Why does it take so long to find a game for 5v5 competitive defuse? The estimated wait time just goes up and up.

Asking myself the same question. Picked it up during the Steam sale which I imagine others did, too but it's taking 5min+ to find a game which then gets abandoned by 6 of the players within the first five rounds. Teams get filled up with Beginner bots which SUCKS. Not fun like this, random servers are seldom "competitive" (anti-cheat, 5v5 comp. no bots, actually more than 1 person playing).

Not sure. It's usually quite good but sometimes it is too strict with your MMR+team composition I think when there aren't that many players queued.

Apparently matchmaking is currently disabled and people are getting matched up with anybody which in theory should make queues instantaneous Oo

Any casts of other matches? All I found was a crappy cast from greatfrag with some commentator making stupid noises and being awful at commentating.

can i get a rundown on the matchmaking feature? so far solo queue works well enough for me, 2-3 minutes of waiting isn't bad considering you're looking for a serious match, and people stay the whole game and are cooperative. but i feel like if you select a specific map you basically aren't going to find a game, and i can't imagine how hard it must be to get a game going if you queue up with a premade.

also, is there even a rank system at work here? any kind of way the system checks the skill of the players or no?
