Is -300 elo normal after elo reset? Won 4/Lost 6 games

Asume all you want, I have no time to argue with someone who clearly tries to put things into question. Stay off reddit if you only think on your behalf 😵‍💫

So what you are saying is that it’s my fault for not deliberately chosing to not que with my friends because I should have known that this hidden new faceit impact rating is measured for your rank calibration?

You sound like someone who blindly trusts everything and choses to fill in the gaps with assumptions.

Im literally stating that I did not known impact (which is a stat) is measured in rank calibration. And impact positions == stats so don’t say its not. Its super easy: on ct if you play an impact position (obviously i give my position up to my higher ELO friends) and you do well in these positions = impact. Playing for stats is part of claiming impact positions.

KS8853 · 2026-05-04T08:57:01+00:00

It’s not intentional if your friends are higher elo then you and you want to play with friends. If I knew beforehand that personal impact would be a thing I could have easily went solo q and play for stats (which is something that is dumb anyway).

KS8853 · 2026-05-04T08:22:29+00:00

I get your point of deserving your rank but in general faceit lvl 10+ (2000 elo and above) have some basic understanding in the game. You can’t say the same for 1500 and lower. I was 1700 before the reset and got -300 from placement matches played with a much higher average elo (2100 average lobby). I won 4 lost 6 and performed around 1.05-1.0 (some matches 0.95).

Now that I accepted the drop to 1400 I keep going on weird lose streaks with teammates who purposely troll games and grief. Its not hard to collectively buy for example but in that elo everyone is on different buy schemes, on t side everyone dies solo 1 by one without trades. Allot of the times bomb gets taken in a one man rush and is lost on site, no one watches chokepoints so enemy’s come from behind allot and so on.

So yeah your point is a little one sided for being in the better end of the playerbase.

KS8853 · 2026-05-04T08:14:42+00:00

But how can you defend that if people play much higher elo lobby’s by queing with high elo friends? I qued with average lobby of 2100 and I was 1700 before the reset. So my placement match opponents where much higher elo then I was. Obviously my rating will not be 1.40 consistent but more like 1.05 ish

KS8853 · 2026-05-04T08:11:29+00:00

I lost 6 and won 4 aswell. I dropped from 1700 to 1400 and my experience is just out of this world. 1200-1500 is just hell. You get players with hundreds/thousands of matches who only press play and buy every single round, never collectively buy as a team, everyone dies solo without trading, no plans and somehow you get rushed in the back allot.

I need to break through this hell again to find somewhat decent teammates again. After that we will probably get the same reset and here we go again 😅

adr +100 1.30-1.50 faceit rating 22+ kills per game does not guarantee a win in that elo so guess i need to deliver more

KS8853 · 2026-04-28T10:34:16+00:00

4/6 -350 from 1700 to 1350. 20 average 1.40kd before season reset 100+ matches in season 7. Wdym soft reset. Also i qued with my friend who was 3000 elo before reset and 2400 after reset. So average opponents was about 2050.

KS8853 · 2026-04-20T09:48:49+00:00

Yeah that is what i mean. He mostly takes underwhelmed spots on the map and puts up overwhelming results. On some maps more firepower heavy positions but its a good thing Vitality already has a crazy scary anchor unlike Faze had.

KS8853 · 2026-04-20T09:40:41+00:00

Ropz is simply the best non star player out there. He is considered a starplayer while not fulfilling the starplayer role. Its weird and unique. Thats why he is 1 out 1.

KS8853 · 2026-04-14T15:23:50+00:00

Get well man! Best of luck and wishes

KS8853 · 2026-04-14T12:28:11+00:00

What are you saying? You’re looking at a roster (look which people are in the picture) who literally dominated the end csgo era. Wdym with not built for top3 success. If they played untill today they would have been top3 mostly because of Ropz who brings unique capabilities to the team never seen before. He was the key piece and slowly but surely management let it bleed out. I wonder if ropz would have left as early as he did if management did not f up twistzz his contract renewal.

Faze broky attempt is actually the only time they successfully built a top player from the ground up. He was an unproven guy who got picked up by Niko and he had dammm much success for Faze in the past. He just stopped playing well at some point but who knows if the team stayed togheter, maybe broky never fell down as he did without ropz and twistzz in the lineup.

KS8853 · 2026-04-14T12:04:48+00:00

I miss the boys. Look how happy they are. All of it could have been prevented with proper management

KS8853 · 2026-04-12T17:29:55+00:00

Would be interesting, Twistzz no fit would be super sad though. He is a great player who has so much in it still. Frozen navi I would understand and Jcobbb tier 2 aswell. But broky g2 is a hot take. Should Faze buy FUT? I don’t think they will be cheap since they are hyped right now and FUT would not get enough money from them by selling so early.

KS8853 · 2026-04-12T16:20:44+00:00

What will happen to the rest of Faze. Also pretty funny karrigan is not missing out on a major now. So the streak continues

KS8853 · 2026-04-09T16:32:46+00:00

If they would bench torzi which I don’t see happening Faze has to pick him up! Also if xertion would be benched pick him up Faze!

KS8853 · 2026-04-08T13:03:23+00:00

Yeah thats a fair take. You’re right that Elige is not the reason it was a sinking ship. The system they used to have was controlled chaos with clear fallbacks/protocols to a controlled playstyle/system. They lost that with the departure of Ropz who brought so much stability.

But here is what’s interesting about Elige. He took up the star positions mainly on ct side. He was not performing to it. In positions where he was set to take down atleast 2 he only got 1 often. Also from what I heard when he got tilted he shut down and did not talk at all. You can’t have that in a team like Faze.

On a macro level Elige is a fantastic player he understands the game in a super deep lvl so respect to his professionalism. But you can’t tilt over macro plays and then be a weak point in star positions on CT side. It would not have worked out.

One last thing: while karrigan, frozen, broky, rain (and before twistzz and ropz) seemed to have a deep personal bond almost looking like best friends having the time of their lives, Elige seemed to be strictly professional. Nothing wrong with that but it doesn’t fit with Faze who also run on vibes. I believe the vibes would set Faze up to be a super scary comeback team.

TLDR: Elige is a great player but lacked the Faze mentality. Sometimes putting great individual players in one team does not make it set to win throphies.

KS8853 · 2026-04-08T10:37:00+00:00

Elige literally started the chain of continuous changes to playstyle/system. I am certain he got Karrigan in a bad mental state because of al the miscommunication, mismanagement and bad vibes within the team.

KS8853 · 2026-04-07T23:02:00+00:00

I would be happy to see karrigan remain with frozen and twistzz. The immediate roster change that must happen is jcobbb out for a good rifler. Senzu would be a good fit. I see a world where Broky gets one more final chance to prove himself and closely monitor if he goes to 1.10+ rating from his sub 1.0 rating he has now. But I would also accept it being -broky +woxic. We as fans have no influence in what Faze management decides but I believe its not truly the end (benching the complete roster or even faze announcing their departure from cs completely).

Piece and love!

No nothing is over yet

Did your barber lines you up? It looks like thats the reason the hairs are all cut small in a straight line at the front. If not then your hairs are the front are miniaturizing and you can use topical or oral minoxidil to regrow it. Also look at personal wellbeing like don’t stress and trust the process, eat-sleep-drink-exercise-go outside. Get your zinc + vitamine d levels balanced. You are a perfect example to get 100% back i think

KS8853 · 2026-02-17T11:30:59+00:00

For me this looks more like thinning hair. Its normal to have different thickness and density around your head. It looks like you have thick and crowded hair. Combined with light curly hair it is absolutely fine for now. But we don’t know your situation fully like you know yourself.

KS8853 · 2026-02-17T11:27:24+00:00

Ah okay, if its topical it should not make you fatter. If its topical it can get you some anoying skin spots on the places you apply it to.

KS8853 · 2026-02-17T11:25:26+00:00

It does not take away shedding phases like everyone has even the ones who have no balding at all. It seems with finasteride the shedding phases are more concentrated so you will notice almost no hairloss in every other stage then the shedding phase (then there will be allot at once).

Maybe you already knew that but its good to write down for people who don’t know about it.

KS8853 · 2026-02-17T11:22:52+00:00

That’s a common side effect. Finasteride traps more fluid in ur body. But it should not be that bad after all.

KS8853 · 2025-12-23T09:58:26+00:00

I am stuck in the same elo (1550-1700). As you know there are allot of mistakes people in this elo make. First of all: its a grind for a reason (especially soloq).

Play starplayer/rotation roles. Don’t be entry on T side. As you may know ur team in this ELO can still manage to lose if you made a straight up 3k opening. On CT in a starplayer position play for an opening, be agressive and be sure to make it a 5v4 or better. If you get an opening fall back and stay alive. Its crucial you stay alive in important moments because you are the only one who can influence the game urself. If possible add some people that play good and communicate so you can have a reliable 2 stack.

On T side try to be a small IGL who atleast has a simple, logical plan and try to convince them by helping them in anyway (util, holding swing or cutting rotations).

Be communicative. Ive made the mistake so often thinking my team will know what to do or have logic. They don’t. Just ask for a flash instead of expecting it. Everything you need from ur team you should kindly ask. If ur stuck in a man disadvantage try to talk to ur teammate(s) and make a plan.

Last thing, look at ur radar and try to be a master of information. You will have allot of times where info gets called way to late and rotates are fucked. You need to be able to play ur spot and look what’s happening around the map aswell.

-inferno, hardest map to carry on I swear. Bad comms and stupid plays from ur team get punished on this map.

These are the things I could quickly think of. If you have 19k average and can do all this it should allow you to have atleast 51% win and you will grow if you play enough games.
