Who is the ALGS hacker Destroyer2009, and where have you seen him before?

If the name “Destroyer2009” sounded familiar when the ALGS hacks went viral, you’ve probably heard it before. Their antics in the pro league are not the first time they’ve targeted pro players. In fact, Destroyer2009’s recorded history in Apex Legends extends back to December 2023. 

While his methods still remain shrouded in mystery, Destroyer2009 began as a simple antagonizing cheater. Clips exist dating back to December 2023 showing an account called Destroyer2009 using an aimbot to farm kills in a ranked lobby. But people didn’t pay close attention to the account until February 2024, when it launched a bot campaign targeting players like ImperialHal and HisWattson.
