There aren't any direct numbers, but it does seem that the amount of cheats has increased by a lot.
At least, the amount of users complaining about cheaters has been more compared to other seasons.
Though of course, with this season the ranked cap was lowered back down to level 20, so it's possible that there are more cheaters in ranked now.
This wouldn't mean that there are more cheaters in general, but as the amount is typically lower in ranked, it might make it feel like there are more cheaters, whilst the distribution of cheaters between modes might've just changed.
The security team doesn't publish any data on how many have been banned, and overall it's hard to really gauge the number of them.
But it wouldn't be unreasonable to say that the amount of cheaters has probably increased with this season.
