Valve Ban Hammer on CS2

Drama

10 October 2024 22:53

The recent Armory update in CS2 has led to significant disruptions in casual matchmaking, as players sought to exploit the new XP system for quick rewards. In response, Valve has implemented a series of trade bans targeting those who participated in farming Armory Pass XP.

Content creators and regular players alike are facing consequences for their involvement in exploiting deathmatch and casual modes. Notable streamers such as ArrowCS, Aquaismissing, and Duwap have received one-year trade bans for their actions, as reported by Pricempire on X. The CS2 subreddit is filled with accounts from other players experiencing similar penalties.

The Armory Pass, introduced in the latest update, allows players to earn stars through gameplay and exchange them for cosmetic items like charms, stickers, sprays, cases, and weapon skins. However, players quickly discovered ways to manipulate the system, leading to chaotic matches where grenades were thrown to shorten rounds and maximize XP gains.
