Ricochet
Also called: ricochet anti-cheat
Ricochet is the anti-cheat used by BO7 and Warzone. It runs at kernel or driver level, so it reads firmware identifiers that a session based spoofer does not touch. That single fact decides what you need after a hardware ban.
If you are hardware banned on a Ricochet title, you need a permanent, firmware level spoofer rather than a session one. Arctic's Verse covers Ricochet. TRACE 2.0 does not. Neither one unbans your old account, and neither removes the ban record. A spoofer gives a clean account a clean machine to run on, and nothing more than that.

Why a session spoofer is not enough
TRACE 2.0 is a session spoofer. You run it once per session, after injecting your cheat rather than before. It spoofs drives, RAM, monitors, network adapters, GPU and motherboard identifiers. A seed system lets you keep the same fake identity across sessions, which matters because an anti-cheat that sees a new PC every day is more suspicious than one that sees the same PC every day. Nothing is written to firmware, so a reboot hands your real hardware back. TRACE 2.0 covers Easy Anti-Cheat and BattlEye titles. It does not cover Ricochet or Vanguard.
Verse is the option that covers Ricochet. It is a permanent spoofer that works below Windows. It rewrites SMBIOS, UEFI variables, the TPM identity, EFUSE MAC and more, so you spoof once and the identity survives every restart. Its SMBIOS fixer picks from over 1,250 real motherboard profiles, so the board you present is one that actually exists. ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte and ASRock are covered. Lenovo, Acer and Dell prebuilts currently are not.
Before and after you spoof
Turn off Memory Integrity under Core Isolation, and disable Windows Defender, before you run either spoofer. The setup guides walk through every toggle. After a Verse spoof, reboot fully rather than using sleep or fast startup, so the game reads the new firmware values. Verse sells in limited batches and is often out of stock, so use the restock alert on its product page.
Hardware is only half of it. A spoofer does not unban the old account and does not remove the ban record, so a clean machine still needs a clean account. Keep aim smoothing at 5 or higher, so the aim moves like a hand instead of snapping like a machine. Leave a visibility check on, because it stops the aimbot targeting enemies through walls and keeps killcams clean. ESP only, with no aim assistance at all, is the lowest risk setup there is. Level the account before you turn aim features on, since a brand new account posting pro level numbers draws far more attention than an aged one.
