Valve found a funny new way to punish cheaters in their upcoming game, 'Deadlock', as shared in their patch notes. They pushed a new update where, if their anticheat detects a cheater during a game session, players in that game can choose between banning the player or turning the cheater to a frog for the rest of the game, after which they will end up getting banned.

Here is a video of the point of view of the cheater after being turned into a frog:

It's always interesting to see when game companies find creative ways to annoy cheaters and pirates.
