My very bad computer died in the middle of competitive matchmaking and now I have to deal with a 24 hour cooldown before going again.













Please kill me.
Nameless
I've had this game for 8 months, but I've hardly played it. I should probably get better at it.

...my god. I'm MG2, and I was just matched with a couple of GN2s and GN3s on my team. And the opposite team was all MG1s, so it wasn't like the teams were evenly matched.
My teammates were blind as a bat and ignored all of my callouts... they had no game sense whatsoever. It was so aggravating to play >:( I don't know what I did to deserve this...

You would never know how many LEs and LEMs have no game sense.

GN3/4 and MG1/2 aren't even far apart in terms of skill, usually.

At least 2 of my teammates that game were GN2s who had absolutely no idea of what they were doing... they'd frequently die because they had their backs turned from places I called out just seconds before, they'd buy really cheap guns every round, and none of them had mics (And don't get me started on their aim). It's been ages since I've played with people like that, even back when I was that rank I didn't play with people that were as clueless as they were.
Hopefully something like this won't happen again... especially since I've just got promoted and I think I might be able to keep climbing.

I'm now GN3 and i have to admit that GN1 & 2 are mostly retard

they got nice aiming skill, they can kill yeah ( when i can't aim or kill cuz 190+ ping everytime :( ) but they got absolutely no game sense or teamwork. they can't even hear obvious footsteps lel. when i said B clear after an entry frag bomb carrier went A and dead so yeah GN match = GG

anyways looking for GN / MG guys who is on SEA region to play with me. hf, no pressure as long as you're not playing on yourself. add me

and yeah, i have a spare AWP Asiimov FT, and i would be willing to give it to you for 2 years of supporter tag OR 18 keys

I haven't seen anyone else complain about tickrate since the last time I was queued with silvers.

(and there's always CEVO, FaceIt, and ESEA if it bothers you that much)
DeletedUser_3905941
And I've always thought tickrate only affected stuff in pre-orange box css like bhop success rate.
If it does then I'm equally as shit on tick 128 and 64.

What happens if there is someone with a higher rank in your party?
As in, one Gold Nova and four Silvers? Do you go against people with higher ranks?

Yes, you are playing vs silvers if you are gold nova. But, if you lose that game steam takes it like "you suck" and it can demote you from nova. (if you are last place or idk).

your party will be matched up against ppl with the highest rank on your party (most of case i know and based on my own experience)

I've tried this game. I don't like it though because the guns control like shit. I feel like they're that way just to add an artificial skill ceiling, and you have to spend hundreds of hours just to learn how to shoot properly so you can compete.

it's the same as osu, you have to spend hundreds of hours just to learn how to aim and click circle properly :P

Recoil control is the simplest thing to learn in this game.

Hi.
Is CS:GO's matchmaker random? I'm always getting matched with higher ranks in competitive even though I'm unranked. I don't really like getting carried by higher ranked cause I'm not going to improve by that.

When you're unranked the game tries to find your skill level and you are matched with pretty much everything, after your "placement games" you will be given a grade and you should be matched with people near your current grade
Navizel
Well, getting matched with high ranks make me and them lose. I don't want to ruin higher ranks. I also don't like how you need to get 10 wins. I guess I'm used to League and Dota's placement games.

It depends on your ping which translates to available players, and rank itself.

As far as I am concerned, here's how it works.


If there's not enough players for a certain map (let's say train for instance) and it reached an x amount of time, it will start to get less strict on its rank gap. Let's say you were Gold Nova Three, and there were Master Guardian 1s or 2s qeueing, you might get paired with them. As for regions where there are many players (mainly US and both Western EU or Eastern EU *ties into russia as well*), this will not happen as much.

You also have the power to change your acceptable ping from 50 to 300, so the lower the ping is the better, but may or may not have less players.





As you get to the bottom and top of the ladder (Silver - Silver Three, or LEM - Global Elite), that's really only the time where you don't know what rank you might go against unless you are qeued with a team of mixed ranks. There are times where I am on my DMG account and I get paired with MG2s to LEs, but for the most part, it's usually all DMGs and one or two outliars like an MGE or an LE. When I am on my LEM (and formerly Supreme), I wouldn't be surprised if it was a mix of LEM Supremes and Globals. Otherwise, the ranking is pretty much uniformed.



So to answer your question, no CSGO matchmaker is not random, it's just really less strict at the middle levels because the skill between is Gold Novas and Master Guardians are very close. That and there's many smurfs between GNM to DMG. Unranked ladders are different, it's very innacurate,but depending if you solo qeued or played with a team higher than MGE, you might be able to reach (LE-LEM???) in around 8 or perfect 10 wins.
