A professional-level teammate in your matches. You play your own games on your own Steam account; they queue with you.

No. You keep full control of your account and play every round yourself.

No. We don't guarantee a win rate or a number of wins here — you're playing the matches and CS is a five-player game. If you want guaranteed wins, that's our boosting section: Premier Wins and FACEIT Wins are available in both solo and duo.

They're completely separate systems with separate ratings, so buy the one you actually play. Premier Duo covers Valve's Premier ladder and CS Rating. FACEIT Duo covers FACEIT, where the competitive scene sits and the standard is generally higher. If you play both, start wherever you're most stuck.

FACEIT Level 10 is a smaller, stronger pool of players and demand for them is higher. The gap reflects availability, not a markup.

For IGL Duo, yes — that service is someone calling your strategy and reading the economy out loud, and without voice there's nothing to buy. AWPer Duo and the standard duos work without one, though CS is a comms game and you'll get more from it with a mic.

Five-game bundles on each platform, at a lower price per game than buying singles. Pick the one matching the ladder you play.

Buy timing, eco rounds and force-buy calls. CS's economy is the most misunderstood system in the game — one player force-buying while the team saves loses the round for everyone. It's small, teachable, and it changes results immediately. VOD Review is the alternative if you'd rather have your own demos analysed.
