How is CS:GO ELO Calculated?

CS:GO doesn't actually use a straightforward ELO system. It's more complex, involving a modified version of the Glicko-2 rating system. This means the game doesn't just look at wins and losses but also your performance in matches, who you're playing against, and the uncertainty in your rank. So, if you want to rank up, focus not just on winning, but on playing well consistently against good opponents!

It's all witchcraft and wizardry, friend. Just play your best and hope the CS:GO gods smile upon you.

Honestly, nobody knows the exact details except the devs, but it's not your regular ELO. CS:GO's system takes into account more than just wins. It's like the recipe for KFC chicken; a secret blend of performance, match outcomes, and probably how much you scream into the mic (jk on that last part).
