Gabriel Jesus, Arsenal superstar Came out to tweet asking for justice through X after his Counter Strike 2 game account was banned for VAC or Valve Anti-Cheat.
For many people who don’t play Counter Strike, you might be wondering what VAC or Valve Anti-Cheat is? A search on Steam’s website reveals that VAC, or Valve Anti-Cheat, is a system designed to detect cheat programs installed on a user’s computer. If a user connects to the server with a computer that has a cheat program installed, the user will be banned from the system.
On Monday, January 22, Gabriel Jesus tweeted through his personal x account saying: “Hi @counterstrike. My account was unfairly VAC banned. Can you help me?”
However, lifting the VAC ban is not easy. Valve generally refuses to lift bans. unless there is clear evidence of error. And at this time, we still don’t know the reason why Jesus was banned?
It is expected that Gabriel Jesus’ ID may have a skin that is a rare item and has a high price. CS2’s skin trading market, CS.Money, has estimated the value of Jesus’ in-game skin. It costs more than 40,000 USD or around 1,400,000 baht. Currently, all skins will be lost unless the ban is lifted.
