p>\n

There are several instances where it seems like he is completely unaware of his surroundings or walking unnaturally straight to some locations without checking corners and potential ambushes. And in a few instances, he seems to be shooting almost blindly into enemies.<\/p>\n
There’s a moment when he goes to a location, says that there are enemies there, and then checks his Heartbeat Sensor which confirms that.<\/p>\n
Pacesetter often wasn’t checking corners and was running straight to the enemies locations’ blindly (Picture: Pacesetter\/Tommey)<\/span><\/p>\nWhen he was confronted with these accusations, he denied that he was cheating and when admins wanted to check his PC, he suspiciously went AFK for almost two hours after which he justified that by saying that he was talking with his dad.<\/p>\n
