FairFight

By GameBlocks · Server-side · In use since 2013

FairFight is a server-side statistical anti-cheat operated by GameBlocks. It does not install a client driver; instead it scores match telemetry against expected human performance distributions and escalates outliers to the publisher of the affected title. Enforcement is always issued by the publisher, never by GameBlocks directly.

Restriction tiers

  • Account suspension

    Time-limited or permanent on the publisher account.
