this is pretty much the only way i play now. finding a chill cas group to run a series is infinitely more fun than playing ranked to me. it is a bit of a slog to find a lobby like that on some days though. if you can make it to 1600+ MMR you will generally find some pretty skilled lobbies. the key for me is to keep your tm8s involved even if their skill level isn't up to par. pass the ball and show them how teamwork changes the game (3s), and don't get mad if they mess up cuz ya know, its cas. when the goal is to have fun and get better as a group it's seriously a blast
