In this video, I'll discuss some of the tools used for cheating in Hero Wars, what few types of cheating are historically punished, and which types of cheats users seem to be able to do with complete impunity.

EDIT: My erratic scrolling of the ToE top25 has caused some suspicion on accounts that I've never heard of. I DO NOT have proof of cheating by most of the people shown on the video and I'm sorry if you got any accusations based on this video:
