Someone can play for a day and then get into comp. That is way too little of time.

True, but this is about the same amount of time it takes to get into CS:GO's comp as well. I do see what you mean, though.

I think they should have had the Casual requirement to be level 50 or 100 so everyone knows that if they play causal they know the ins and outs of the game.

That is a terrible idea. First off, how would you level up if you can only play Casual starting at level 50?

Did you mean that they'd have to be 50+ in Casual to play Competitive? If so, that'd at least make some sense, but I think 25+ would be a better starting point.

Yeah, that. If you have casual 50+ in casual then you would know that you have spent time within the game and you are not a new player.If it's 25 I think that would still be a bit too low because the comp player doesn't like to have newer player. If they have the higher level in casual then the comp player would be less likely to complain about the team.

This update had really change Casual mode for the better. I have created a new account to test out if a new player can have fun without getting to g rolled. Not one of my games were rolled during my time. I am very happy with this.

Only thing I don't like for me is the engineer change, I would say remove the first click and keep the original 2nd click and use the new second click on the first click :0 but everything else I love so YAY VALVE

I think this may still be broke. I am still getting in games with 3-4 red tear players and I am only level one. With my new account. So Valve I think never had the new system working before it was shipped.

With a much smaller user base than games like CS:GO and Overwatch, the system isn't going to be super robust. Especially depending on what time you try.

Afaik the visible tiers just show playtime, while the matching is done by actual skill
