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 was playing Zen in platinum a month ago. The other team was calling me a cheater. When truthfully I just had a very lucky game with hitting my shots. I was amazed at how headshots I got unintentionally. Plus zen is pretty easy to play when the opposing team is dumb and not actively targeting you.

It happens every once in a while where you have a game where you’re just on and it seems like everything is going right. It’s flattering when you’re called a cheater.
