World of Tanks Ban Wave Tracker

Wargaming Anti-Cheat· Community ban reports

Getting banned in World of Tanks can mean different things depending on how Wargaming Anti-Cheat flagged your account. Some bans are temporary suspensions that expire after a set period. Others are permanent hardware bans — Wargaming Anti-Cheat monitors gameplay telemetry server-side and aggregates hardware-correlated reports across accounts, with no kernel driver but persistent fingerprinting through the launcher and game client, then blocks any machine matching those fingerprints from connecting.

We built this tracker to give World of Tanks players visibility into ban patterns. Rather than guessing whether you're dealing with a ban wave or a targeted ban, you can see real data from other players. Report your own experience below to contribute to the community's understanding of World of Tanks's current ban activity.

About these reports

The reports on this page are community submissions from World of Tanks players who were banned for any reason — anti-cheat detections, ban waves, false flags, account-sharing, cheat-software use, suspicious behaviour, payment disputes, and so on. They are not bans that occurred while running TraceX HWID Spoofer. TraceX rewrites hardware identifiers to bypass an HWID ban after the fact — the data here exists so players can see ban-wave patterns and decide what to do next.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a World of Tanks ban wave right now?+
Check the live ban report chart above. If you see a spike in reports over the last 24-48 hours, a ban wave is likely in progress. When reports stay below normal levels, it's more likely that individual bans are being issued rather than a coordinated sweep.
What should I do if I got banned in World of Tanks?+
Start by identifying what type of ban you received. Use the HWID Ban Checker below to diagnose whether it's an account ban, IP ban, or hardware ban. Account bans only affect one account. HWID bans flag your PC's hardware identifiers, meaning every new account you create on the same machine will also get banned.
How does Wargaming Anti-Cheat detect hardware bans in World of Tanks?+
Wargaming Anti-Cheat monitors gameplay telemetry server-side and aggregates hardware-correlated reports across accounts, with no kernel driver but persistent fingerprinting through the launcher and game client. It builds a unique profile of your machine and checks it against a database of banned hardware signatures. If your hardware profile matches, you're banned before you even get past the login screen.
How often does World of Tanks run ban waves?+
There's no fixed schedule — World of Tanks's ban waves depend on when Wargaming Anti-Cheat updates its detection methods. Sometimes waves happen weekly, other times there can be months of quiet followed by a large sweep. This tracker helps you spot the pattern.
Can I play World of Tanks again after a hardware ban?+
A hardware ban can only be bypassed by changing the identifiers that Wargaming Anti-Cheat flagged. This means either replacing physical components or using an HWID spoofer to rewrite the identifiers permanently — TraceX does this once, then you delete the binary and reinstall World of Tanks on a clean profile.
