its gonna be my first time playing (not paying for prime, if I like it ill use faceit) anything to expect before I hop on?
I haven't faced clear cheaters in MM in like couple of years and overall like 10 times in spand of playing for like 1700 hours. So I don't really know why people keep complaining about that. Casual has this problem though.
edit: I feel like people just call anyone who is better than them cheaters tbh. In CSGO there's clear skill differences between players. Someone with better aim than rest of the server can single handedly carry games. Someone with lucky or smart positioning can feel like if they were using WH. The amount of comments like "cheater" and "VAC" I've gotten is pretty high even though I'm not even that good. Just point that you can feel the skill gap way easier than in game like Valorant IMO and it doesn't always mean the enemy is cheating.
