ESL Bans Keyboard Automation Features From LAN Events

A recent HLTV report confirms that ESL will not be allowing the use of keyboard automation features like Razer’s Snap Tap and Wooting’s SOCD at LAN events moving forward.

This means that players won’t be able to utilize the aforementioned features at the upcoming ESL Pro League Season 20, which is scheduled to kick off on September 3rd.

According to the report, these features will remain permitted in online tournaments for now, but fans can expect that stance to change once detection and enforcement become possible.

The confirmation from ESL follows Valve’s announcement on the matter. As per the CS2 developers, they will not allow any form of automation (via scripts and hardware) that gives players an unfair advantage.

“Moving forward, players suspected of automating multiple player actions from a single game input may be kicked from their match,” the statement reads.

Additionally, Valve has also disabled “in-game binds that include more than one movement and/or attack actions” like null-binds and jump-throw binds.
