Suspicious OOS and Aztec Smurfs

[callentournies]

So anyone that actually plays qs lately has probably noticed an uptick of <50 game smurfs that only play aztec and only do the staryu build (age w/WH, mayan allies, 700w, units, units, units).

I played another one of them today and the game suspiciously OOS'd while they were losing their last units and the game.

Normally I wouldn't make much of it. But I think it may fit into who the hell is making all of these aztec accounts.

After 3 minutes of sorting aoe3explorer by win rate I've identified no less than eight different <60 game accounts with ~80%+ win rate that only play aztec, many which I've played, and only do the staryu build:

There's no way anyone could have 5 musks mid map at 6 mins there are this many unique players all deciding to make smurfs and do the same build every single game all plateauing at the same Elo. There's also no way anyone is legitimately paying $20/pop to play staryu build vs basically bots. There's also no way anyone decent enjoys making a new account any time they get to an Elo they have to play people with thumbs eight different times, but here we are.

Basically I think this is one person who gets a kind of pleasure or validation by always winning by always making new accounts, and if they can do that without paying I'm assuming they're a haker who can OOS.

Or there aren't enough players and Microsoft decided to add some bots to the quicksearch.

The player APRIL might not be a person, but a bot.
Also someone who participated in the tournament may not actually be a human, but a program developed by Microsoft. XD

[Mr_Bramboy]

Cool find. I've faced at least two of these accounts. Interesting how this person is getting accounts for free (or spending $100+ on accounts?)

[Mr_Bramboy]

To be fair, keys are around $5 on reseller sites at the moment. So if you really wanted to you could drop $25 on five accounts, which is a lot less excessive.

It's Moesbar. He cashed out bigly when bitcoin peaked and he's now buying and discarding AOE accounts to feel what being rich is like

It would be pretty interesting to see how covert bots would do at different levels on the ladder. Is the technology there to make bots that could hover at 1000 elo, 1500 elo, 2000 elo? What’s the upper limit and would it be obvious it’s a bot?

[alistairpeter]

I'm not convinced this is the best Aztec rush

I remember a guy back in the day that was number 1 on the leaderboards on cod 5. He bought 12 playstations and 12 copies of the game just so he could fill ranked lobbies by himself and get thousands of kills. So spending even $100 really is nothing.

That's quite a lot of dedication - I wonder how many TVs/monitors he had or if he just did a lot of cable swapping
