Cheating in CS 2 is completely out of control: The number of dishonest players in the RMR qualifiers has become known
Developers of the Akros anti-cheat system have disclosed the number of dishonest players who have received bans since the start of the open qualifiers for the PGL Major Copenhagen 2024 in CS 2. The restrictions have affected over 30 esports athletes.
Since the beginning of the tournament, we have permanently blocked more than 30 cheaters at all events where our protection system will be used. Almost all the software we discovered runs on the hardware level or kernel. We continue to issue bans using automated analysis and review cases as we receive them. Our experience during this tournament taught us one thing: cheating in CS 2 is completely out of control.
