Got global elite thanks to the recent banwaves :D
Altho I have to say, the level of play at global elite is dogshit. We could troll the whole game doing random shit like rushing b every round on dust 2 and still destroying the other team. I remember LEM being much harder than global now before the banwave. I guess its time to look at alternatives, but im reluctant to pay for ESEA and I dont like faceit. I've tried CEVO some time ago, but I don't know if I like the lack of automatic matchmaking.

Yeah man I played with a SMFC dude that literally looked like a gold player the other day :D ESEA is pretty good, but I think the faceit ladder system makes it interesting, although I haven't tried the paid matchmaking. Grats on global, gotta grind to reach it too now that it's holidays time!

Can someone explain to me why i got demoted without playing MM?

It can happen when you've had hackers on your teams in the past that got VAC banned. Results of those games are reverted. Sucks assuming you didn't know or queue with them

You only checked your last 8 games I assume, since that's all that you can access within CSGO? There have been several major VAC ban waves in the last week or two, a lot of accounts have been banned that were hacking for a very long time.
Afaik there is no other way you could derank without playing.

Same. Was MGE for a long time, and achieved LE last night but it feels bittersweet because the level of play doesn't really seem too much higher, just that everyone got shifted on the bell curve when a bunch of spots opened up due to the ban waves. Still feel like I'm pretty bad and that my opponents are for the most part not particularly strong either.

So i figured that telephones don't exist in russia. Apperantly you have to talk to your friends and family through CS ingame voice while ruining the game for everybody.

I think I spend like 2 weeks going from Silver 3 to GN1, spend 2 weeks in GN 2 but finally reached GN 3 yesterday!.
I have adopted a pseudo russian/CIS voice to communicate with my eastern friends, resorting to broken english which they can understand
it works oke-ish.
|
works oke-ish .. hehe. Had a game last night too with 4 eastern friends. We ALL tried really hard to communicate with each other.. but oh boy.. Still was a fun match thou.
Over the last three weeks i`ve played like 10 to 12 games and got promoted twice without any kind of effort. I even made a team kill which caused us a lost round but still got promoted. It was a good night overall. Got an ace, made 3 and 4k`s with famas - burst mode! (hrhr) - and all that vs. sem/gn1 guys. I felt like 18 all over again

Got to double AK last bought. Just one more to go for my badge. :D. I was thinking about trying out ESEA for month, but do you guys think that MGE is too low?

its a bit on the low side but with ESEA getting bigger and the average skill level in pugs getting lower, I don't see why not try it out.
you can buddy me or anyone that has ESEA on here and we'll pug it out :D

Edit Just got ESEA today. My account name is SonicAlarm. Like I said, I'm only MGE, but I'd love to meet and play with some of you TLers as I improve.
