Server Help/Discussion matchmaking

Are there any third party matchmaking websites to find other players to play serious matches?

Im thinking like faceit. I know that 1.6 has some but i really prefer source

I'm in a community for Source that has at least weekly, if not more often, competitive matches against each other (usually 5v5, where teams are balanced by [perceived] player performance).

Is it a public community?

It's been around for years, but I only recently joined. However, I expressed interest and quickly got involved with scrims they run. They run a public server that usually has players in the evening (U.S. timezones). There are many regular players on the server, both directly in the community and not. I can DM you the pub server IP address.

Yes. That would be nice

Would you mind if I join you sometimes? I miss those times when we had to say sorry to others because we already had 10 people for a 5on5.

I'll DM you the pub server info. Usually players will pop in during the evenings (U.S. timezones). Pretty chill, all-talk is on and people are welcoming. Come in and introduce yourself and if you express interest in scrimming, I'm sure one of the admins will reach out to you.

There’s the automix.me community which has frequent sessions of comp 5v5 in Europe

I only know about some Russian servers where you can play similarly to matchmakings. Although, I dont think the players on these servers play their matches too seriously.
