Valve has implemented a new way to deal with Deadlock cheaters: turn them into frogs.
Deadlock, the MOBA shooter that’s currently only available for invited play testers, has incorporated a new way to punish cheaters, and it involves turning them into frogs.
Yes, really. In Deadlock‘s recent 09-26-2024 update, Valve introduced an anti-cheat detection system. When it notices that a player is cheating during a round, they get two choices: either ban them immediately or turn them into a frog — and then they get banned. If this occurs, that particular game won’t count for either side.
The Deadlock Intel account on X (formerly Twitter) posted a video of what this looks like.
