It is forensic. They don't deep dive into accounts unless the account is in a major tournament. And at 5 accounts to a team, it is very doable.

Yes, and I think they sprinkle in a bit of whatever location information they can pull as well.

I don't think it is elitism--I think it is SC not messing around with any potential underhandedness at the highest and most visible levels.  And I should add that the hypothetical really good player does have a route to a clean max THXX--to purchase stuff in game to get there  :eek:

Yes, they solved a lot of issues by getting a one hit/war format going (cheating), and then even more with a limited 5v5 format (war duration, stream-ability, TH flexibility). But it took a long time for the game to get there. Their biggest hurdle, IMO, is a long term issue: allowing access to...
