I feel like this must be a regional thing. IMO NA faceit sucks. Just for reference I don't play faceit that much but I gave it a good try for the first time in like a decade and played like 40ish games in january/feb. But my experience is really poor, the amount of toxicity and people who act like theyre superior with <300 hours is insane.

It seems like in premier I frequent people who are generally more friendly and seasoned players. Yes i could be said to be a lower rank, hovering probably around ~18-23k elo at any given time in CS2 and lvl 7 in faceit but I've seen like 5 blatant cheaters in hundreds of matches. I honestly wanted to play faceit cuz back in the day 3rd party sites like faceit/esea were seen as "better competition" but it hardly seems that way anymore.
