A lot of people missed the sarcasm. Delusion Flyers fans bitching about Michkov ice time riddle me this. In the last 13 games played he’s played 9 of them over 14 minutes. He’s got 1g-1a and minus 6 in those 9 games. In the other 4 games under 14 minutes he’s got 1g-3a and plus 3. In games he’s played over 16 minutes this season the team is 1-7. I watched from the ice last night. I think he’s got potential but there’s a lot of work to do and if you think handing someone ice is the solution you’re not paying attention. He’s more productive when fresher given his skating isn’t there. Needs work and conditioning. He’ll figure it out but stop bitching about ice time.
What they do is run 5 active Armory passes, farm stars and drops 24/7, then redeem marketable items and cash out by selling/trading the redeemed items.
After that, the accounts themselves get sold off usually in bulk lots on account markets. The vast majority of them end up being bought for cheating.
⚠️ℹ️ As you already know, Valve did a manual sweep on XP/ Red Medal boosters.
Same day, this China-side clip gets posted as a flex: a commercial account fleet manager (brand blurred), batch controls, 1300+ accounts on one dashboard still running 24/7, no flinch. And this is just one company. There are thousands like it.
One operator running 36+ CS2 instances simultaneously.
Douyin ads + plug-and-play hardware on Chinese marketplaces. They’re not hiding shit.
Last time Valve reportedly "hurt" this business was the ~May 2024 ~300K wipe. It’s only scaled since.
@Beserker64@vaccoin I think that is the main part of the problem. To detect cheating with VACnet it needs data. New account seemingly have no data so VACnet has to build a library.
@VACdeluxe Silver accts close cheating in green TF is staggering.
They really think they can hide it.
It's not that you can't defeat them, they are bad at CS.
The problem is that at this point it's NOT CS anymore.
Game becomes pure W and RNG with zero tactical stuff.
FUCKING BORING!
@Ghostlydolphins BLAME JOHN MACDONALD HEAD OF #cs2#counterstrike2 ANTI-CHEAT
HE THINKS "REGION" IS WHY EVERYONE CHEATS NOT HIS BROKEN ANTI-CHEAT VAC CODING
just remember, IVE BEEN ASKING VALVE TO FIX THE ANTICHEAT SINCE 2016
Podesta emails released on Wikileaks then suddenly Ecuador caves and gives up Julian
Julian may not have been the one signing the releases but his captors would have tried their hardest to get him to publish some sort of retraction anyway.
If the pizzagate emails really were what motivated London to capture him, then he was in the custody of an unimaginably evil organization. Londons track record hardly exonerates them.
@KingHaiX Any CS brand, pro or otherwise, that isn't themed around losing to cheaters, is cheating. The idea that people can be competing against software assisted players (who are everywhere) and still be winning is total horseshit.
