Patience, my friend, is the key. In CS:GO, temporary cooldowns are there for a reason, like when you've won too many matches as a new player or for other activities Valve wants to keep in check. The cooldown typically lasts for a few days, so use this time to brush up on strategies or learn new grenade throws. There's no fast-forward button, unfortunately. Just wait it out, and you'll be back in action before you know it.

Cooldown? Just wait it out lol. Nothing else you can do.

I once got a temporary cooldown cause I was on a winning streak and the system probably thought I was too good to be true (lol). Seriously though, there's no way around it. You just have to wait until it's lifted. It's a good time to watch some tutorials or pro matches to up your game!

Honestly, the cooldown system is there for a reason, whether it's to deter smurfs or to penalize dodgy behavior. If you're on cooldown, take it as a sign to take a break. Go outside, see the sun, maybe even touch grass. CS:GO will still be there when you get back.
