Do you lose ELO for surrendering in CS:GO?
Best answer
ELOphilic
Totally, surrendering is like telling the game, 'we give up, you win,' so of course, you lose ELO. It's all part of the game's way to keep matches competitive and fair. Also, it prevents people from abusing the system to get or lose ranks in an unfair manner.

Actually, I feel like surrendering doesn't hit your ELO as hard as getting blasted in every round. It's more like a mercy rule to me.

Surrender = ELO loss, yes. But think of it as cutting your losses sometimes. If you're getting absolutely stomped, it might save you some time and frustration.

Yes, surrendering in CS:GO does result in a loss of ELO, just like if you played the game out and lost. The main difference is you might lose slightly more ELO for surrendering since it's considered a full loss, whereas playing could have led to a less severe loss if the match was close.
