Did He Cheat? The Unsolvable Mystery of CS:GO's Most Suspicious Player

Robin “flusha” Ronnquist, a three-time Major winner who, in addition to having one of the biggest brains in CS:GO, is one of the game’s most controversial figures. Not because of anything he’s said, but rather because of some dubious plays on the server...

The most obvious one however (LDLC vs fnatic on cache, flusha with AK as CT in connector, spamming the wall towards mid/boost with perfect aimbot-like hits on an off-angle in the middle of the spray) is the only one that actually convinced me.

And we all know your bullets in cs never just go to where your crosshair directly is, but rather all over your screen lmao.

[@FatManJackson]

Its not the spray that is suspicious here. Its the crosshair that flicks onto the other guy for one bullet and back again. I dont know if you can properly see it in this video when you slow it down, but in the original with full fps you can see his mouse moves from left to right like one would to adjust, BUT for one or two frames it goes to the left MID right swipe.

I agree. I had a similar situation on de_cbble back in the CSS days. I was T going A in a 3v5, spotted one in switcher and got jumped by someone from spot and one bullet I shot at that one killed the guy in switcher and didn't even notice.

He sprays like a mad man on a jumping guy, missing like 99% of the bullets, and then a second guy comes up right behind the first one and line up like two galaxies on collide course. And he hits them both. It should be referred to lucky shit nr 1 instead of cheat.

He is a good disciplined player, no doubt. I've played for over 20 years in CS and know all the fundamentals and optimal ways to play. I've reviewed my own demos to look for the same type of anomalies and there's always very very few coincidental swipe overs but never in a 'lock and briefly hold' fashion I see other people consistently do when they are using an aimkey for information. Lot of up and coming pros were more than likely cheating in 2015-2016 era via Team Ignite (SicK, recky, Yay, Paul Newman, etc) I remember when there were steam exploits where people were downloading workshop maps that had cheats inside of them, or embedding cheats or malware into profile pictures which was as recent as 2 years ago in 2021. Between mice and keyboards with memory chips that can embed cheats, steam exploits experienced exploiters are finding, it's not a stretch of the imagination that professional LAN players could get cheats on to a 'locked down' lan PC. Either way unless VAC has an overhaul and or something can detect anomalous no sensor data "mouse" movements in conjunction with key presses, this would be one way to detect if someone is using an aimkey for information or aimbotting. Somethings gotta give.

Developing a certain playstyle because of potato pc limitations is actually quite an underrated statement. And something I've actually seen happening in my own experience.

On that abysmall setup he managed to reach Diamond in ranked. Because of the limitations he developed this amazing game sense of thinking many steps ahead and taking account of everything that could give him an edge in the strategic aspect of the game. It's similar to the way handicapped people develop skills to be able to do things their disability wouldn't allow.

Everyone knew flusha cheated. He got banned in 2014 but was too important to keep banned so they let it go and called it a "mistake". It'd be less obvious if it was actually possible for normal players to have their bans reversed, but there's no appeal for VAC bans. flusha is the ONLY player in the history of Valve Anticheat to receive an unban, or even have his case heard, since '05 when VAC bans became permanent. Even other "mistaken" bans weren't undone, in point of fact, when there were over 10,000 false positives in 2017, none of them were unbanned because there is no appeal, no unban process. They literally didn't even have a process to unban him, they had to manually edit his backend profile. Valve knew flusha was cheating. They also knew he was a cash cow, bringing people in, showing off a new knife every week (which saw instant spikes in trades and market prices on the knives) and generally being good for business. Why would they care if he had a second monitor to glance at to get perfect wallbangs? Cheaters are only bad for Valve if they're ruining comp lobbies. flusha made that bag for Valve.

This is 100% true story. I didn't heard about this "story" that he played on a computer that frame drops and learned to predict stuff BUT from experience playing on low end computer all my life (sue me. I'm not rich or have money to buy recent computers. Right now, I have Athlon X4 PC which was made 2015 I think.), I can relate on those frame drops and IT DOES allows you to predict stuff. My game is League of Legends and I have this term called "Macro predictions" wherein there are times where I know where each players are to the point that I am 100% sure I can hit a skill shot in fog of war based on predicting movement patterns of my opponent. And yes, this, I think, stemmed from me playing on a computer with 15-25 FPS a few years now. I also predict skill shots because with that FPS, you cannot do the tip "put your mouse over your opponent and skill and it will hit." No. It doesn't work that way on a 15 fps machine. Same as him, I developed a strategy to predict "where and when a team fight will happen." I played as Yorick and split push. I did this strategy wherein I use those macro predictions and go the farthest on that "predicted" teamfights. AND IT WORKS. Not only it helped me gain better framerate (of course since my rig don't need to process more skill effects) but I also effectively learned WHEN TO PULL before my opponents even get there. So, yeah, I agree that playing in low end pc will allow you to practice those predictions.

[@fragiquerence]

Faith, it is even more suspicious that way. See, the clutch moment, you are 1v1, you aware of few angles where an opponent could show up and you then you hear a sound. If you played a lot of cs, ask yourself what would you do. I'am not a pro, but I found myself doing what most good players do: flick pre-fire a spot what was exposed to be right after I heard the sound. In cs go (like almost in every other shooting game) you often aiming at PLACES, not at enemies. You expect enemy's head to be at certain spot for you to aim at. The better player is, the faster and more precise he aims at that spots and faster gets a kills. In that situation you hear a scope, meaning enemy is going to peek you, so you flick pre-fire his most probable position, which could be ramp box or top part of ramp where he actually moved his crosshair after aim locking weird spots. Those things simply burn into your muscle memory, you don't aim at places where nothing could be. Your pre aim places where you have a possibility to catch enemy, angles, wallbangs etc. In that moment you are driven by all your useful experience, which brought you there. I hightly doubt that after a thousands played dust2 matches flusha ever killed somebody through ramp wall so that experience lasted and he subconsciously tried to do that again. Same was with cache clip. There are even in theory nothing to shoot at.

As somebody who hacked for a while and then went legit, I can testify that frequent wallhacking can actually give you seemingly superhuman game sense and reactions to certain things. This was another FPS(on private servers with constant admin oversight), but I only caught my first server ban soon after I stopped cheating, yes I got banned while playing completely legit after a long time of hacking and never getting caught. When I was cheating I knew how to hide it, I could even tell when other people were cheating and then put them into situations where they would have to act suspiciously or do something that would get them caught by admins watching. Cheat long enough and you can become insane at predicting player movement and positioning just like 0:46 too. His next level game sense, to me, points to at the very least a possible history of wallhacking I think the same thing happened with the Houston Astros, they cheated with stealing signs long enough that they actually got better at reading pitches once they stopped cheating.

It's weird how unsolvable it is. The cheat that "smn" admitted to using was a low FOV aimbot that, on "legit" settigs, only corrected his aim on specific bullets. He claimed that people only got suspicious of him because he'd used exaggerated settings. On one hand this makes flusha cheating seem more likely, because of how sophisticated software can be. But then on the other hand, why would such software ever even allow him to lock onto people so blatantly?

[@dominikborno4133]

Cause the cheat is not rendering the walls correctly and when you go near a player through walls it can stick to him, like if hes got the aimlock on a key or the trigger and he hovers over a player through a wall and it shoots or locks depending on what is being used

[@_bits_and_bytes]

So when designing and developing software, you aim to create something that has as few bugs and handles as many edge cases as possible and it is impossible to know if you have found every bug and handled every edge case. A bug that wasn't discovered during QA or an edge case the developer didn't identify and properly handle can easily cause a soft aimlock hack to be more blatant than intended.

Basically untraceable, and it's so private that something like VAC will never get it into its database and recognize it as a cheat.

All of the clips where he shoots through a wall, are when he moves mouse from right to left. And that's when you hit the keyboard. Every single one.

[@LostFart]

I don't see that

[@sirkiz1181]

@@Adr3nalin3CsGO Yes, and not a single one actually locks onto their head, it’s always at least a whole head of, meaning that would be the worst hack to ever exist

@@sirkiz1181 You don't have any clue of smoth aim, aimlock, aimassist, sprayassist boy. very naive to think if its not the head, it's not a hack. You can just type in a hack while crouch aim at chest, when you lock from ride side of the guy, i locks on his right arm. not even arm, but near it. YOu can adjust everything today. And there's a lot more to spectate for example mouse speed acceleration before and while use lock key. Dumbass hacks aim straight to your head yeah.

yep he hits his keyboard, shoots accidentally and than can easily move more left, where before, he hit his keyboard :D so i guess he hit his keyboard out of the table probably ahahaha. you guys believe every fairy tale
