cheats - still working?

[Lucky]

Does anybody know if the cheats are still working?
I read here somewhere that the "instant surrender" cheat may be patched already, but I am more worried about the cheat showing your opponent's cards, because you never know if someone is using that.

Also, are you guys continuing to play the game in this state? If so, how do you deal with cheaters?

It's been patched or is getting patched. Either way, they're dealing with it.

I personally haven't seen one doing the surrender cheat ever, and if I did I wouldn't even care: I've been Platinum 1 since the second day of this season. I agree that showing the opponent's cards may be worse because you don't know if you've ever been cheated with that.

Anyway, the fix will probably need to be applied with a patch both server and client side, so you know it hasn't probably been fixed until the version number goes up.

Just played a game where someone disabled Max C effect just kept special summoning and I never got a draw. Max C would pop up showing the effect trigger and then no draw.

...You just need to make the replay public from inside the game and share your player ID.

Until further evidence is provided I'm just gonna assume that the opponen just used Droll & Lock Bird.

Do you have any idea how many times people claimed to have been victim of a bug or a cheat but was their fault for not reading the opponent's cards, non knowing the rules, or even not reading their own cards?

Dude, you can't understand anything of what happened from those 4 pictures. In the same menu you open to watch a replay there's the option to make that replay public. Do it, and then share the player ID. Or screencap (not screenshot, screencap) the replay and post the video.

I got hit with the forced surrender yesterday so who knows

Just lol at believing Konamis lies. The same cheat being used now is the same one that was used in Duel Links for many years and they did nothing.

You activated Maxx "C" and the opponent chaind Pittore to Special Summon a Witchcrafter to it.

First Pittore resolves, special summoning a "Witchcrafter" monster from the Deck, and only after that Maxx "C" resolved, allowing you to draw cards for each time the opponent Special Summons from that point onwards, which the opponent didn't.

You have correctly not drawn 0 cards from Maxx "C"'s effect.

You can read this thread in which I explain how chains work:

According to someone on reddit the game logic isn't server side but client side which makes injections easy.

Incorrect they specail summoned Witchcrafter Madame Verre.

I take it back you are right, but it is jank. The game in replay indicated Max C trigger... but that might be chain resolution. They really should change the effect of a trigger from an end chain. They are identical.

Yes, but before Maxx "C" resolved, so you don't draw any card.

This is an example of the guy saying that has been victim of a cheat not knowing the rules of the game, which is fine: everyone has to start somewhere and even world class judges make incorrect calls because of how complex the game is, but please, stop acting entitled.

Maxx "C"'s effect doesn not aplly to the game ("Resolve") as soon as you discard it, this is not Pokémon or Rush Duels.

Once you discard it, before the effect resolves, the opponent can do something, and decided to Special Summon a "Witchcrafter" monster by the effect of Witchcrafter Pittore before Maxx "C" resolved, since Maxx "C" has not resolved yet, you correctly do not get do draw 1 card from Maxx "C". Maxx "C" only draws you cards for Special Summons that happened after the resolution, not the ones before it as well.

As I've said earlier, I advise you to have further readings about how chains work, it'll clarify what happened a lot more than what I can do in a short post.

Chill it gets confusing in the interface some animations are not different enough to determine that. Especially when it shows a chain resolution, but then doesn't show the other in chain. It is graphically hard to tell what is going on.
