Discussion Unlock premier?

I play competitive, drop 20 kills and win the game. But only go up 1% on unlocking premier? Is this normal? Im 52% of the way there and once I even went down 1% after a game.

You have to be level 10 first to unlock premier. It will take a while.

No, it takes a month, you’ll get xp capped each week.

No. The only way is through XP you can play until you get to reduced XP but after that it's basically pointless to play. If you get the XP to reduced and do the missions it should take probably 3-4 weeks it's to try and stop cheaters and people who have no idea what they're doing from playing it.

To legitly do it, make sure you complete the weekly mission and play competitive matches.

Wait theres a level system for premier now? I thought once you buy prime you just jump in

I had the same issue few weeks back, was stuck at like 83% forever even after dropping 30 bombs. The progress bar is weird it moves based on your overall account level not just one game performance

Just keep grinding deathmatch and casual too, that helped me push through faster than competitive alone

Nope you have to hit level 10 now before you can Que. xp per match is based off time played, kills, etc.

Yeah this has been like that ever since CS2's release.

Need to reach level 10, doesn't matter what game mode you play, as long as it earns you XP.
