Still think they should introduce a rank above Global and have it set to a specific # of people (like 100 per region).

Just got my first rank after completing the grueling 10 match win thing: got GN1 which i'm quite happy about. I only have 75hrs of cs:go on my resume and 3/4 of that time has been within the last 2 weeks. I originally started competitive gaming with cod1/cod2 so i'm an FPSer at heart. Not sure what people generally rank into initially, but at least i'm not silver... until I get demoted haha.

watch the wall collide with my fist, mostly over problems that i know i should fix

This is really only in your head you know. Gotta abstract that for a little while

Even better, you'll feel good when you'll get back to your original rank, but in fact you'll be better than before :D

Kinda hard to know what it's worth right now with the rank shift, but as it's been globally shifting ranks downward, and when considering how it was before, it's actually quite good. Keep it up

Already down to SME :D That's what happens when you get placed with idiots and lose 16-1, 16-5, 16-7 back to back to back lol. Oh well

Have you thought that when you consistently get placed with idiots, you yourself might be one?

Just a thought.

No, I haven't thought of that. While I am bad at the game (bad recoil control, I don't know all the map rotations yet), i'm not an idiot. What I mean by that word, is that i've been placed with teammates that have TK'd me randomly while the bomb was down, completely trolled and weren't trying during the rounds, etc.

I have no problem with people who are equally bad at the game but give it a good faith effort, but guys who literally waste everyone's time in MM is so fucking stupid

Wow clever guy in the house. Your skill in the game has some to do with whether you get qued with idiots or not. But the game doesn't have idiocy built into the mm criteria afaik.

Lose a game? Here's your derank!

Win 9 of your last 10 where the majority of them are you going 1.3 KDA or higher? Nah, go sit on your thumbs.

I'm scared of the new system, Mommy.

edit: i ended up ranking up after winning 11 of 12. glorious gn4

I personally don't mind the pixels that show my rank, I play mostly dm on dust2 as this is most fun for me. I got demoted from mg2 to gn4 and I feel this is my current skill, if I play better I will rank up, not that I want this specifically but it will happen anyway/
And maybe some of my wins were with hackers and were totally undeserved, who knows?

I feel you. I went from gn4 to gn2 despite going 8-2-1 in WLD stats and top fragging on top of that.

Help!

Edit: My score is now 12-2-1 and still no rank up.

Haven't played that much, only wins and one or two losses as of now on 12 games, and I only went LE -> DMG for now. I'm a bit scared of playing I must admit

I like the new system, only wierd thing is there is still a huge gap, I had a funny stretch, De ranked, to DMG then Ranked back 2 games later, then deranked again after 3-4 games and now back to LE. Its super weird. Im getting team mates in my games claiming to be SMFC's that got triple deranked and stuff, Not sure about the efficacy of those claims but it does seem rather wonky. Especially when these sort of games that end up in rather stompy wins that arent that much fun and you dont really learn anything because you can just yolo around and shoot people in the face.+ Show Spoiler +
(aside from the winning part).

Might be down to the fact that I havent played any game after my smurf got his rank, but at the moment I rank up and derank with almost every win/loss, its hilarious :D. I literally ranked up/down 4 times in 6 games. Down, Up, Down, Up...

Soooo, my last match in june was a win and rank up to Eagle.
Play today, win 16-2, get assigned as Gold Nova Master ?!! Come on I expected a derank but 5 ranks while I fucking rolled over the enemy team ??

According to the chart I was in top 25%, and now in the top 50% ? Either ELO got funny and inflated, either I really need to play more matches to have it reflect mine..

The ranks also have shifted quite a bit further since when the chart was posted.
