Why can I only play 2 Competitive CS:GO Matches in a day?

If you're new to the Competitive scene in CS:GO, Valve has placed a temporary cooldown on new accounts to prevent smurfing and cheating. Once you win two matches, you're hit with a 21-hour cooldown, and this is in place until you've won a total of 10 matches. After that, you're considered 'ranked,' and the restriction lifts!

It's all about proving you're not a robot or a cheater! Valve wants to make sure everyone playing Competitive is legit, so they limit you to winning 2 matches a day until you hit that sweet 10 wins. Frustrating, but it's for the best.

Honestly, it's annoying, but it's Valve's way of making sure the competitive play stays fair. Stick with it, after your first 10 wins the game really opens up.

Idk why everyone's chill with this. Limiting games is just Valve's lazy way to handle cheaters. Should find better solutions.
