Well you'll derank soon if you are losing a lot.

Or you can just rush mid every round on every map with a knife? Guaranteed derank.

Yeah but that's a dick move. At least try to win and do good. A team would rather have someone who is at least trying then someone who just rushes mid to die.
Had a game with a dipshit who wanted to derank and just typed /kill in console every round. So dumb, they should make that a bannable offense if you do that 2-3 times in a row.

and 1w ban ...
playing badly is an art. I have it down.
you need great map awareness to always be looking the wrong way. Dont forget the save your weapon on the pistol round.
but the real pros walk accross the map, figure out where someone is ... then throw a really bad flash give your position away and push once they can see again. Its all i see now ive deranked.
The other is throw a smoke in front of your awper.
ohoh and when one guy left (you died first of course) tell him all the sounds he can hear perfectly well and mis call locations. HES DEFUSING (in reality hes not even on site)

Yeah, I don't try to play bad anyway. I'm just saying that if the guy wants to derank it's the quickest way...

Report for griefing. Will be put on overwatch and he might get a 30day ban.

Oh I reported, but I doubt anything will ever happen of it.

Just played an insanely irritating team where 2 of our guys didn't talk and bought whenever they pleased, one of them shot us with his pistol early in the round and generally screwed around. He also started votekicks when people made mistakes. We ended up losing 16-12 with maybe half our buy rounds with 3 or 5 guns.
Thankfully on the last round of the game this one kid "3hunnit" (the guy who shot at us) tried to kill me too early in the round and got himself a 7day timeout. Feel of justice.

So it seems like Valve has hinted at something similar to The International for CS:GO.
http://www.hltv.org/news/12803-valve-hints-at-ti-for-csgo
"I don’t know if it would be called The International, but the guys working on Counter-Strike made a lot of progress on supporting the professional community around that game," he told Prodota.ru
"We all work at the same company and share a lot of ideas, and given how successful this tournament [The International] has become I don’t see any reason why a lot of the same things couldn't be applied directly to Counter-Strike." - Erik Johnson

I think that's wildly over-optimistic if you listen to the interview (btw that interviewer sucked).

Thoughts on the new wallbanging? It's been around now, and they have changed some of the boxes in dust 2 and inferno as well. It still feels widely inconsistent especially with the invincible dust2 barrels and how you can't actually shoot through most boxes fully.
Basically most objects can be divided into three materials. Wood/cardboard/other weak materials can penetrate up to 1.1 metres. Medium density materials such as tiles and some walls can be penetrated up to 0.5 metres. Most walls can be penetrated up to 0.3 metres. These are approximate numbers for an AK.
Since you basically can't tell visually which ones are the hard and medium density objects/walls, it all feels awfully inconsistent. Since piercing through multiple objects reduces damage more than piercing through a single object of the same thickness, it can feel inconsistent. Metal panels of vehicles are oddly tough. You still can't wallbang through actual walls as opposed to thin metal sheeting. You can't shoot through the small wall between lower tunnel and catwalk either, when before you can. Most boxes are about 1.5 metres thick so you can't shoot through them if both of you are on opposite sides. Mostly, you can only shoot through boxes if you can see the enemy anyways, but the shot hit the box. And then there is the A site inferno box. Which thankfully, the upper part is no longer seethrough but unpenetrable. It is sill inconsistent though.
Also pistols seem to behave pretty much the same as an AK for damage and penetration. Like a glock penetrates 1 metre I think. Feels a bit odd that basically all guns behave the same except for the autosniper/sniper rifles.

It's one of those things where you kind of have to know which is annoying but if you play a lot you end up having an edge, you can play strategically around the oddball mechanics of the map... That's kind of the spirit of CS maybe. Weird things happen for various reasons, much of it makes no sense and so you have to figure it all out.

got garbage teams and then demoted for it
now I'm getting garbage teams and losing for it (and I'm about to get demoted again, probably only 1 or 2 losses)

Why the fuck do I still get a "win a competitive match on Mist" mission and not one of those "win 16 rounds" ones?

Promoted!
Silver Elite MASTER
We played in a 4 stack against serveral gold 2/3 a few days ago and we've played fairly well  One of our guys was AK Rank, but got demoted twice very quick. He hasn't carried us execpt one game, just for the record! 
The new metal doors on dust2 ... oh boy, why? I dislike them very stronk.

I'm curious to know why low ranks care about the door changes that much? Does it really change your game play any bit?

Such elitism. Disgusting.

As far as I know they are not the only ones. Removing wallbanging from rifles through these doors is not a particularly smart change, even if they were trying to fix the wallbanging with the awp.
