Just 2 days ago on prime I ran into a string of cheaters. At one point we had 2 on the enemy team and it caused someone on my team to go toggle. 3 cheaters in one match. On old accounts with everything.

I know he couldn't be an expert but the person on my team says he can he blatant every game and never get banned because we're on prime. I don't want to believe that but then he had a lot of items and didn't mind spinbotting at all.

From my understanding the CS:GO matchmaking basically ranks how likely of a cheater it thinks you are, and matches you with people of a similar ranking. If you're queuing with people that are bragging about blatantly cheating you're probably in the "likely cheater" group.

This is all really just anecdotes, but here's my counter anecdote. I play csgo on and off with friends. None of us have ever cheated in csgo (or any other competitive online game for that matter). I'd say we get about 1 obvious cheater every 50 games, with 2-3 less obvious "maybe they're using wallhacks" as well. This is significantly improved from 3-4 years ago where we got a cheater once every 4-5 games.

I didn't queue with the cheater. He was a random on my team who happened to turn the cheats on when we were losing to a cheater. He left the game and everything to launch them.

The rest of us aren't cheaters. We have old steam accounts with lots of games, items, and play time. We have prime. We still got put into that lobby. I'm not good enough to look like a cheater on my playing alone either.

Exactly! I get blamed for cheating and reported (trust me I don't) so I whenever I play matchmaking I'm also in the "likely cheater" group. That's why I play on third party server with their own anti cheat system.
