The Widespread Cheating Problem in Counter-Strike 2
In the video, Verlisify explores various posts on Reddit and Twitter that expose and discuss the prevalence of cheating in Counter-Strike 2.

According to Verlisify, almost all top Pokemon players are cheaters, making it impossible for legitimate players to succeed. He criticizes the Pokemon company for not taking adequate action against cheaters, especially when one of the world champions, Wolf Glick, has been caught cheating multiple times.
Cheating Across Multiple Games
Verlisify emphasizes that cheating is not limited to Counter-Strike 2 and Pokemon. He mentions Riot’s recent announcement that 10% of games in League of Legends have cheaters or scripters. He also discusses the cheating problem in Call of Duty, where many players have quit due to the prevalence of cheaters. According to Verlisify, cheating has infected almost every game, leaving players with little enjoyment and discouraging fair competition.
The Toxicity of the Gaming Community

He criticizes the toxic behavior and defense of cheating by some fans and players. He also highlights the role of moderators in censoring discussions about cheating in games like Counter-Strike 2 and League of Legends.
The Need for Action
Verlisify concludes the video by expressing concern about the lack of punishment for cheaters and the worsening state of cheating in gaming. He highlights the need for game developers and tournament organizers to take decisive action against cheaters to ensure fair gameplay and preserve the integrity of competitive gaming.
