The #1 Apex Predator Who Was Cheating All Along 

Hilarious that They made him only allowed to play firing range as to say get better and earn it

Former #1 predator sounds illegal out of context

"chat don't clip that" always kills me lmao

Ironically ottr has my favorite "i swear im not cheating" moment as well as my favorite "i just got banned" reaction

the bin clip was just insane

To know someone cheated to get to pred, then unban him, see zero difference in play style and think "hes not cheating this time..." is wild to me..

In titan fall 2 cheaters were all put into the same lobbies instead of being banned. Kinda like a soft ban. I wish they did this again

Soooo many of these guys are cheating. Ottr just can't stop exposing them.

I don't think gaming companies truly understand how hurtful to their business it is to not hunt down and ban cheaters instantly. You can play just a couple random games and will experience it, people just instantly gunning you down as you come around a corner crouching... it just instantly kills the game for anyone playing legit. And the fact it's still happening after so many years, come on man....Can't be that hard to find some people to admin the game 24/7 and take immediate action. It's not a small game with upcoming game studios...

It will never be understandable to me how you can believe yourself to be good when you're cheating. I can't imagine the personality type it takes to lie to everyone including yourself and still feel any sort of pride. These people are just sad empty shells of human beings.

6:23. That's wild. there's no reformation for cheaters, let's be real. Certain things can welcome players back like toxicity or even boosting, but cheating; especially competitively is a one strike offense, I feel like.

Water got caught 😂

If you see someone with a pred badge it’s a 50-50 chance they do not deserve it

Sad part is that this is just 1 known example, there a hundreds of Facilitaturs always cheating but since they dont stream and dont get into constant back and forth they keep ruining the game

fantastic video. I know it took a while to make, but the effort and quality this synopsis has is absolutely perfect. thanks for the entertaining recap!

Hearing everyone talk about apex legends makes me happy. That game is hard as hell for some reason and now I understand. Hackers and cheaters everywhere.

The supply bin clip is the most obvious act of wall hacking ever. He 100% knew that guy was sitting in the bin.

He is just at the top. People dont realize just how many people cheat. Cheating is a very big business. Coming to this outcome has made me desire to quit all multiplayer pvp games.

I will never understand the point of cheating.

I knew I got killed by a f*cking 6 stacks. I thought I was going crazy. Between that and people shooting through corners or curving bullets, I just havent touched ranked.

11:53 when he says smash like button the actual like button glows

The Fact Thatt It Took A Loba And A Revenant To Expose Facilitator Is Just Wholesome ‼️

For every one we catch, there are thousands still among us.

The #1 sign that a ton of preds are cheating should be - How they're so great playing the game at home, however, they either don't compete in LAN or perform horribly when they try to. A lot of the pros nowadays even sit at Masters because of cheaters. Hoping to see Apex address this in some way or manner

Need a soda was never banned. Not for a bit. He hit season 17 number 1 and he did a lot of teamming, and playing with DDOSers, literal 12 manning, it was insane. And I literally still get in his games i played with him solo q

Took last 4 years from Apex. Started back couple weeks ago. The amount of modded controllers and what not on Apex right now is wild..

"uh uh, chat don't clip that"💀

The pred badge is by far the best looking badge in all of gaming in my opinion

So glad they are slow on banning blatant cheaters but not on pushing out reskins for 20-160 bucks. Glad they are slow on this so they can make a better MM system... oh wait...

Man, I really miss your Apex content, this is the stuff I enjoy watching, so sad to see so many Finals, and no more Apex.

The worst part of it all imo : when someone starts shooting thru smoke (yeah they might have digi) or prefiring RIGHT before we poke out of cover.. (yeah maybe they saw ur forehead and u can't tell) whenever we run into someone who is "just too good" it's almost a 50/50 toss up of "this guy is probably just walling. because if someone could get no.1 with walls- only to be found out through clips and spectators calling him out ,what're the odds the average nobody who uses walls even gets caught?". It's such a bad look for EA/Respawn and especially Easy Anticheat 💀

I stopped playing apex after season 16 but I still watch these types of videos I love them

I can't imagine the feeling of being the number 1 pred knowing you're cheating and just eating up all the attention. Fkn sociopath.

Hiswattsons post saying thanks respawn for protecting cheaters has aged like fine wine

There's only two ways of dealing with cheaters. I'm a teacher myself, and have learned that there's 2 ways to keep the kids from misbehaving. One is to warn every single misbehaving kid, until they know your perception is good enough to catch whatever they're doing. The other is to punish one kid, so the others know you mean it. If you do neither, things get out of hand, and you'll no longer be able to teach because too many kids keep misbehaving. You need to stay ahead of that problem. If your perception is not good enough to be right on top of every misbehaving student, you have to punish one student whenever you do catch them. Same thing goes with cheating. If you can't detect propperly, you have to harshly punish whenever someone does get caught. Otherwise the risk doesn't outweight the "reward". If the only punishment is to stand in the hallway for 2 minutes, that's not going to do anything. The student is actually going to enjoy the little break and do the same thing when he comes back knowing your punishments are soft.

im waiting for a top predator to be a predator in real life

Can't wait for the Cfg users to also get banned like they should be and hear them cry

I made two friends and started teaming up with them. They were very good and so I started winning more. As I asked for tips to do better, they told me about how they get auto aim on Keyboard and mouse to which I tried. I instantly became 2x better and so we continued playing for sometime. One got banned and came back as another tag but after I realized they got banned for that trick, I disassociated myself from them because they never disclosed that it was considered cheating even though they knew I was trying to get good legit. So I agree with banning people who play with cheaters, its your choice to stay with them.

No way we're making a Facilitator video in 2023

"Who opens a bin like this?" Uh... I do? Is that bad?

I remember once they tested this anti cheat the whole dam day I killed everyone I encountered 😅 never happened again

They have a badge for cheaters, and I laugh when someone displays it openly like its a legit badge.

This is just a record of respawn refusing to do shit until it literally has no other choice. Classic.😅

These people cheating to get into #1 of a videogame is pathetic lol

Thought I was watching a Netflix documentary with all these insane editd

I wouldn't doubt it a lot of people with crazy ass kill numbers are cheating or farming kills

That's an extremely good perspective for cheating online, "Stolen Valor". That's genius.

The issue with cheaters in apex is that these same people are also cheaters in life they can't be trusted by family or friends, never let a cheaters walk behind you, these are the same people who get their car repossessed and than blame everyone else because it got taken away. So just remember if your freinds with a cheater then your a cheater too.

Respawn: cheating will not be tolerated *tolerates him 3 times* Then when actual members in the community get banned for ‘cheating’ when hackers login and cheat on their stolen account because of origins’ shitty default security settings respawn doesn’t even give the benefit of the doubt. Never even acknowledged it as an issue when I remember it being a prevalent issue and they had access to data showing the login locations being suspicious.

nah ottr needs to hit 1 mil this editing top mark💯

Hey that guy in the bin at 8:40 is actually my friend woods, he hit #22 pred that season, thats awesome haha

Editors killed this one, great job lads

the clips of him playing make me realize im better skilled than he is. and im gold lol

What a shock that the guy who was cheating to get high ranks and then was playing with cheater actually turned out to be a cheater... who would ever have imagined such a thing?

Apex needs an after match summary that has a full list of recent players so you can report for cheating and they need a theater mode so you can send in video clips or at least watch and see if they are for sure cheating or not.

Security in this game is a joke.

"end of an era" bro is a battle royale lmao

Pretty insane how many cheaters there are as far as kill grinders go. I swear at least half of the 20k+ kill players I ever have in my lobbies that I've looked up have had endless hours of 30-50+ kill games over and over and over

His wings got burnt off

my big brain idea, we shut down the internet so cheaters cant spread!! whos with me?!?!

I feel like I've seen this exact headline at least 3 times already.

Personally I think if you catch someone cheating definitively at a point they are getting paid to do so I think it would be fair to argue the money they got was theft since they didn't infact provide the service they were bein paid for. And they should be held accountable and have to pay the money back. That would put a stop to cheating.

8:03 - This seems like something I would do. I don't play Apex, but normally, if you didn't see someone straight ahead, wouldn't you just turn the corner? Also, the door is see-through too. It's possible he had the volume turned up high and heard footsteps because they were running.

This honestly brings back nostalgia for me. I remember back on Xbox in those early seasons trying to grind ranked and matching with all the names mentioned in the beginning of this video pretty much every game though I was Diamond lol. Now it all makes sense. God damn cheaters, and I thought I was just garbo for not being able to 1 clip on 99 percent of my kills like they did lol

"The number 1 predator"

As a gamer of over 25 years in the FPS community and a game developer for over 10 years... i now see that cheating is the #1 threat to online competitive FPS games. I'm pretty sure its destructive power is far more than anyone realizes. I'm definitely not going to spend money on an entertainment product for people to cheat at and somehow make money doing it. Count me out of that system. I'm of the opinion that most players are actually cheating in the high competitive levels. And just the fact that I have no confidence in their ability to actually combat this issue is why I'm basically no longer spending money on online competitive FPS games. I also think that game streaming was a huge mistake. Twitch is an absolute disaster for gamers, games, and is being turned into a softcore porn platform by women. I don't mind the long form youtube breakdowns and reviews, but the streaming gameplay is something you should only watch if you have a specific objective in mind... like "how do I get past this certain point I've been stuck at too long" Otherwise watching streams is like watching someone else watch a movie. It is so destructive to games and gamers, it ruins enjoyment and turns gamers into "followers" who's identity is found in someone else. Streamers know it isn't good for them or their audience. It is also the reason for cheating to be a financial gain as well. It is basically cult like behavior.

I’m not gonna lie him shooting at Loba looks like someone who actually has a headset and sound hording

I’m convinced a majority of these preds are cheaters using cronos or strike packs and macros it’s annoying and an anti cheat system needs to be put in place the fact it hasn’t for 18 seasons is a poor excuse

Not going to lie...missed a huge opportunity in the beginning not saying "flew too close to the sun and got burnt"

Cheaters are 100% lame, but i never understood the argument of "stealing the #1 spot steals views and money from others." If you're an entertaining streamer who transforms their content, I will watch. I do not care what spot in the leaderboard Faide is, as long as he turns on the voice changer and calls me a "good boii", I'm giving him a sub.

Him opening the door and shooting the wall could just be because he heard him walking and thought he was inside. I've never hacked and I've done that before

classic controller player behavior

anyone else got distracted by the fact that the like button lights up when ottr says like button...not sure if its every time but it happened between 11:50 and 11:53

TRUE FACTS FOR SEASON 3-6 RIGHT HERE FROM ONE OF FACILITATURS OLD TEAMMATES: Hi, I was FeaRz Ru in the video shown at 2:00. I have actual insider information about the truth of what happened in these seasons, as I was one of the main third that dusty shmeat (drip capalot), need a soda, and facilitatur played with. Never heard of anyone named "kauzey", and I will tell you right off the bat, that some of this stuff is inaccurate as far as the beginning of your story goes. As the 3rd in season 4, when top 500 was released, I solo climbed to the top of apex predator. I needed a team, a good one. That's when I met drip capalot (shmeat) and facilitatur. As they were #3, 4, I was #6. Anyway inaccuracies in the beginning of the videos are as follows: 1. No, we were not cheating at the start of our meeting, no one cheated in seasons 4-5-6. 2. We played all night, switching between me and our friend Markley every night to help achieve Facilitaturs #1 status in season 5 (no teaming, cheating , walls, etc, at the time I was an account booster, getting paid daily to bring accounts from diamond to master within one session) 3. Season 6 is when the teaming stuff happened. And it was not during the whole season. It was the last 2 days of the split. basically, we had been going back and forth with xynoas team and were neck and neck with them and dusty shmeat at the time was holding onto the #1 apex predator. No one was using hacks or cheats in these games. We were back to back winning 165s basically every game, even nights going on 10 win streaks because we were all simply that talented and had the chemistry. 4. On the 2nd to last day of the split while we are up 1500 ranked points and evidently going to secure the lead, a user and follower who frequently watched Xynoa and SkittleCakes streams called "HAWAIIAN PUNCH" was known to boot people offline if they mad him upset in ranked (he was a pred and would often hit servers offline to achieve this status as well.) 5. This kid was their friend and vowed to them that he would help them get #1 just in time. What a coincidence, me and Dusty Shmeat are both held offline for the entirety of the 2nd to last day of the split. 6. By the time we log back on, our ranked lead was dimished by over 2,000 (They did an all-nighter the same night that we got hit offline and continued playing throughout the day, so they basically got their friend to boot us offline so they could steal the lead on the last day of the split.) 7. Knowing that they would play the entire day and maintain their 2,000 ranked point lead, we had two options. Option 1: Stream snipe their team and shut them down with wins to try and get the lead back. This was working well and we started to catch up little by little everytime we'd kill them and win a game. However, they caught on and shut down their stream. 8. We had to make a choice. None of the players in those videos ever cheated or teamed with anyone before this, but we had a decision to make. Let them keep their completely false #1 pred for that season, or do ANYTHING to get Shmeat back his rightfully deserved #1 rank. 9. We hit up multiple top 50-100 preds (our 3 man, plus 6 others) to destroy lobbies as fast as possible and try to catch up to the lead. 10. Xynoa and Skittlecakes notice this, and react back in the same way, hitting up 6 of their friends as well to counter the teaming! 11. So now there are top 100 preds in apex in ranked lobbies going throughout the day having 9v9 battles in end zone with every type of legend to be able to fight and wipe as a 9 man (comms were INSANE) 12. As they 9 manned us back, there was no real way for us to catch back up to Shmeat's rightfully deserved #1 status that season. 13. We never teamed any other day or night for all of those split days from season 3-6, it was literally one night and we never did it again. We had a reason to do it. We weren't about to let 45+ days of constant grinding and sleepless nights go to waste, so we did what we could. 14. All of the accounts associated with the cheating did actually get banned for 2 months. That was the penalty we recieved. Anyway, we couldn't catch up, they untruthfully took the #1 pred rank that season, and the whole thing blew up. It was probably the funnest day and night I've ever had on Apex to be honest. So much grinding and sweat and sleepless nights went into maintaining Shmeats #1 rank, just for skittles team to unrightfully steal it from us. I'm not upset anymore about it, and looking back, it was probably one of the best nights I've ever had in gaming history. Anyway, haven't finished the video yet, but I just wanted to straighten some things up as far as seasons 3-6 go for the people who care, or want to read the true story of what happened because every video I've seen talking about this never gets it 100% correct, which is actually quite amazing. Take it from somone who was there. Btw, I never carried over to PC, so not 100% sure of the events that occurred there so I won't speak on it. if u read this just know this is the 100% truth of what happened.

I guess this is one way to celebrate my birthday having the #1 Apex Predator Hacker getting banned

Enabler culture is L

These cheaters need to start getting real world punishments.

Wild how skittlecakes went on to go pro, even after ruining/manipulating the ranked grind experience for so long

@10:55 LOOOOOL GFY dude, "dont clip that"

I can not tell why people will go such far lengths just for a rank when I rather would showcase the best of my skills to deserve a higher rank.

they really played "When u go low i go lower"

he could easily hear that loba behind the wall

"One can can only guess as to why"

Occasionally i find a cheater myself. It is so obvious. A dude two tapped me with a wingman on drop, with both shots at max firing rate, only to then do the same to mt friends. You can be goodw but nobody is max firing rate 6 headshots in a row with a wingman good.

What I find pathetic is that even with everyone shouting "hacker hackers" nothing happens. So the other streamers and cheats who are obviously cheating will never get banned. When will AI fix all this?

The amount of ego I have seen from preds and most master level players is insane.

I currently play on console and honestly I’ve seen more and more people using strike packs and it’s insanely annoying . I wish there was a way to minimize that cuz honestly it made me step away form the game

I gotta admit Apex Predator being nicknamed “Predators” in this day and age is REALLY fucking unfortunate

Grinding same servers with both teams were hell back than console. Its wild seeing a vid so many years later LMAO

Crazy how obvious cheaters are most of the time but a lot of people still defend them

with how cheaters get overconfident - it's what I call the wings of the Icarus effect. When someone is doing something terrible, they boast about it then get destroyed - hence like the wings of Icarus getting burned off.

I like that they allow cheaters back and give them chances but people who get banned for less serious things domt even get a second chance

Saying " Grinding to be the #1 Predator "is crazyy

As always, any circle has an inner circle.

your voice is so calming, i could listen all day!

The funny part about this is the community that always defends and say they are not cheating even though there can be loads of clips showing things that you just can't do normally. Not saying a lot of pro's cheat as most are really good at what they do, but not just in apex but other games, there are quite a few to me that quite often do things that are very sus, as usual though people will defend and defend until that streamer/pro really slips up. (to be honest though even if a streamer/pro "slips up" they still somehow find it in their soul to defend them)

This man said “day-buut”

I'm only gonna try [cheating] once! I'M NOT GONNA BE LIKE THAT GUY!

Your storytelling in this video is incredible

the way i rmb him being on the leaderboard back in 22
