Added you.
I would recommend to everyone who plays or has played a lot of CS to just take part in this Free to play wave of accounts. Start a new account and play a competitive game on there a few times till you get a rank. Anyone unranked can play with others unranked and/or a full lobby of five works.
I would recommend everyone in the lobby just starts a new account so you are all on the same level, no standing record of red trust possible just a start over. Its quite ironic the effect, Valve is placing the brand new accounts into games exclusively in their own queues. After the first 4 wins, we got
DMG as enemy and still everyone in that game was brand new so it felt like very low Nova, one guy was a familiar challenge of gameplay otherwise it was very laid back games. Ideal to try on xmas day
I just played sawn off with first 2 games so as not to be OTT
Someone in Valve is altering that F2P queue so its nicer to play then the full prime supposedly good trust games. We did eventually lose one and the ranks are in theory at the level I queue at now, but overall Im mentioning it especially as its nothing like non prime would be expected to be. Just dont mix old/new accounts for that ideal
I didnt buy prime, this purely a test of Free CSGO. Eventually I might use the account for wingman, never use a main account in wingman is also good advice to save a lot of pain afaik
The other factor was we both have at least 1 non free game on the account, like it cost a tenner in a sale. That might have helped not 100%
