7:01 grey casts ability close to oj. Creeps gave vision of oj heading back with low hp, so it really isn't suspicious that grey would do that.

11:51 blue wind-walks and approaches grey, grey backs off while no way of knowing that blue is in ww close to him.
11:52 grey even pings where blue was next to him, as if he knew blue was there.
11:57 grey literally casts his ability right on top of where blue was, right as blue snaps out of wind-walk. This whole play from 11:51-11:57 looks like obvious map-hack to me.

14:45 Grey is bottom lane creeping, then all of a sudden backs off as blue is approaching from the west (no vision of blue coming), grey goes east to hide in the trees by the goblin merch/lab. Seems very suspicious to me.

16:50 Grey is pushing top, then all of a sudden backs off as blue is approaching from the south (again no vision of blue). This is pretty suspicious. Grey even backs his necro summons to keep them close to him for protection, rather than pushing the lane, which imo makes it more suspicious.

21:06 Grey starts backing out from bottom again, as blue approaches him in ww.
21:10 Grey is heading east, away from where tiny was then all of a sudden stops, blue was in ww about to cut off grey if grey had kept going east. Grey starts going back west, as if he knew blue was in ww waiting for him there.
21:16 Grey starts heading into the jungle in enemy territory, as if he knew there were no enemies around him.
The whole play from 21:06-21:20 looked like pretty obvious map-hack.

After reviewing the replay it certainly seems as if mike_weaver is a map-hacker and should be banned 1 year for it.

Well just noticed beerlord already processed it while I was reviewing it, but that was my review nonetheless.

@Hash nice review, although at the 21 min issue grey did have transient vision of blue coming east above the tree lane prior to ww (though his subsequent evasion was clearly mh).

[FalenGa]

Confirmed. Processing.

[FalenGa]

No definite dodge. Processing.
