I already have crosshair with dot inside. I think i took adrens crosshair config. Apparently i need to put even more time.


You gotta understand that you may not be 100% at fault. Most valve mm servers are pretty terrible.

Is being promoted back to back something common in lower ranks? I started out in gold nova 2, lost a rank after a couple of games, spent a certain amount of time in 1 and my two last games brought me to 3. I was kinda shocked that I've gained 2 ranks so quickly but at the same time, I was happy since my last game was my best one to date K/D wise.

Yes this happened to me when I first started playing (February iirc) and a week ago.

I was stuck at silver 4 for 2-3 weeks straight and then I just started jumping up ranks hardcore, within 2 days I was at Nova 3. Then I went to nova 2, back to nova 3 for about a week, then was stuck at nova 2 for another 2-3 weeks and then jumped up ranks again, nova 3, nova 4, mg1 then to mg2 and now stuck at mg1. Expecting to be stuck at mg1 a long time .
When I think of something else, something will go here

Well maybe tomorrow Ill get supreme. Doesnt help when you have to play against summit and n0thing to get there.
That's right folks, I definitely heard an ethnic twang in that voice, so everyone put your guesses on the screen. It's everyone's favorite game, it's Guess the Minority!!!

Blade u can jump from mg1 to MGE with so few wins its funny. Its like mg1 is low plat/dia (idk what would be similar rank in sc2 ) and MGE is high plat/dia :D.
About the post below blades, since when is summit hard to play against?
Think about how much time u would need to get urself supreme on EU servers XD :=) ?

Yeah, I was stuck at 4 stars/ MG1 for quite a while. Then suddenly from 4 star to MG1 and after a couple of games to MG2 and a couple of more to MGE. It even felt like I was playing below my average performance and yet the ranks just kept climbing. Now it feels like I'm pretty steadily in MGE, sometimes top fragging, sometimes bottom scoring in MGE games.

I don't know what the logic behind the thing is, but MG1 and MG2 definitely seem really unstable ranks.

Loads of hackers (who were obviously up higher in ranks) we banned in recent vac waves. This has reduced the number of higher level players, and therefore the system automatically promotes people so that the actual distribution matches the expected distribution as closely as possible.

The Katowice sale also brought a lot of new players to the game. The rank pools probably got bigger and the most of the new folks were placed on some of the lower ranks, pushing the more experienced players up the ladder.

Probably, though it'll likely still require 25 consecutive wins as fucking always

Wow, haven't played in two weeks. First game I win on Inferno 16-10, rank up to 4 star. Next game we go down 12-3 as T on Nuke and we come back to win 16-14 and I go something terrible like 12-20 and I rank up to MG1, which I've never gotten close to (I usually stick around between 2 and 3 star). Now I'm scared to play because AKs have always scared me and now I am one XD. Good that they are banning hackers though.

Dunno how this tournament works. How come the first 2 groups have only 3 teams? Is there an open bracket to place teams into those groups? Or is it cuz the highest seed teams are in them?
