MF_James posted:I was talking to some of the guys I was queueing with last night/this morning and some of it really depends on when you're playing. Late night/early morning (US hours) skill level goes way down even at the same ranks. Now I know there's obviously a spread in ranks and some people are definitely higher rank than they should be either from boosting, luck or friends, but I've noticed over the past few weeks that when I play during non-peak US hours the skill level just drops a shitload, I could probably get global if I played from 3am-6am exclusively without making any sort of attempt at improving. Hint: it's because nobody is playing sober during those hours (see: me)

There was a girl in one of my games who had like 110 hours, seemed legit, and was doing pretty well (middle of the board). I'm pretty sure your average girl is better than me at counter strike

illezt posted:Hint: it's because nobody is playing sober during those hours (see: me) Possibly true, but you have to realize that EVERYONE is either high, drunk, or tired, or some combination, so it's a mildly level playing field in that regard. Also, I was doing some valve DM last night, good old deagle only, and some guy started boasting about how he ended up beating me out for first place, so I said to him "The guy at the front of the shortbus is still on the loving shortbus" I feel like I kind of burned myself there, but everyone in the lobby got a good chuckle and I'm pretty sure that dude left shortly after.

wow thanks so much for the quick responses. I wasn't expecting so much helpful advice when i posted, but I guess other users have had the same problems I have! Unfortunately i'm still Overcoming Anxiety so im not sure what ill do yet. But I tried to be really alpha by carrying her, so maybe she will make the first move. I dont think we're ready to join goonmens together yet but rest assured ill keep everyone updated next time we have a conversation. ps: does anyone here would like to volunteer as a middleman in case I do take your advice and give her some skins? (Not sealhammer, we know he can't be trusted in case of scams.)

Finally broke a 6 game losing streak. In those 6 games, I had two games of derankers, one complete troll, and two where at least one teammate left in the first half. Only one was a close game. I feel like GN4 is filled with the worst of people, especially unranked players.

If you want to escape GN or MG just play FFA DM, HSDM, and pistol DM for 30-60 minutes a day and your aim will get good enough and you'll be out of the hell hole within 15-25 comp wins.

can we all take a moment to say a prayer for the five seven? this golden age of pistol rounds ct won't last. next big balance patch will feature some cruel combination of accuracy, ammo, or armor pen reductions and cost increases.
