As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I can’t help but feel a sense of relief and satisfaction seeing Riot Games’ GamerDoc taking down cheaters like a modern-day Robin Hood. Cheating has been a persistent thorn in the side of gaming communities for far too long, and it’s heartening to see someone fighting back against these nefarious elements.
A creator of hacks for the games Valorant and League of Legends was unmasked after attempting to pay off Riot Games to avoid action against their software designed to bypass detection.
Cheating remains one of the biggest issues in gaming, with countless titles affected by waves of nefarious users who pay for aimbots, wall hacks, and other prohibited programs.
On October 23rd, it was announced that Riot’s Vanguard anti-cheat system swiftly dismantled a cheater’s spoofing tool, setting a new record for the fastest takedown by GamerDoc, an analyst on the Anti-Cheat team.
Fakers are crafted to circumvent the safety mechanisms of a game. As shown by the screenshots shared by GamerDoc, it appears that the developer devoted an entire year to creating a Vanguard faker, but this tool was removed within an hour.
In a conversation through Discord, the developer expressed, “Your actions are making me understand why some developers dislike you so much.” He then suggested, “Perhaps you should focus more on improving your self-image rather than affecting my earnings.” He concluded with a somewhat respectful tone, acknowledging the achievement and added, “Honestly, well done. However, I can’t help but feel irritated.
Took down his entire spoofer in under an hour ¯_(ツ)_/¯

After it was taken down, the dev messaged GamerDoc with an offer, willing to pay €5,000.
“I spent one f**king year writing hooks and reversing f**king VAC,” he said.
When asked simply, a Riot staff member didn’t mince words and likened the takedown to building with LEGO blocks.
“He spent a year building his LEGO masterpiece, I knocked it down in an hour, and now he’s offering me his best LEGO sets while going through every emotion possible—from angry to begging to ‘Respect, bro’ to bribery,” he joked.

Fans greatly appreciated the takedown and many are encouraging GamerDoc to collaborate with firms like Valve, Ubisoft, and Activision to help them improve their anti-cheat measures.
Just a few days ago, Call of Duty encountered a major issue involving an exploit which enabled mischief-makers to ban any player prematurely, before the release of Black Ops 6.
