To jump onto the NA servers for CS:GO, you're gonna want to use a VPN. Just pick a VPN service, connect to a server located in North America, and voila! CS:GO should automatically match you on NA servers based on your new IP address. But remember, playing on servers far from your actual location might increase your ping, making gameplay a bit laggy.

Actually, you might not need a VPN at all. Just set your max acceptable matchmaking ping to higher in the game settings. This tells CS:GO you're okay with playing on servers with higher ping, potentially including those in NA. It's a bit hit or miss, but worth trying before diving into VPN land.

Max ping setting > VPN any day. I've been playing from Europe on NA servers with just a tweak in the game's settings. High ping is a bit of an issue, but it beats the hassle and potential risks of using a VPN.
