Today I've reported a player in Marvel Rivals for being a cheater (it was obvious to me, even autoaim through wall playing hawkeye). And I just got a confirmation message that the player is banned until 2125... basically a 100 year ban. :D Do report them. Report toxicity as well (I get ton of confirmation). But do not report because you are angry or maybe the other player played well. It's the first time I reported someone in Marvel Rivals for cheating.

I do my part.

The difference being consistency, imo. You look at high level CS players and their game sense will be occasionally so good that they'll look like they're aiming at people through walls. A cheater would probably track them through walls. A high level CS player would have a certain synergy between their aim, movement, and game sense - it all seems fairly consistent as far as skill level. A cheater will have really obvious gaps like God-tier aim with shitty movement, or something dumb like moving while also perfectly tracking heads, or just straight up making bad calls on where the enemies are because wallhacks typically don't tell you when an enemy is behind.
