At least a few years ago when I was still following the CS:GO scene a lot of pros weren't Global Elite. It takes a different skillset to be able to dominate pubs and to be able to work well in a professional CS team.
- samb1729 5y agoA lot of pros aren’t global elite simply because they don’t play matchmaking seriously at all. Absolutely every professional csgo player in a top-20/30/100 team would easily attain that rank if they wanted it.
- sage76 5y agoNot in North America. Some pro admitted that there's way too much cheating for him to get to SMFC or GE.
- rowanG077 5y agoI mean that's a pretty empty statement then. I might as well say "Anyone can easily attain Global Elite if they wanted it.". Most people aren't taking matchmaking serious at all. It's just a pub game. I don't see a reason to hold pros to a lower standard here.
- sudosysgen 5y agoNo. Some NA pros have actually said they couldn't do it. There are a lot of cheaters and you get punished for trying to play as a team.
