It’s a bit laggy here on APAC especially playing BG’s.
On the one hand, yes. That kind of thing exists and is sometimes exploited.
On the other hand, that is in no way a hack. What it is, is a bug.

One space is enough, no need to put them everywhere. 
The video is “private”.
We may need to have a Youtube account to watch it.
Don’t worry, there are among the people who wrote “the one who always knows better than everyone” who affirms everything and anything even when he doesn’t know.
The best is to ignore him completely like I did.
There was also the Nelly Colossus bug, dropping it would cause opponent to DC randomly with high probability and no indication in the UI.
Was confirmed to be a bug by Blizzard and then confirmed to have regressed at least once, ie it came back after an update that fixed it.
Not hacking per se, but exploitable nonetheless. Can we label it a hack? Nope. Did unsavory characters try to exploit it? Almost certainly. So where do we draw the line on this issue?

what a ridiculous comment. Do you even know how to admit that you are wrong?
Game is full of these.
They don’t fix them.
Nellie, the warrior pirate card would cause a race condition where the picking player could snap pick cards fast enough that the opposing player’s client would hang while waiting for an event message. It never comes and your client hangs (but you never get disconnected).
Most bugs don’t even get looked at, but this was in a popular deck with a high win rate. The fix? A event queue to prevent lost messages that still allows fast picks? No. Instead you will notice the card has a fixed time delay to every selection the picking player makes. Like a delay function is stuck in. Terrible “fix”.
Animations in the user interface in transitions are also abused to put in delays. If you are in battlegrounds and the match ends, there is a fade in for the return to menu. The screen is blank but the elements to the menu actually still there. If you click in the location where the start button is, you will trigger it even if not visible. What happens is if you do this, you appear to start searching/queuing immediately, but the server will disconnect you. Broken net code that is counting on there being a second delay.

Interesting. This makes me wonder…
“This video is private”. Why would you upload a video and make it private??
Anyway, I wanted to know what deck you were playing at the times of DC, just in case, although it’s probably not card bug related, but just server issues
To me, it stopped happening, except for router reset every day at fixed time
It’s just poor sportmanship on players’ side, and poor problem solving on Blizzard side. Do we want Blizzard to be more responsible in such cases? Yes. Can we make them be so? No. We can simply stop playing…if we want to.
And I don’t know how unsportmanship is punished (if it is punished at all) in today’s sport. I stopped watching all of it. But I WOULD punish those players somehow.
How do you NOT punish people who were, for example, knowingly abusing DK weapon freeze bug in the middle of MT qualifications?
I really don’t want such players to compete for prestige of any kind. If you can’t win fair and square, you can’t win at all. You’re not a winner. You’re a loser and you’re going to have to live with that knowledge (and lack of true friends).
Having had an account before, if the settings indicate that it is “content for children” (for example), the video automatically becomes “private” while the broadcaster of the video has put it in “public” mode and does not know it.
Sometimes it is enough to have an account to be able to watch the video which is not actually “private”.
In all cases, the OP will have to change the settings of the video so that it is “public” even if we do not have an account.
Well, not this time, I do have it, but it’s still private
Ok, so I hope for OP, that it will change to public access (maybe a mistake or a default setting to change).
why would i admit to be wrong? youve proven me 0 data on youre own opinion which is “hacks dont exist in hearthstone” which i think is pretty hilarious. you just say “its not possible” so im gonna refute that by showing u the video, but u obviously havnt watched it.
the link should work now, have a good laugh at my whiny mood i was in, the start of the video is when my game froze up, after that its just me whining and showing u that my internet connection is fine and summarizing whats happening at 7:45
(yeah its embarresing how i acted when i recorded it but i was pretty furious about it at that point)
they fixed nellie bug years ago
same with priest galakrond
and magister hero power
dont know why you are claiming they dont fix bug causing disconnections
OP doesnt mention a specfic card or play
he just …seems to think someone hacked blizzard server causing a lot of players to randomly disconect …just to win a game agaisnt him…
watch the vid pls, its working now. after 2:00 its just me whining
Sounds dumb by Google. “Hide the kid stuff, show the horror”.

You’re playing CS GO and HS at the same time?
It’s a wonder you don’t get dc-s all the time
are u high right now?`im watching a stream (mostly listening) in the background i litterally have 1000/1000 connection.
Games have very low networking needs, like 2KBps up and 2KBps down in most cases.
It can CRASH the games because of GPU driver issues but not so much clog the tubes.
