VAC / VAC LIVE
VAC is CS2's primary anticheat.
VACNET / VAC LIVE is CS2's AI system to detect cheaters. Consider it an AI overwatch. It's not very smart, and most of the time it only issues bans for blatant rage cheating. It can however be more sensitive if you're playing on a newer/low trust factor account.
How to avoid VAC Live
One of the main checks for VAC Live is reaction time. To avoid getting VAC Live banned we recommend using triggerbot with a minimum delay of 75ms. Keep in mind that if you play with ESP your reaction time is going to be significantly lower than that of a legit player.
If you're concerned about this, we have features such as sonar, esp flash, sound esp & audible only esp in order to help minimize the risk.
Trust Factor
Trust factor is a system designed by Valve to prevent bad actors from meeting legitimate, good players. If you have a bad trust factor, it's common to be placed into lobbies with other cheaters.
To keep a good trust factor we recommend the following:
Try not to receive reports, for any reason.
Play on an a high tier account, with service medals, coins, etc.
Do not inject any other software than Distort.
Ban Types & Explanations
VAC Ban
This ban is caused by a cheat detection.
VAC LIVE / Irregular Gameplay
This ban occurs if your gameplay is flagged by VACNET as being too similar to that of known cheaters.
