Tim spends most of his time in Caldera alongside his best friends. Moreover, the streamer comes across many stream snipers or hackers who ruin his game entirely. Interestingly, the streamer has harshly reacted to this issue multiple times after getting eliminated during some high-stakes games. But recently, the tables turned as he had time to troll a hacker amidst a casual game.?

In the video posted below, we can see a hacker trying to shoot Tim. Unfortunately, his hack didn’t work, thanks to the Ricochet anti-cheat system. A few months back, Call of Duty published a blog report updating the anti-cheat system. They said,?‘If you?re being shot and see your health slowly trickle down, you know it?s likely a cheater on the other end of the battle. The cheater, in turn, wastes ammo and eventually realizes they have been detected.’

During the game, Tim found a similar reaction from his opponent, confirming that he was a cheater. TimTheTatman said,?‘you d0 not learn your lesson. RICOCHET is working buddy. You can?t be hacking on us anymore. This isn?t Verdansk now, we are past that time.’ ?
