How to Level Up Fast in CS2?

Counter-Strike has had a level up system for a while now, and most players have just accepted that grinding is part of the game. However, with CS2 out and people not having nearly as much time to spend grinding, many players look for ways to level up quickly. Fortunately, we have some ways for you to do just that.

The thing about CS2 is that some game modes give you more experience per hour. This can be because of the modes taking less time to end or because they give you more experience per match won. Therefore, if you want to level up quickly in CS2 then you should play competitive, casual, wingman, arms race, deathmatch, and operation event matches.

Keep reading to find out the best ways to rack up some experience points quickly.

Why You Might Want to Level Up Quickly in CS2

Before delving into the game modes that offer the most XP, it's essential to understand why leveling up quickly can be advantageous. The higher your profile ranking, the more access you have to advanced gameplay features and matchmaking options, such as Prime Matchmaking and Service Medals.

Even disregarding the rewards players get for leveling up to a high enough level, there's also the fact that you need to hit level 2 to even unlock competitive mode. This means that you can't even begin climbing the ranks if your level isn't high enough. No wonder players want to find ways to level up quickly, right?

Competitive Matches

Experience earned with Competitive Matches = 30 x Rounds Won

The first and foremost method to level up rapidly in CS2 is by participating in Competitive matches. All players can unlock Competitive matchmaking once their account reaches Level 2, making it accessible to everyone. Competitive mode is not only the most popular game mode but also offers a substantial amount of XP.

In Competitive matches, you earn XP based on the number of rounds your team wins. This means that regardless of your individual performance or whether your team wins or loses, you will still receive a decent amount of XP for completing Competitive matches.

One rather reliable way of quickly farming experience is by playing CS2 with a professional booster from Eloking. By doing so, you'll significantly increase your chances of winning matches and rounds, and the more you win the more experience you'll get too.

Casual Matches

Experience earned with Casual Matches = 4 x Your Score

Casual matches are another effective way to earn XP and level up swiftly. These unranked matches offer a more relaxed gaming experience compared to Competitive matches. In Casual, you earn XP based on your personal performance score. 

To maximize your XP earnings in Casual mode, consider teaming up with friends or Eloking  boosters. When dead, players can spectate both teams, allowing you to provide valuable information to your friends and enhance your collective performance. Nothing like some good old fashioned teamwork to rack up those wins.

Wingman Matches

Experience earned with Wingman Matches = 15 x Rounds Won

If you prefer a more intimate gaming experience, Wingman matches are a fantastic choice. In this two-versus-two mode, you earn XP based on the number of rounds your team wins. 

Wingman matches are played on smaller versions of Competitive maps, leading to quicker game completion and, consequently, a more time-effective method of earning XP. It's basically the lite version of comp with lesser stakes and quicker matches. Sounds like a good deal to us.

Deathmatch Matches

Experience earned with Deathmatch Matches = 0.2 x Your Score

For players who want to earn XP based on individual performance, Deathmatch mode is ideal. In Deathmatch, your goal is simple: run around and eliminate other players. 

Deathmatch matches have a fixed duration of ten minutes, providing ample opportunities to accumulate XP. The better you perform individually, the more XP you'll earn, so be prepared to give it your all.

Perhaps the best thing about this game mode is that it's very easy to increase your score. Because it's a Deathmatch and players are constantly respawning, you'll get more than enough time to take down as many enemies as you can to get those frag points.

Arms Race Matches

Experience earned with Arms Race = 1.0 x Your Score

In Arms Race mode, your objective is to secure kills using various CS2 weapons. While it may not be the most efficient method for leveling up, Arms Race can help you become more proficient with different weapons.

Arms Race matches tend to be short, making them a suitable option for quick gaming sessions to earn regular XP. Keep an eye out for the bonus weapon!

Operation Events

"Operations" in CS2 refer to periodic in-game events that introduce new features, game modes, weekly bonuses, and side missions. Participating in Operations can yield a significant amount of XP, making them a valuable avenue for leveling up quickly. These events breathe fresh life into the game and are eagerly anticipated by CS2 players.

Basically, we understand how infuriating it can be to have to consistently grind the same game modes. Operation Events bring something new to the game and stop things from getting too repetitive. Of course, it also helps that these events usually reward players with experience to level up too.
