Team Fortress 2
Why so many high levels in casual but barely anyone in comp
I always see someone with a unusual or lv 100+ or is tier 8, but when i try to join a comp match i wait a whole hour before getting in a match??

valve comp is garbage

the high ranks are basically unplayable due to how small the player base is, so your mmr ideally needs to be low for fast games. sadly you can only find games during peak hours which varies depending on if you are from EU or NA. if you queue during peak hours, and have reasonable mmr, you will find games every 5 minutes or so. hope to see you there.

Valve comp is poorly implemented and has no incentive to play.
There is such a high skill ceiling in comp compared to casual that not many players play it, and also the fact you have to pay for a comp pass or have a phone number. So not many people can afford that.

Comp has some of the best games to offer due to the 6v6 format providing the highest skill game-play available. You just need to know when to queue. As one of the best sniper mains in NA, I can guarantee you won't improve at all if you play exclusively casual.
Basically, "Why pay 4.99 *just* to get a ticket to play Comp rather then becoming a Premium account, needing a literal Phone number, and needing to be a certain casual level when you can just play an enternal game of CTF", that's pretty much the nutshell of my opinion I guess. Also, bot issue ofc.

Competitive gamemodes are a cancer upon video games. You should play video games to be chill and have fun, not obsess over ranks and meta strategies or whatever those nerds care about.

spoken like a TRUE hello kitty adventure enjoyer
comp matchmaking is broken and "people" who play on there usually never connect to the match
The people that are actually interested in competitive stick to the community competitive formats. Valve Comp just sucks...

> hit Death Merchant rank
> queue for 5 hours on the evenings
> finally found a game
> one guy didn't join due to crash and the match is canceled
> repeat

Alternative:

You found a game agaist the same group of cheaters that'll make it last for hours or until enough people leave to cancel the match.

valve comp being bad aside, don't confuse level 100+unusuals with comp players in general. some of these guys have been sticking to pubs the whole time.

besides, even community comp players come back to pubs. reason's that 12v12 casual is not the same experience as established comp formats.
