Backtrack = Time Wizardry! It lets you hit shots on where players were a tad bit ago. Perfect for when you swear you hit that shot.

Backtracking in CS:GO refers to a feature that allows players to shoot enemies in a position they were in a few milliseconds ago. This is possible due to the way the game's server records player positions to compensate for network lag. It's like having a short window of time travel where your bullets can hit where someone used to be, making those 'how did that hit?!' moments a bit more understandable.

It's basically cheating. Legit players don't need to backtrack; they can hit their shots in real-time.
