Heroes of the Storm Map Hack Allegations

A thread on reddit offers replays and videos of gameplay from Heroes of the Storm that are being taken by many as proof that some sort of map hack cheat is available in Blizzard's MOBA to give unscrupulous players an advantage. This clip offers a few examples of someone playing Nova making several improbable skill shots, hitting players hidden in fog or through gates which would require knowing where the target was, which is hard to explain from what's shown. Many of the comments take it for granted that there are map hacks being used, as it is widely assumed that the game uses the same engine as StarCraft II, which over the years has had multiple rounds of bans and even a threatened lawsuit over hacking.
