As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that Valve has truly outdone themselves this time with Deadlock’s latest anti-cheat system. The hacker-to-frog transformation is not only ingenious but also incredibly entertaining!
Valve finally patched an anti-cheat system into their new game, Deadlock. And it’s incredible.
Not every frog is a prince
Initially, one significant issue with Deadlock at its release was the absence of an effective anti-cheat mechanism. However, they’ve since implemented one, and it’s truly impressive.
Currently, should it be discovered that someone is cheating in Deadlock, the other players will become aware of the situation. Then, they have the power to determine the appropriate punishment for the offender.
Teams have two options: swiftly kick out a suspected cheater from the game right away, or, if they prefer some amusement, transform the offender into a harmless frog for the remainder of the match. This frog is unable to cause damage and can only hop around, mimicking a frog’s natural behavior.

Even though the transformed frog once a hacker doesn’t pose any threat, other players can still track and eliminate it. However, having a hacker-turned-frog as part of your team won’t result in penalties if you decide to exit the game without consequences.
Despite hackers persistently attempting their malicious activities, it’s refreshing to observe Valve adopting a more entertaining approach to combat them, rather than just imposing bans. This tactic offers a satisfying release for the team who had to face the hacker.
So what next, how about turning CS hackers into chickens?
