Hi again Brad, just another reminder that there are no infinite mana hacks, cast range hacks, +GPM / XPM hacks, or really any hacks at all like you accuse people of using. You're using "hacks" to deflect away from your own poor gameplay, such as dying 19 times as a midlaner. Focus on your own gameplay and you will improve.
Overview
By far, the most common reason Bradley cites for a lost game of Dota 2 is the presence of hackers/cheaters. They are extremely prevalent in all of Bradley's games, and unluckily for him they are only ever on the enemy team and never his own.
Often times, Bradley will attempt to prove the existence of a hack by meticulously scrubbing through the game replay frame by frame, or by testing every possible variation he can think of in demo mode. To date, not a single instance of legitimate hacking/cheating has been identified.
