Spotted by coach LMBT"},"content":{"rendered":"

Back in September 2020, the CS:GO<\/a> esports world was stunned when the Esports Integrity Commission (ESIC) banned 37 coaches<\/a> in a landmark investigation. This was due to using the coaching bug, also known as the spectator bug in CS:GO. Among these banned coaches was Sergey “LMBT⁠” Bezhanov, who got his ban (7.5 months) lifted by ESIC after he provided evidence in his defence. Now, LMBT has spotted the infamous bug, leading to fans asking if the CS:GO coaching bug is back.<\/p>\n

Is the CS:GO coaching bug back?<\/h2>\n

Let’s just rip off the bandaid right now. It appears the CS:GO coaching\/spectator bug is indeed back, even though fans and players believed it was snuffed out by Valve.<\/p>\n

On Twitter<\/a>, LMBT stated: “How the f$%k it’s still there? Wasn’t in a coach sport for a while but now I see this?!!!!” tagging the official CS:GO account and saying “I thought it was fixed…”.<\/p>\n

The bug allows coaches, or anyone observing a match really, to move anywhere around a map using the free camera, if they get the bug, that is.<\/p>\n

On Twitter, LMBT shared a clip of the infamous CS:GO coaching\/spectator bug with the latest game update installed.<\/p>\n

The clip below shows a well-known angle of exploitation on Mirage (top of mid), exactly like the one some coaches used to feed their team information about the enemy.<\/p>\n

With RMR events for Stockholm Major<\/a> currently going on, this is a massive deal and we do hope no coaches use this CS:GO spectator bug, leaving the game as soon as they know they have it.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Valve has not responded to the CS:GO coaching bug being spotted but it does appear to be back in action.<\/p>\n
