Six Game-Breaking Exploits That Got Banned in Esports
Ойындар
No game is ever perfect from the get-go.
Some bugs can completely ruin the experience for a few unfortunate souls, but others can really screw things up for everyone involved. And when someone decides to abuse a bug, things can get especially dicey.
Over the years, there have been plenty of players who have taken bugs and exploits a little too far, and toed the line of what should really be allowed on the server.
Today we're looking at some of the craziest exploits that got banned in esports.

Yup thats Riot, the smallest thigs they worry about and banning it midgame what can happen inside the game should just remain for the rest of the match, because thats part of skill or strategy its up to the enemy side to figure out whats happening, and if they cant well they lose

Fountain hook was not banned. It was patched right after the tournament since it's hard to execute, and it's also high risk, high reward, and hard to restart when the Pudge player misses. Was kinda hoping to see it mentioned as a runner up, though.

Fountain hook wasn't banned or "illegal" on ti.
Silent plant (so the bomb doesn't tick) in 1.6 and broken ramp flash on nuke. Also looking under the walls in de_train
What about that one jumping exploit in CS GO, where you were able to look over things without your head peaking over?
I love how players are punished for being creative and pushing the bounds of the game. Don't get angry that the players are smarter than the people that coded the game.
The Florida Mayhem play was one of the most hype moments from that stage last season!
Can we just appreciate the cat loaf on the back there at 6.00 10/10 loaf
See the thing about olofboost and wished the OW2 Mei/Sym tele would follow is that even though its ruled against, it was forever enshrined in the map with a tag. I would love to see the Mayham's logo on that wall or a little mei bot above a sim tele spray painted where it was executed. Let your players define your lore if your an esport
Im suprised Dendi's fountain hook is not included in this vid.
I would think that the Jett super dash was a Game-Breaking Exploit

I wonder how many of these exploits have already been talked about in a dedicated video....
who else read the title and knew olaf boost was gonna be in this video?
I think most people forget, but LDLC was also pixel walking during the match against Fnatic.
Saw the title and immediately knew Olofboost is gonna be here. Beautiful
Hearthstone had a nasty exploit you could do. Whenever you play a card, they have a cool animation to go with it, if you were to play a card towards the end of your turn, the animation will fully play out even when your turn is over. So what you could do is have so many animations playing that you can skip your opponent's turn as they'd have all but 1 second to play.

I saw that one talked about by many hearthstone content creators, the first time I saw it in gameplay I couldn’t help but laugh at how ridiculous it was. The guy had managed to set up the opponent well with the exploit using multiple cards to draw out the animation. By the end of the turn the opponent didn’t even have time to make a single play utterly ridiculous.
the overwathc league clip is using a strat from like 2019 glad they used it
I find the valorant one funny. You mentioned they lost because of this, so either they lost because they didnt go ontop of the box (which is dumb because its still jett.) Or they lost because they had to use an updraft to get there.. If thats the case did they really ever have a chance?
I would like to point out how good of a loaf Liz's cat has going in the background.
riot logic: highly skilled jump= glitch
Not having the fountain hook from Dota is actually criminal. "THAT WAS THE BIGGEST JOKE I'VE EVER SEEN. THE BIGGEST F*CKING JOKE I'VE EVER SEEN"
I wish blizzard would allow mei ice wall tactics so the more creative team gets rewarded
Without even opening the video I knew the olofboost would be in this
Where's the fcking fountain hook pudge? Loda was malding so hard like a gangsta about it. LMAO
back when trackmania ESWC started the esport route they banned "speeddrifting" for bugusing, nowadays its a feature.....but still a bug.
Hands down the biggest issue with this channel is not having someone familiar with the specific subjects proof read everything. I can't enjoy the stuff when its talking about something im deeply familiar with and they're getting details wrong. Feels like like its hard to trust any of the videos at this point.
About the Jet Jump, did i get that right? So it's ok to jump on the box with an ability but it's an exploid if you can reach it without said ability?
I like the tuxedo cat in the background
that olaf boost is the dirtiest of the dirty
I forget the name, but what was that DOTA 2 glitch where they could hook someone from spawn?
Out of the 4500 videos on score eSports channel there's a mention of olofboost in like 1500 of them 💀
i was able to get on the box with skye before just crouch spamming up once

The TI2 NAVI fountain hooks.
if you couldve left the spectator cam exploit and not do the olof boost (again) and place an exploit from another game, like r6
"death threats from passionate fans" - they are not passionate, they are absolute idiots. Death threats are NEVER ok, much less for a game. Brazil fans dont seem to understand this
Is there a gaming company offers to debug/debugging work list for their game?
it's funny how you never see the best competitive game in this kind of videos, of course I am talking abount Dota!
should have added "Wombling" from Ice Climbers in Melee
0:54 dude has the milkies lol
Putting a Sheila on Crypto's Drone was pretty broken.
Some of these are straight up just normal shit you can do in game, why is it even considered an exploit?
lion from R6 jsut teh character existence was exploit material XD
That smoke. Has been in the game. For YEARS.
Dendi's fountain hook should have been included
Days theScore has gone without mentioning 'the boost': 0
how can u forget dendi's fountain hook?
No way fountain hook wasn’t mentioned 😂
Let’s be honest, olofboost wasn’t an exploit. It’s game knowledge, skill of pixel walking and run boosting. Just pure skill but sore losers will be sore losers.
... and after all that, Astralis welcomes Hunden back with open arms. I lost so much respect for them because of this decision.
The valorant ban should have been the cypher cam that can't be destroyed on breeze used by vivo keyd during champions
Just came to see the inevitable Olofboost feature
Where's the Pudge + Chen fountain hook?
Where's the fountain hook at? lmao
DotA2 fountain hook, that one will live forever.
Do you guys heard about the olofboost? Maybe you should mention that one too, you seem to have missed it.
I'm gonna assume the producers of the channel told her to wear that baseball cap to look more "boyish", or something. it just looks awkward wearing a cap inside in front of a computer screen.
The Jett boost was so unbelievably pointless. Boo hoo a character got up their without using a $200 ability charge using a skill jump. Why does it matter?
The pixel perfect cross map Jett dash
blanka's secret power is time stop XD oh wait its a bug lol
How did they not put wobbling in melee, I swear this channel only talks about 3-4 esports

what i cant understand is the part where all these where very known... How can the Developer(s) make the player(s) look bad in this situation?? Its almost like they have to many micromanagement departments and information is being lost in-between. What ever happened to "experts on the topic" or "referee". These players but all there emotional energy into these games. probably travel to attent events, and in the end when they outsmart everyone. They get looked down upon. great world we got going here.
No fountain-hook... Sadge
