I fight Saulcanner alot, we're both pretty much on the same level when it comes to blocking and while I'm not an expert when it comes to auto blocking, I'm >99% sure he's not autoblocking, specially when I can get hits in and actually kill him, he's just really good at blocking but he's not impossible to hit.

Well, I am an admittedly average player but I can't recall anyone that was impossible to hit at least once or twice. And I know I've beaten Espo 1v1 before. Bks_Tyrian and Harmless Peasant block multiple opponents regularly and they still play(well I haven't seen Peasant) so I assume they don't hack. So I don't know how anyone detects autoblock just from visual patterns.

Didn't chadz and crew just ban 40 keys like 2 months ago because of all the autoblockers?

Idfgi, what's so hard about clicking moving your mouse and clicking m2?   :mrgreen:

It's probably just a matter of observation: if one only gets hit from behind, and blocks everything flawlessly in such a margin that, let's face it, could only be explained by luck or the reincarnation of Bruce Lee, and does so consistently, then it's likely an autoblocker.  If it isn't, then it's performance enhancers.

Saul is an advanced AI that doesn't need hacks.

*gets on his elitist duelist pedestal*

If you dueled often enough and dueled him you'd know he doesn't auto-block.

Not gonna lie I thought SaulCanner autoblocked for a long time. 

But after seeing him more in duel etc he has a whole bunch of other skills that have helped persuade me to think otherwise (my thought is that typically autoblockers crutch on it and the rest of their game blows).

I would request that you throw in a few more random missed blocks from time to time to make the rest of us feel better about ourselves though.

Someone doesn't has to block everything flawlessly to be an autoblocker. Afterall, shielders are killed in melee. They won't missblock, but if they attack when they should block, bam.

I would just like to know this, if they are some how looking into peoples processes or what.
If you want to know if you are an autoblocker:

yes.

Thanks for asking.
