It is absolutely still rampant. I could count at least 5 cheater encounters in the last 30 days (blatant cheaters, btw).

They try their best to isolate cheaters with a "trust factor" system but the reality is, unless you pay an external service with their own anti-cheat software (that's probably as bad as Valorant's) you will get a high amount of cheaters.

Given they have zero transparency on the trust factor system, I could have a lower factor than you (I definitely rage too much), so because of it I see them more often. But there's no way to know if I'm in the cheater bubble, or you're in the no-cheater bubble.

I agree that it could be more transparent. I haven't faced a single suspicious player in quite some time (and similar with my friends that I talked to about this since this came up). Sorry that your experience is worse. Player "toxicity" should not be involved in this since it might be used as a proxy.
