Nope, there's no magical loophole here. Once you're in a competitive match, you're in it to win it (or lose it, together). Leaving penalizes you to maintain the competitive integrity of the game. So, think twice before hitting that accept button!

Honestly? You really can't bail on a competitive match in CS:GO without facing some sort of penalty. The game's designed to discourage leaving mid-match to ensure fair play. If you gotta step away, best you can hope for is to ask your teammates to vote to surrender if you're not coming back, though this still counts against your rank. But hey, life happens, and sometimes you just gotta take the hit.

I’ve seen players disconnect their internet on purpose, thinking it's a sneaky way to leave without penalty. Spoiler: It doesn’t work. You still get penalized. Best advice? Just play your best 'til the end.
