Not only did ScriptKid fool thousands of Counter-Strike cheaters into downloading and becoming victim to his script, their most embarrassing moments have been made available to watch. By including a script that sent the replay footage of every cheater mishap directly to him, ScriptKid created a magnificent video, including the funniest trolling moments.

There are nine punishments inflicted on the would-be CS:GO cheaters, which are activated largely at random so cheaters can’t try and correct for them. They include: Burning Man, which throws grenades straight down and unbinds the movement controls for a few seconds; Butter Fingers, which drops the cheater’s weapon every time they try to shoot; and Blood Brothers, which automatically fires a weapon when the cheater’s aim is over an ally.
While Valve and others have tried to take action against cheaters, using software to detect and ban them (Valve Anti-Cheat in the case of CS:GO), they can still run rampant in many games. Gamers who recognize ScriptKid’s name may remember him from a previous video where he trolled PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) cheaters in a similar fashion. Causing them to be ejected from their cars once they were traveling over 85 km/h, to shoot their teammates when trying to revive them, and to be prevented from throwing cooked grenades.
Everyone loves to win, especially when playing against others, but cheating ruins the game for all players. Cheaters end up with no challenge, players using fair-means lose out and get frustrated, and ultimately developers and publishers lose, as fed up gamers stop playing games they would otherwise still be enjoying. It is a shame that some people still want to cheat, but with people like ScriptKid on the side of fair players, perhaps eventually they can be stopped.
Indeed, the glorious cherry on top of the cake, is that should Valve’s VAC system detect ScriptKid’s fake cheat mod, it will help bring the trolled cheaters to their notice, and towards the just punishment of a ban. Viewers of the latest video have suggested Call of Duty: Warzone, Team Fortress 2, and Dota 2, as the next games that need help to tackle the cheaters.
CS:GO is available now on Linux, Mac, and PC.
