Participating in Premier matches with over 20,000 ELO, dima_wallhacks's experience sheds light on the rampant cheating issue within the game.

The cheating epidemic in CS2 Premier mode has been a concern for both casual and professional players, including Major champion Robins "ropz" Kool, who has voiced frustrations over the prevalence of cheaters in the game. Additionally, the top-ranked players in CS2's Premier mode have not been immune to cheating scandals, with a former top European and fourth-ranked global player admitting to cheating to reach the pinnacle of the leaderboard.

In January, the developers behind Akros, the anti-cheat system used in Major qualifiers, announced that over 30 cheaters had been banned since the start of the qualifiers. However, the situation seems to have escalated, with the community declaring that cheating in Counter-Strike has become "completely out of control."

The ongoing battle against cheaters in CS2 underscores the need for more robust anti-cheat measures and community vigilance to preserve the game's competitive integrity and ensure a fair playing field for all participants.
