Shobek is renowned for his anime-style commentary during his WoW Classic streams. Over time, he has garnered significant popularity in the gaming community. With a sizable fan base of 72,000 subscribers on YouTube and 131,000 followers on Twitch, Shobek stood out as one of the most beloved participants during the OTK Network’s Mak’gora Tournament last year. However, recent times have seen the streamer embroiled in controversy regarding him being boosted by a flyhacker.
What Is A Flyhacker in WoW?
A flyhacker in WoW is a player who cheats using unauthorized means, such as third-party software or exploiting game glitches. By doing so, they gain the ability to fly or move through objects, giving them unfair advantages over others. For instance, quick traversal of the game world and reaching otherwise inaccessible areas. And to add, due to their elevated position in the air, flyhackers can damage opponents without taking damage themselves, making them almost invincible.
What’s the Difference between a WoW Flyhacker and a WoW Booster?
As stated above, a fly hacker uses unauthorized software to bend the game’s rules, gaining unfair advantages. By directly manipulating the game’s mechanics, they engage in actions widely regarded as cheating and exploiting the game.
Meanwhile, a professional WoW booster offers services to help players advance faster or acquire rare items, usually in exchange for payment. However, they use their own expertise to provide assistance. They don’t change the game’s mechanics or use cheats and exploits to gain advantages over others.

As the Mage flew upwards, Shobek swiftly adjusted the camera to the ground in an attempt to cover the flyhacker’s traces. Unfortunately, his viewers had already seen it all.
