Manual Browser Spoofing

If you don't have a tool for spoofing browsers such as Kylin One Click or AYCD, you can utilize multiple chrome profiles on different proxies as a way to achieve the same end goal.

Creating Chrome Profiles

First, you will want to create a new Chrome profile for each browser you want to use.

To do this, start by clicking your Google profile in the top right.

The following menu will appear. Click the + Add button at the bottom.

Simply choose a name for it and icon and then click the Add button. You can create a desktop shortcut if you want to, but I prefer not to personally as you can access other Chrome profiles at any time.

Your new Chrome profile is now created.

Setting Proxies

Generally when using multiple browsers for a release, you will want to use separate proxies/IPs for each browser so the website doesn't flag you. A good tool for this is BP Proxy Switcher.arrow-up-right It is a Chrome extension that allows you to easily change your IP.

Click Add to Chrome to install the extension to your Chrome profile.

Once installed, click the BP Proxy Switcher icon now in your Chrome extension bar in the top right.

The following menu will appear.

Optionally, you can go into the settings tab and set your notification settings. They can get a bit spammy and noisy depending on how you're running them so be sure to adjust them if desired.

From the home page menu, select edit. I would recommend not to change the User Agent. Many stores look at your browser as part of their antibot system, so if it's outdated, you won't be able to successfully pass queues. It is preferred to use the most up to date version of Chrome by not changing the User Agent.

Paste your proxies into the field. If you want to just use one IP, then just paste one proxy into the field. If you want to rotate between a bunch of IPs, then paste as many as you want it to rotate through.

If you input just one proxy, then just select the proxy you pasted from the dropdown list shown below. If you inputted a bunch of proxies, then select the autorotate option.

If you just input one proxy, your proxy is now set and ready to go.

You can verify the IP is in fact set correct by doing a Google search for "What is my IP" or by clicking this link here to view your IParrow-up-right.

If you input multiple proxies and intend to use the rotate option, then you should set the timer for autorotate option for the desired duration. For example, if you wanted to do 120 seconds instead, then type in 120 seconds.

You also have the option to shuffle the proxy list so it rotates in a random order from the proxies you provided, and to start again from the first proxy once it has rotated through all proxies in the list you provided.

Click Start once done.

Your proxies will now rotate per the settings you chose.

You can verify the IP is in fact set correct by doing a Google search for "What is my IP" or by clicking this link here to view your IParrow-up-right.

Warning

When changing your proxy, it is highly recommended to do it on a Chrome profile that does not have a Google/Gmail account signed in already. If the IP of that account changes too much within a short period of time, Google can flag the account. It is highly recommended to make new Chrome profiles without a Google account signed in when utilizing this.

Also, when you are done with the browser, make sure you click stop rotation or disable the Chrome extension. The extension can sometimes continue to run in the background which will keep your proxies rotating until it is finished or you stop it. You can enable/disable the extension at any time by going into your Extension settings in Chrome. If you don't know how to access this, you can paste this command/link into your Chrome browser chrome://extensions/ and find BP Proxy Switcher from there, and then disable it.

Setting Up and Managing Multiple Browsers

In order to do this for multiple browsers, you will need to repeat the previous two steps of creating a new Chrome profile and installing the BP Proxy Switcher extension and input proxies to get a new IP.

You can view previously created Chrome profiles at any time by clicking your Google profile in the top right like you would when creating a Chrome profile. You can then select the Chrome profile you want to access.

To delete Chrome profiles created, click the gear symbol shown below.

Hover over the Chrome profile you wish to delete and then click the 3 dots in the top right of it.

Click Remove this person to delete the profile.

Preparing Browsers for Future Drops

Prior to the drop you are going for, make sure all your Chrome profiles and proxies you intend to use with them are set up. Open all the browsers/profiles you set up and have them ready to go for the drop. Make sure you are utilizing separate Chrome profiles and proxies for each browser. You don't want to associate two or more accounts to the same IP address.

Once a drop has been confirmed, you will want to change the link of the browsers so that they are on the link the queue/pack is dropping on. For example, if the link to get into queue for the pack was https://nbatopshot.com/listings/pack/4f144aac-1177-4e79-80a2-19190a6dff47arrow-up-right, then you will want to have each browser on that link.

Since this is entirely a manual method, you will need to manually paste the drop link into each browser you opened. Alternatively, you can manually navigate to the drop on each browser.

Managing Multiple Browser Windows/Tasks

If you are on Windows, you can press Windows Key + Tab at the same time to bring up a view to better see your open Chrome windows so you can see which ones have passed queue easier.
