CS2 Matchmaking still sucks

[AimBothered]

After almost 5 months since release, the matchmaking is still the worst I've seen, nearly every single game I get into I'm getting shot through walls or smokes. I can't even tell when someone is playing well or just cheating anymore.

I thought maybe the hacker problem is only for lower ratings (10k or less), but I spoke to a lot of 15k players and most of them encounter cheaters very often, so it just makes it undesirable to even rank up.

The rating system makes no sense, I hover around 4/5k rating (ik im trash) but yet every single player with a rating in my lobby is higher than 7/8k, you might say that this is because I'm getting boosted by someone, but I solo queue 90% of the time.

The other side of competitive (the map ranks) make no sense either, I won all my games when cs2 first came out and I got silver 2 (mirage), after that I player 3 more games, won 2 and lost 1, and I ranked down to silver 1. Valve needs to do some serious work on this game or its just gonna die out

Even after so much time it still sucks. I noted 30 of my matches in a row. EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM put me in a team where at least two of my teammates were AFK all the time, all of us got killed with no kills on our side at all and the opponent was on e-sports level AND they allergedly even communicated with each other on discord in the background.
Again: ALL 30 matches in a row.
Valve and steam keeps tracking you, selling your sensitive data to the most shady businesses on Earth (I still keep getting ads on my phone about stuff I talked about in chats ONLY), but they won't use any of your data to put you into a match where players are on your level. CS just sucks after Source. The only way one can enjoy this game is by creating their own server and playing with REAL friends. Going online is a waste of time and money.

valve love making new players dying over and over again by sending them fighting agaisnt those low life peoples with weird ass badges, its not "competitive" nor "casual" its a slaughterhouse for new peeps

Yeah, true, its sucks. No balance, and there are dozen of smurfers and cheaters in every game mode. And it's especially funny why you have to play a 4v5 ranked game, when team mate is rage quit, or got banned..
