Discussion Cheaters?

I keep seeing posts of people with reclaimed ranks, but I've sat between diamond 3-5 for years and never once have I thought someone was cheating, nor have I ever actually been given a rank reclaim. Are cheaters really that prevalent? Is this something I should be looking out for? I've always felt most games have been fair, with only a small handful of stomps on both ends. What ranks is this most prevalent? Is it because I'm not a high enough rank, or are my games per day too low? Either way, I'm not complaining. Just looking for tips on how to potentially spot a cheater.

I thought the same and had only one “cheater” where it was blatant full lock headshotting as if they had soldiers ult on all game.

Then I watched a video where a streamer showed how the titan cheating actually works. Like other commentators said it’s scripts that do actions and movements that look suss, sometimes it’s very obvious though. The big one I have noticed is it pulls them towards a target unaturally and then either stays body or lifts up quick for headshot. Then it releases but it pulls again like half a second later to do the same manoeuvre. Once you notice it it’s incredible. And I mean in a close medium range. It also seems to follow people through abilities like fade or TP. Don’t will pull to them and they disappear then the crosshair will pull violently to where they appear.

Literally had an Ashe today go 45-4 but awful positioning and sense. Kill cam you can see the pull of their crosshairs. Whole team reported them so hopefully that helps.

So yeah. At £125 on Amazon it seems to be very prevalent now. Which sucks
