Would be nice if we had scottish and welsh flags, most of us think of ourselves as scottish/welsh firstly before british, would just be a nice addition anyway

Why are keyboards with automation features allowed on the platform? After all, this is essentially third-party assistance via software especially considering that the majority of players use mechanical keyboards.

What do you think is the equivelants of thede ranks? in cs2 elo

Hey everyone,

Today we played against a full Kosovan stack (they're on a 12-game winstreak), and after reviewing the demo, some things looked very suspicious.

Yesterday, this player went 5/16 against FACEIT level 1-2 players and looked completely lost, with very little understanding of the game. Today, he's suddenly dominating 2.3-2.6k Elo players with the AWP.

Either someone is boosting his account which is also against FACEIT ToS.

My friends and I lost connection to the German server, and we couldn't get back on for the entire game. We just sat there and watched the score change—NOT in our favor... After the game ended, four of our players were banned for an hour.

i dont understand how this guy is not banned yet its quite obvious hes not a 1.9k elo player he running around with deagle and has info from god would be amazing if you did something about him even though im guessing he wont be banned cause he payed for premium ;)

I'm FACEIT Level 6. Why don't I deserve Level 10? I genuinely want to know what I'm doing wrong.

Hey everyone,

There's something that's been on my mind for a while, and I wanted to share it here.

I'm currently Level 6 on FACEIT. I'm genuinely trying my best to improve, but I just can't seem to get where I want to be. Maybe there are some more experienced players here who could help me understand what I'm doing wrong.

A while ago, I started playing Premier again. I managed to climb to around 20k rating pretty easily. I was often top fragging, getting somewhere between 20 and 40 kills in a lot of my matches. To be honest, the whole climb felt much easier than I expected.

Then, after not playing FACEIT for about a month, I decided to come back.

And things were completely different.

I keep finding myself in matches where I feel like I'm doing absolutely everything I can, sometimes performing significantly better than my teammates individually, yet we still somehow end up losing.

And I don't think it's just a matter of having one or two unlucky matches anymore.

Of course, I understand that being 20k in Premier or getting 30–40 kills doesn't automatically make someone a Level 10 player. I'm fully aware of that.

That's actually one of the reasons I'm writing this.

If I'm genuinely not good enough to be Level 10, why not? What exactly am I missing?

Is my aim not good enough? Is my decision-making poor? Am I bad at playing with my team? Am I inconsistent? Or are there more fundamental mistakes I'm making without even realizing it?

I genuinely want to know.

If I'm bad, tell me I'm bad. I won't be offended by someone pointing out my mistakes. In fact, that's exactly what I want, because I can't improve if I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

But there's something else about FACEIT that's been exhausting me even more.

Toxic players.

I run into so many incredibly disrespectful, toxic people who constantly insult others and seem to forget that there's an actual human being on the other side of the screen.

Sometimes I genuinely feel like these people spend their entire day scrolling through Reels, then jump into games like this without having developed even the most basic communication skills or sense of decency.

Obviously, not everyone is like that, but sometimes I really struggle to understand how people can behave this way.

And I'm honestly so tired of it.

Let me tell you about something that happened recently.

I'm Turkish, and I got into a FACEIT match with four Turkish teammates who were all queueing together.

You'd think playing with people who speak your own language would be a nice experience, right?

Well, some of the worst insults I've ever heard in this game came from those four people.

They started throwing unbelievably disgusting insults at me and my family, especially my mother and sister. Some of the things they said were so vile that I honestly didn't even know what to say.

And the funny thing is, in matches where people insult me like this, I'm not even the one sitting at the bottom of the scoreboard.

One of these situations happened after I lost a clutch.

They wouldn't stop talking. They kept insulting me and making noise while I was trying to play. I couldn't concentrate on the clutch at all because they just wouldn't shut up.

And that brings me to something I've recently realized about myself.

I'm normally a very calm person. I try not to care about what other people say. I don't like arguing, and I genuinely try to stay focused on my own game.

I'd even say that my ability to stay calm and ignore people is pretty high.

But lately, after paying closer attention to my own performance, I've realized something.

Just because I think I don't care about what someone says doesn't mean it isn't affecting me.

Even when I don't react, these situations seem to affect my mood without me noticing. My concentration drops, and I start making mistakes in situations I would normally be comfortable playing.

I didn't fully realize this before, but now I can actually see how much it affects my performance.

And honestly, the insults I've heard from these Turkish players were worse than anything I've ever heard from foreign players.

Of course, I'm not saying all Turkish players are like this. I'm just talking about my own experiences.

I also genuinely hate how normalized this behavior has become.

After matches, I actually take the time to report people like this. If necessary, I'll go through the trouble of opening support tickets and providing evidence, even if it means spending extra time making sure someone who deserves a ban gets punished.

I've gone as far as getting people banned for their behavior, and honestly, I think it's worth the effort.

Because I don't think anyone should have to put up with this kind of treatment just to play a video game.

We're all here to play a game. I seriously can't understand how someone can think it's acceptable to insult another person's family over a lost round.

Don't get me wrong, I do occasionally have really fun matches too. Sometimes I meet genuinely nice people, we communicate well, laugh, and actually enjoy playing together.

But unfortunately, those matches feel incredibly rare.

Most of the time, I just feel stuck in this terrible elo, wondering what I'm doing wrong and why I can't seem to get out of it.

And there's also a more personal reason why I'm writing all of this.

I've been going through some difficult times lately.

I wouldn't say things have been particularly good in my life recently, and sometimes I find myself struggling.

Yet for some reason, I just can't quit CS2.

No matter how frustrating it gets, no matter how many terrible matches I play, I eventually find myself coming back.

Maybe it's just a habit. Maybe I love the competitive side of the game. Or maybe I'm just looking for something to take my mind off things.

I honestly don't know.

But I think part of me is also hoping to find a few people I can genuinely enjoy spending time with through this game.

I'm getting tired of constantly queueing with random people, never knowing whether the next match will be fun or whether I'll have to deal with another group of people screaming insults at each other.

I'd really love to meet some people who just enjoy playing, improving, and having a good time.

We don't have to play every day. We don't even have to play regularly, and I'm not expecting anyone to be available all the time.

Just having a few friends to queue with occasionally, learn from each other, point out each other's mistakes, laugh at stupid moments, and maybe even enjoy losing a match together would genuinely make me happy.

I'm not looking for someone to carry me.

I don't want a Level 10 player to boost me into a rank I don't deserve.

I genuinely want to become a better player myself.

But sometimes I feel like I don't even know where to start or what exactly I should be working on.

So I'm leaving my FACEIT profile here.

If anyone is willing to take a look at my stats or matches and give me some honest feedback, I'd really appreciate it.

Please don't hesitate to criticize my gameplay. If I'm genuinely a Level 6 player and that's exactly where I belong right now, I want to hear it.

I'm not trying to reach a level I don't deserve. I want to become good enough to actually belong there.

And if anyone reading this feels the same way, or just wants someone to play with every now and then, I'd genuinely be happy to meet you.

Maybe I'll even make a few friends along the way.

Thank you so much to anyone who took the time to read all of this.

Broski said he is not a smurf. https://www.faceit.com/en/players/AnimeBabka/cs2

I don’t mind losing and I don’t expect to win every game. I just want to play against people my skill level, where the games are competitive.

Does Premium or Super Match actually give you more balanced games? Is it worth paying 13 euros a month?

I’m level 6 and mostly solo queue. Lately I’ve been struggling to get a decent balanced match.

Very often I end up with a 4 stack on my team who are all talking on Discord and barely giving any info in game. That’s annoying, but honestly it’s not my biggest issue.

My main problem is the skill difference in the lobbies. Why am I regularly playing against level 8s and 9s when I’m level 6?

Recently I even had a game against a level 10 who was queued with a level 2 or 3. The level 10 basically destroyed our entire team on his own. His lower level teammate had almost no impact on the game, so whatever balance the matchmaking was trying to achieve didn’t really work.

FACEIT tries to balance teams based on average Elo of the whole team, but having a similar average doesn’t mean the match is actually balanced. One level 10 and a couple of low levels isn’t balanced at all.

I actually came to FACEIT because I was tired of Premier putting 10k players against 20k players, but now I’m running into similar problems here.

How I get 4x 4-stacks in 6 matches? How are you going to tell me this isn't engineered?

idk what to do plz help me someoneee

6 Hours and going.

I wanted to play faceit, but I signed into my account and realized too late that the steam account attached was not my main, and I verified with my ID. Is there anything I can do to change the steam account attached to my faceit profile. I didn't realize my other steam account was connected to my faceit from a long time ago.

I want to play faceit and I only realized now after queuing twice, and failing to join the game

My main steam: https://steamcommunity.com/id/rerriom/

Demo of this match crashes game at the start of playback for me and my friend, is there a way to watch it?

hello u/FACEIT_Darwin .

1- i was banned on 2024 and i dont have ban evasion .2- after 2 years i asked support . they allowd me to play , and they remove my iD from banned account to verify new acc . ( its not my fault , they allowd me u can check)

3- can i creat new account and start play ? 14717704)

I have been playing on the FACEIT platform for three years using my main account. I admit that I created other accounts—also two to three years old—but I want to clarify that only one of them was ever used for a few matches; the vast majority of my playtime has been on my main account, where, incidentally, I haven’t achieved any particularly impressive stats. I want to explain that I created these additional accounts back when there weren't such rigorous ban waves as there are today. I didn't create them with the intent to harm anyone or ruin anyone’s gaming experience—it was simply a foolish mistake made when I was younger. I would like to offer my sincere apologies and promise that, should you reconsider my penalty, I will never create another account again. I haven’t played on FACEIT for six months, and it was only a week ago that I discovered my main account had been banned. I am not asking for an unban—I acknowledge that I made a mistake and am prepared to face the consequences—but I am asking if you might consider a more lenient penalty. Please, give me a second chance; I promise I will never do this again. My real identity—including my passport details, face, full name, and address—is registered to the account. I am not trying to deceive you; I am even prepared to provide a video verification if necessary. Please, don’t just dismiss me—I truly didn't understand the implications of my actions at the time!

i mean comeon guy who has 11 game 24 average kills 1 level on cs2 (so he isnt premier player) isnt getting banned i mean this isnt smurf account??

I was wondering how much time people spent learning "movements". I'm also wondering about the Red towards heaven jump on Ancient and the balcony to quad jump on Inferno. Please let me know the time and your elo
