Banned for using APEX LEGENDS STAT TRACKER for Overwolf?

Well 2 days ago my account got banned without any email explaining why and for how long. The only thing I used in the prior days which I haven't used for months was the in-game overwolf overlay stat ...

@FlickspeedIn my oppinion that is considered cheating if it tells you your enemys kills before you fight them, if it was only your kills/damage and your teammates it would be fine but by enemies im assuming that means the whole lobby so cheating

’’getting an edge on your opponents to see who you are still up against’’

most stat trackers are trash though everytime Ive typed in my name on an app it either dosnt find my name or shows me stats from 6 months ago so unless its accurate it may not be cheating at the same time

    Well then the famous app facecheck for League of Legends can be called the biggest cheat of all, brcause it tells you much more about your opponents than simply their rank stats. The reason it is not considered a cheat is because it is an overwolf app not marketed as a cheat, but as an information tool which anyone can use. Same applies for this tracker I guess. You can gain advantage in Apex in many other ways by simply changing certain visual settings which allow you to identify and spot opponents on the field easier vs the default settings. Ill tell you one of them for example, turning off AA makes opponents more shiny and sharp. Many other ways to gain advantage exist such as using 144hz displays, better hardware headphones etc... So should we get banned for using them and gaining an advantage?

    @FaIIenAngeI777 I guess knowing who you're up against would give you a knowledge advantage but in terms of an actual advantage... I dunno. I mean, Overwolf doesn't tell you how your opponent plays, right? 'Cause that be a cheat advantage (imo). I just don't see how knowing who you're up against could actually help you, unless you look at the entire lobby and they're all sweats, then you'd know to play it slow and not rush in, but anywhere in between and you'll just have to guess, especially since you can't see their handle in game.

      You can kiss your account goodbye buddy. A buddy of mine got banned awhile back, same stuff. Template responses over and over again.

      Couldn't even tell him what caused the EAC to flag his account. He even had a few buddies that are great friends with EA. He even had a meeting

      with them to figure it out and they told his friend that they have no clue what caused it to flag, but since it did, they will ALWAYS side with their EAC system.

      I've actually seen a lot of people i know get banned for no reason at all, just EAC flaw that they won't admit to.

      Sorry man but if my buddy couldn't get it back with an insider trying to help him, i can almost guarantee you won't either.
