I disagree that the olof boost is cheating, tbh. It doesn't use any external tools, wheres the cheat?
I suppose it comes down to the definition of "cheat"; as I recall, the consensus was that it was an unfair advantage because it made use of a one-way texture that allowed the CT's to see the T's, but not vice versa (let me know if I'm wrong on this, it's been a while). Granted, it's using stuff within the game, but is kind of not in keeping with the spirit of a pro match.
IIRC it's not using one-way texture, but a pixel boost. T's could see olof and they eventually figured it out in the match. I don't remember now, but it was a gray area in turnament rules, so they were allowed to use it theoretically. They also sit on that tactic for months.
