Why am I playing against no name accounts?

[LambdaDango ( '' λ)]

I'm constantly getting matched against no name accounts not older than 2 years with not a single medal or just that worthless csgo badge and a steam level under 10 while my account got 14 years on record, many playhours and service medals and a steam level above 30.

Weirdly enough it's always these accounts that trashtalk/provoke and dominate everything.

What is trustfactor for?!

[Hamless Hog]

because matchmaking isnt based on anything you just mentioned.

Trust is to help separate likely cheaters from legit players.

Trust Factor is determined by looking at a user's past experience in Counter-Strike 2 and on Steam

So, all my years of Counter-Strike experience, being a part of the Steam community, and hundreds of hours of gameplay are considered just as worthless as a brand-new Steam account with little to no playtime.

Thank you Valve.

Sorry but just because you bought a 14 year old account that doesn't mean you will also play against 14 year old accounts

How are people getting banned for cheating then. Sounds like youre just encouraging others to cheat, why?

names are for friends man

You need to look at it from the perspective of other players.
We all wish we could play against legends like s1mple, renyan, ohnepixel, zuhn, brutale, masterlooser, clara, forsaken...
Do you think anyone thinks: "Oh, what a great day to play, I hope I run into "LambdaDango ( '' λ)" today, that would be just splendid."
Of course we don't, now replace your name with the names of all the players you met during your last games. And see just how rude your post is.

Because, you're a no name, just like them. Where is your hltv page? You want to run into pro players? Then become one first.

That's not what I said at all. There's a big difference between a 14 year old profile with over 1000 play hours and an empty one made a year ago with almost no play hours and 40% banned friends.

It's literally everything I mentioned. The FAQ says it's about the collected Counter Strike experience AND Steam experience, both of which these accounts completely lack.

Where does it say that in the faq?
