ELO in CS:GO isn't exactly like traditional ELO systems. Think of it as a behind-the-scenes number that goes up when you win and down when you lose, but it also considers how well you perform in matches. Valve hasn't spilled all the beans on how it works, but your match performance, MVPs, and the team's performance play a big part. So, you gotta play well and win to rank up!

Simpler answer: ELO in CS:GO is like a secret sauce. You win, it goes up. You lose, it goes down. Your performance matters too. Valve keeps the exact recipe a mystery, but winning and playing like a pro definitely helps!

Actually, CS:GO's ranking system isn't purely ELO based. Valve uses a modified version that factors in individual performance, not just wins and losses. So, even if the game's like 'You lost, buddy', if you played like a champ, your rank won't necessarily tank.
