Newsflash, there are games you just cannot win. Now if you judge your level from a few games you carried, you are stupid.
The reason you are not ranking up is because you are ignoring your bad performances, and only focusing on the times you did well and your team didn't.
I've dropped over 40 frags a game and still lost, sometimes it's like that. You can't really prevent that from happening occasionally.
Drop the 20-30 frags always, and you will rank up faster than you can say olofmeister.

I've coached and boosted so many silvers, GNs, MG's, LEs and LEMs who literally think that the almost only problem is their teammates. When I look at their play, they might have ok (notice the word ok, not even good) aim but can't even throw a single smoke properly.
Then they exit frag their brains out and after the game tell me how their teammates fucked their game up again. "Just look at my score mate"
Now I'm here to tell you all something, all of us here (including me) are pretty bad at the game in the end. Once you accept that you make a thousand mistakes and that you don't know everything / do the correct plays every time, you can look at your own play and improve.

But the attitude that people like Kirito here (And many more) has "I never get paired with anyone decent, on occasion some of them can be nice and stuff, but they play like they are in cod."
Just shows me that people here have no idea how the game actually works. Sometimes you get good games, but that doesn't mean you are better than you actually are. Wake up.

Now lets say randoms are all called mr x, and all have the same chance to be good or bad.

Now this is what your games will look like every time.


Your team

Kirito
Mr x
Mr x
Mr x
Mr x


Their team

Mr x
Mr x
Mr x
Mr x
Mr x

Now this means, that if you are lets say even slightly better than the average player of your rank a.k.a Mr x, it would mean that you'd have over 50% chance of winning games so you'd rank up.

Now if you are below or the same skill level as the average player in your rank, you will sometimes get good mr x's and sometimes bad, and that determines your wins. Now lets say I go do your ranked games, Id say I'm 200% better than the average player of your rank. Now that would make it so that I win most of the games with or without good mr x's, especially with good mr x's. The winrate of my MG1 smurf is around 90%, and I'm Global, so how can you expect to win every game when you are not even a smurf.

Now if you are saying that you can't change the outcome of the game and that your teammates determine if you will win or lose, that means that you are NOT better than them. Then you are at the rank you should be at (or even below)
My win rate all across my CS:GO MM "carreer " is around 52%, meaning I've slowly and steadily climbed as I got better. Sometimes I got good teammates, and sometimes bad. Sometimes I was good and sometimes bad. But I was just slightly above my rank, so I could keep climbing and improving. Thus crying about your teammates is nothing but a pathetic attempt to tell yourself how you are better than your teammates, even tho you are clearly not.

YOU ARE THE ONLY COMMON DENOMINATOR IN YOUR GAMES!

P.s, nobody reading comments such as "I never get paired with anyone decent, on occasion some of them can be nice and stuff, but they play like they are in cod."
will think "Ooooh, so Kirito is actually super good at the game, he just has shit teammates."
