If it is an unauthorized version of Rivals with tweaks, it automatically awards the cheater a defeat even if he won the match. 


What if said cheating was an exploit? would that work? I saw an exploit occur before in a match (a month or two before) where a tick tank burrowed into a chem warrior. That exploit was unintentionally performed by my opponent even though I won. I don't know how the exploit works, but I bet its very hard, with most attempts causing the tick tank to burrow next to the unit.

Also, what about DDL injections or a virus that manipulates the connection of other players? Isn't the virus considered a cheat if one creates it to wreck havoc on your opponent's internet connection?

    I don’t know about any of that stuff but what I said as far as the servers checking for the right version of the game I heard from Battalia when he was here and EA Dance when he was here. 

    All that other stuff.... You got me.

    Is it considered cheating (as in would the game detect that) if I messed with the game's files and switched the unit names around along with their models. I've managed to find my way into the directory of C&C Rivals using blue-stacks before. I could for example shuffle all the models and rename them into one another. My guess is that units like the predator would look like a shatterer on my device and pit-bull is a grounded orca. They will still act like normal, its just their models switched. I could imagine a drone swarm get replaced with war-dogs, and the result would be hilarious. Seeing 5 war-dogs running in mid-air must be priceless.

    At this rate, its no longer cheating but modding! LOL !!!

    Is getting frequent low signals also considered cheating for the opponent? Imagine a match so laggy on one person that he stands no chance against his opponent. If the person isn't laggy but still can't order his units, then the opponent can be cheating via means of manipulating his enemy's actions.
