Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty Message Board  

Of all the fellow Starcraft 2 trainer users here, have there been any in recent months that still have yet to be banned? I am all for single player gameplay and would assume if any have yet to be detected, the single player users stand the best chance at retaining their accounts. I bought Starcraft 2 immediately after it was released in 2010, used the AMAZING trainers (from this site) provided in single player and was banned when the first big wave hit. Almost 1 year later now, I'm getting back into the game and just getting a feel for things before risking a third cd-key. I do understand that there is always a risk though with the use of a trainer, even in single player. I've read many of the postings about the SC2 trainer specifically in 2010 and in more recent times. Is there any other input you fellas have for me? I welcome your input!
In simple terms, will using the newer SC2 trainers in single player - offline mode with the Internet connection disabled warrant any 100% protection? I would like to retain those difficult rewards/achievements (all of us do) but it sounds like wiping my profile after use of the trainer off-line is the only guaranteed way of playing it safe. Your thoughts?

The risks will always be there. Product keys get blacklisted all the time even for the original Brood War and WarCraft 3 products.

Even on those older games? Dang, Blizzard really hates trainers.

Wait up til Diablo3... then Blizzard goes total AWOL.
RL Money in the AH thingy plus cheating = instant ban, you can be sure of that

Just don't risk it with these type of games

do they ban the WHOLE account? lol

Your entire battle.net account? No. They only revoke your StarCraft II license. Any other games you have (WoW, classic games, etc) will not be affected. Several users that have an active WoW account have reported that they receive suspensions instead of permabans (kind of a dirty blow to show favoritism to keep their income coming).

Oh. Revoking a license..so you have to buy it again...Im guessing, however, this hardly alters save data stored?
