			However, this isn't just a position held by those new to the stream. Some long time viewers/Bradologists believe that it is in fact an act. Their reasons for believing so include, but are not limited to the following:

			===== There's simply no way he's this bad at Dota =====

			The raw number of games played and hours spent in Dota is a big flag to some that Bradley is in fact pretending. Research has shown that 10,000 hours are needed in a discipline to become an expert, yet Bradley has exceeded this number and remains - on the face of it, terrible at the game. Believers in the Bradley is an act theory sometimes point to this and suggest that Bradley has in fact mastered Dota to such a level that he is able to flawlessly pull off the worst plays in such a convincing manner that he's able to fool his audience into the erroneous belief that he is bad.

			===== He can't possibly believe that everyone he accuses is actually a hacker =====

			One of the things that Bradley is most well known for is his unerring ability to detect hackers. When he detects a hacker he never fails to call them out - loudly, leaving his audience in no doubt that the person accused is in fact a hacker. However, "Bradley is an act" believers doubt that is is possible for one man to encounter so many hackers and claim that he must be putting on an act to keep up appearances. They will point to clips where there are a very plausible explanations for what occurred that don't involve hacking in any way and hold them as proof that Bradley must be aware of this and instead me choosing to make it up for stream content.
