DMG.

The pain ive felt in the last 2 weeks, been really putting in the effort to improve / rank up. Which has mostly been aim practice since my aim is trash.

I reached MGE before my 2 friends and they ranked up to DMG before me, now they can STFU.

All within a month though, im a Vac wave profiteer.

You're just legit DMG, when DMG used to be the shithole in which everybody deserving higher ranks got thrown because of the hackers occupying slots above :D (I mean that in a good way, ranks right now are what they kinda were supposed to be before the hackfest that came with the rise in popularity of the game)

Ranked up to MG2 last night, feelsgoodman. I knew it was my promotion game, and was strat calling for my team.

It was a perfect storm, almost every single call I made went exactly right.

PR (T): "Go mid to arches, fake A, kill rotate in speedway, go B". - Happens exactly like that. 4 alive on round win

2nd Round: "Don't just rush out, they'll probably nade stack" *boomboomboomboom* "Ok, now just A"

4th Round: "Fake B, kill rotation in apts" - kill 2 in apts, easy win


It continued on like that, people were talking in mm1 about "holy shit, this guy's calls" and "what's your real rank". It was just one of those nights. I was shooting so well that during an eco, after we got a pick the guy took the rifle and ran it over to me to give it to me. Felt amazing.

I realy like pistol rounds (GN1) It was like an awakening one day. Everyone just bumrushed each other and goes crazy AD-AD and crouchspaming. I figured if I stay back, find at least one direction I can't be attacked from and just a step and aim for the heads it should go well. I slowly started applying the same mentality for buy rounds and have consistently top or second top fragged for the last 10 matches now.
After some reading, turns out I naively discovered the rudimental basics to holding angles and positioning. It's like when in secondary you'd go about the hard way solving a math problem without knowing there is an existing formula everyone else has been using for the past hundred years :D.

Congratz d_runk! I just ranked up to double AK (MGE) today, only one rank-up away from my first big goal in CSGO, to reach DMG.

EDIT: Here's a video of me doing well in a game before the rank-up:

Finally crawled out of the Silver trench on my smurf and got to Gold Nova. Guess it's kinda shit lol. I mean I've posted here a lot getting paired against smurfs lots of times. I have a lot of hours on CS:GO compared to most people and I have practiced a lot. I do only solo queue though, never played with anyone else just pure solo queue so it's heads of tails if I get a good team that communicates or complete shit. For reference I picked up CS:GO more seriously since April of last year.

Oh well, least Silver is gone for now.

Duo queued with a friend yesterday, didn't go too well.

First time touching the game in almost a year, and probably friends first time in several months.
before quitting I was supreme (not sure how I never got GE promo, had a ridiculous win streak [one of the reasons I quit]), he was probably eagle1/2.

apparently there is pretty much NO mmr decay or reset.. the game was psuedo-competitive (16-9) but end of game enemy team was all eagle 2's with one eagle1 and one supreme.


I played pretty bad towards the end but still made some nice shots and had a couple clutches in the beginning.
Not really sure how your mmr can be kept when you haven't logged on in almost a year.
I may appear to be an emotionless sarcastic pos, but just like an onion when you pull off more and more layers you find the exact same thing everytime and you start crying

I have been stuck in LEM for a while now, and can't get over the hump.

Decide to get a smurf to ease my suffering, playing against kids who are worse than me.

Place the smurf into LEM.
Fuck.

Damn, got MG2 a few weeks ago, did derank, and now it feels like an eternity to actually rerank up
(And I've been mostly winning recently v_v).
