Should I play with you on your alt or main? I feel like when I join you guys on your mains, I'm so far outranked I don't add much value to the team.

My only issue is that when you force yourself to play lower ranked games it influences the level of competition you are mentally trained to play at. Just for advice, don't try to be a Eagle on your alt. account.

That's how it feels at the start...I was getting wrecked on the regular playing with Wolf and Eyecream when I was unranked / GN3. But that was April...in October, it's a different story
...now I only get wrecked every third game 
Up to you - I don't have a second account yet btw. Waiting for a Steam sale
That is the thing, the more you peer into the lower ranks the more you play like a lower ranked player. That is why I play on alts, means quiet simply that my main is going to rank up as I'm playing against higher ranks on my alt, meaning I'll play better on my main.
Another reason I'm trying 3rd party services like Billosoft, it puts me up against way better players then me, meaning my skill level goes up a little.

Yeah, I get that. But if I only play with players around my rank or higher, that limits my options to get a game. Basically, everyone one of you, Cav, Beel and Hellboy have to be available at the same time.
I could solo at that rank but don't know how well that will go.
Probably worth a try. I always join you guys and I often don't bottom frag, so at least thats something, though obviously not the same as playing with them.
Just invite me if I'm online. Besides Zeusing Wolf, I will play my best.

I will think about it to buy a alt. account. I have one, but it is out somewhere in the wild and I see it is still being used. I will rather buy a new one.
This is why I play so much demo, it is a rushed casual game.
Just don't make your goal to smurf... see it as a alt. account, and remember that it will be ranked in time.
There is a difference between not bottom fragging and making a difference. A player bottom fragging can have a big impact on the game as well, even at times a bigger than people getting more frags. Remember, the game isn't about frag hunting, the game is way deeper than that.

Wow, Gen said this.
I get the irony, but last time I played with you I noticed how much easier it is playing CT when I'm not trying to push myself into a corner. Yes, we lost as a result of me pushing, but hey, live and learn.
I know that dude.

It is not that, but I have said it many times and it seems to fly over some people's heads. It is the same with some carries, sometimes there is a carry because situationally it was rewarded to that player.

Here is my take on playing with lower ranked players. I don’t have an issue with it, but lower ranked players tend to get frustrated and then some individualism comes into play, look it happens to experienced players as well. Some people also get confused between a caller and a schooler. I am very hard on people, at times, that is why I like when Prod is making the calls for team composition and composure.
I just call it as if we were playing a competition
I am driven by results, and CSGO comp is not pro.

Yeah...kind of the opposite is playing mid on Mirage. I usually end up 0.5kd when I play there...sacrificed so Wolf can chill on B in a corner.
I'm guilty of that, I often also get annoyed when I get one tapped. I get salty. I start accusing. I start playing badly. I start feeling the need to uninstall the game. I get bitter.Here is my take on playing with lower ranked players.

As of late I feel like lower ranks is just annoying. I have a silver account, but I'll never play on it again as the game is bad when you play Silver to Nova 3 about. Before MG you can really solo queue and carry a team, but once you go beyond MG1 solo queuing is horrible.
When I solo queue on my one alt that is MG I get put up against MGEs, and teamed with people who only way to derank. Had a game where I just ended up leaving the game as it was better than playing with that kind of toxic people.
This guy seriously needs to get banned

That Daz guy mainly hangs out in casual. Casual is full of hackers.
