CS2 TTT rules

Key Definitions

• KOS (Kill on Sight) - If someone is KOS they may be killed without repercussion. KOS may be called on anyone committing a traitorous act.
• RDM (Random Death Match) - Killing someone “randomly”; without meeting the proper criteria to kill someone.
• Prop Blocking - Using props to limit the movement of a player, the use of the map, or disrupt gameplay.
• Ghosting / MetaGaming - Sharing information to alive people while dead; any form of info sharing that gives an unfair advantage.
• Camping - Staying in the same area, typically hidden; delaying gameplay
• Grief - Intentionally sabotaging your teammates.
• T-Baiting (Traitor Baiting) - Acting in a way as an Innocent or Detective which may cause another player to believe you are a T.
• Proven - An official term to accurately declare someone’s role
• T-Tester (Traitor Tester) - Some maps have built-in testing machines to ID a person’s role called Traitor Testers.

  • See Traitorous Acts
• May command players to freeze for scanning. After 2 warnings that are 2 seconds apart, may put a KOS on said player if they do not comply.
  • Players must be within line of sight in order for all commands to be valid.
  • Warnings DO NOT reset once line of sight is broken
• Detectives can also command players to enter map-built T-Testers.
• A KOS may be called using the DNA scanner when a Detective scans:
  • 2 Innocent bodies who have the same killer
  • 1 Detective body

  • 1 Innocent body that has died within 5 seconds of scanning.

Traitor Rules

Traitorous Acts

• Shooting in the direction of other players, unless in self defense
  • Includes grenades
• Damaging / killing Innocents or Detectives. If you do not know the player's role, you must let them ID the body of who they killed.
• Blatantly not IDing unidentified bodies.
  • Players must give warnings to scan a body prior to KOS.
  • Warnings follow the same format as Detective warnings.
• Planting explosive devices.
• Claiming to be the Traitor / self identification
• Maneuvering a prop or map item to block, harm, or kill.
• Being inside or entering T-rooms or areas.
  • Opening a T-room or activating a T-Trap is NOT grounds for KOS.
  • Being seen holding a T weapon is NOT grounds for KOS.
  • Teleporting from a T-room to a known teleport location is grounds for KOS.
• Moving unidentified bodies.
• Causing harm or preventing aid to other players.

Proven Criteria

• Getting scanned by a taser
• Being the Last Innocent Alive and calling a KOS on the other player.
• Any map-based T-Tester declaring you as Innocent

MISC / FAQ

• Rely on hard evidence to KOS or kill someone; do not use common sense / logic.
• Scoreboard and body counting MAY be used to KOS the final Traitor, as Traitors cannot call the first KOS on alive Innos.
• Staff may slightly twist rules as long as it elevates the player experience.
• Staff have final command and control over this process and it may differ from staff to staff. Stay Flexible.
  • Ex. Allowing the Detective to declare a deputy with extended responsibilities.
• Buying the “ID” item in the shop is NOT proven criteria as a T can buy a FakeID as well.
• A player moving C4 around is not a Traitorous Act.
• Holding a T weapon is not grounds for KOS due to the ability for some T weapons to be dropped and picked up by other players.
• Traitor Baiting is KOSable after 2 warnings.
• Arguing with staff: Players have the right to explain their side of the story when accused of RDM or foul play. However, once a staff member has made the final decision on the matter, refrain from excess back and forth.
  • If you feel staff have made an error or are not following rules, making a ticket in the Discord is the proper way to handle the situation.
  • Clipping gameplay with ShadowPlay, Game Bar, or Steam overlay is encouraged and will help your argument.
