Hard to get ranks in competitive?

[patrik 弗里曼]

I don't understand how do competitive ranks work? It took me 26 games to get GOLD NOVA 1 on Mirage but 9 games on Dust 2 for Master Guardian 1?

Could anyone explain?
Also please check my csstats, you will see that I'm performing good but there's also a lot of cheaters in my games.

Regarding previous reply — look at his other replies: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199573725984/posthistory
and you'll figure it out

Regarding your opening post — did you get your Gold Nova I on Mirage before the update they've made to Competitive ranking system? Like when you had to win 10 matches on a map just to get a rank
And then you probably played Dust II and got a rank after winning just 2 games, is that correct?

If so then that's the reason — they've made competitive rankings much more dynamic and much easier to get.

If not so then, well, competitive ranking system is kind of random now, so it doesn't make sense at all… Premier makes much more sense but not as much as normal competitive ranks in like 2015-2019

I've recently got into gaming again as I've upgraded my computer. So no I haven't gotten gold nova 1 before. I got 4000 elo on premiere win 10 premiere matches and went below that like 3500ish.

I guess it's just random or it's based on my premiere elo?

It so easy I reached LE on dust 2 in just a span of 15 games.

How did you get all achievements in half life alyx in 7 hours? The game alone is 12 hours long and the 100% completion takes about 20 hours.

NoVR mod with achievement guide while loading different chapters after finishing the game

EDIT: you can check the hours on the achievements I have

I would wager that playing with team mates helps.

I've tried playing with friends, sometimes it's okay but sometimes they drop me because either: I'm bad at the game or my games are hacker lobbies. Although 1-2 friends never give up with me, God bless them.

EDIT: I also just abandon when there's a hacker, no point of just wasting time, would rather play something else like cod or minecraft

pro tip: abandoning makes you meet even more hackers, and it sort of creates an infinite loop where you "behave badly" (according to what the system sees) because you are getting cheaters, and since you are "behaving badly" the system is making you play with even more cheaters.

clarification #1: you will still get cheaters even if your "behavior" is perfect according to the system, just less
clarification #2: I am not saying that I am agreeing with anything I am describing here, I am NOT STATING MY OPINION HERE
