Based on what do you feel it has become rampant? There are many people who feel that way because they haven't reached a level of expertise where they can understand why they are losing. I see this all the time in recaps where streamers die to me in game. They could clearly be seen or heard or inferred but to them its a total mystery and they report cheating.

I have run into cheaters but most games are fine, sometimes you even manage to kill a cheater, fun times.

All sports are like this. Welcome to Earth. Sorry.
