Watched this happen in real-time last night. The stream cut to a generic "We'll be back" interstitial between rounds, which is normal, but it lasted longer than usual and eventually cut to a "Thanks for watching!" card. Stream ended. Chaos ensued.
What's interesting is that the two confirmed targets (Hal and Gen—not sure if any others were impacted) are two top dogs on the scene right now. IIRC their respective teams have a somewhat friendly rivalry going on. In other words, these are guys with lots of wins under their belt who don't need aimbots to take home cash prizes.
So I'm rabidly curious to know how the person behind the hack pulled this off, but also really want to how they chose the specific players to target or what their motivations were in the first place. Maybe they have some kind of grudge and they want to "expose" (read as: frame) these guys or just get their hands dirty.
