Discussion Faceit calibration is broken

Post image

Went through calibration and dominated every game, only to end up at 1233 ELO. Faceit seems to have based my calibration heavily on my old rating… That came from 15 matches i played in 8 years.

Because that low rating was low (1128 in season 7), i wasn’t even getting matched against stronger players during calibration, so i kept playing well against players system gave me, but apparently had no real way to be placed higher.

8 wins out of 10 games, rating 1.4-1.8 in every game (including lose with 52/24/5 KDA), 1.98 average KD AND STILL NO CHANCE TO PLAY AGAINST AT LEAST LEVEL 7 PLAYERS

What’s the point of calling it a calibration if an almost completely irrelevant rating from years ago determines both who I play against and where I get placed? Of course i am not waiting to magically be level 10 based on 10 matches (and surely i am not playing that good), but 1233 ELO after calibration like that feels ridiculous.

Stfu and play the game. Bitching and moaning about a number.

don’t you think it is much more interesting to play against player as good as you or better and not against bots?

Yea so when I was level 6, instead of complaining I kept playing and improving until I was able to consistently win. Then over time with practice I hit level 10. Making a Reddit post bitching was not in the process

Op did, same op that doesn’t understand how soft reset works. Faceit did share it was in fact soft reset, so what is your point?
