- Isn't Blizzard's Warden enough for a community OW2 tournament?
-
Warden protects official Blizzard matches but gives third-party organizers no visibility into players' machines. SkedAC complements Warden by providing a dashboard with screenshots, active processes and hardware — proof you keep and analyze for your own decisions.
- Does SkedAC detect hero-specific Overwatch aim-assist scripts?
-
SkedAC detects device emulators (Cronus, XIM) and automation processes. Behavioral detection covers the common vectors: DLLs injected into the game process, scripts in active processes and traces in the system registry.
- Is SkedAC compatible with Overwatch 2 on Battle.net?
-
Yes. SkedAC monitors the
Overwatch.exe process regardless of the Battle.net launcher. It works with no modification or complex setup.
- Can SkedAC be used for a regional Overwatch 2 league or an amateur OWL circuit?
-
Yes. The Community plan (free) covers up to 128 players for one-off tournaments. The Pro plan (€49/month) scales to 1,000 players with per-session AI analysis and Discord webhook alerts — ideal for a regular league.
- Does SkedAC detect DMA cards (hardware cheats)?
-
SkedAC detects advanced hardware indicators consistent with DMA setups and other PCIe/NVMe/HID anomalies frequently associated with hardware cheating devices. It's one of the few tools accessible to community esports organizations that covers this attack vector, usually reserved for AAA solutions.
- Does SkedAC detect Cronus, XIM and other adapters?
-
Yes. Adapters that simulate automatic behavior (aim assist, macros) through device emulation are identified and flagged as high-priority alerts.
- Does the SkedAC software slow down the PC or the game?
-
No. SkedAC is designed to be discreet: hardware scans run at login, screenshots are asynchronous and process snapshots are lightweight. The performance impact is negligible.
- How do players log in?
-
Through their Discord account — one click, no SkedAC account to create. A single
.exe file to distribute: the software configures itself for your organization.
- Does SkedAC work on every game?
-
SkedAC works with PC games because monitoring happens at the player's machine level, independently of the game server. You simply configure the target process (e.g. FC26.exe, cod.exe) in your dashboard — without modifying the client or contacting anyone.
- Is player data GDPR-compliant?
-
Yes. Screenshots are automatically deleted after 48h. Each admin signs a DPA (Data Processing Agreement) before accessing the dashboard. Data is strictly isolated between organizations — no cross-client leakage. Hosted in Europe.
- Can a banned player come back with another account?
-
A banned player can't simply come back with a new Discord account or nickname. SkedAC identifies each machine with a robust hardware fingerprint (Machine ID), independent of the account. If a previously sanctioned machine reconnects, your admins are alerted immediately.
- Can SkedAC be used without the Sked platform?
-
Yes, completely. SkedAC works independently. Running on Toornament, Discord or your own tool? SkedAC integrates frictionlessly — players log in via Discord only.
- Does anything need to be installed on the game server?
-
No. SkedAC is a Windows application installed on the player's machine. No server-side integration, no modification of game files.
