Below level 10

Techno4K and bLitz were still below level 10

FACEIT shows each pro's level in every match. Most of today's stars were already level 10 by the time it shows, so pros meeting below 10 is rare: Techno4K and bLitz did it 23 times between Sep 2019 and Dec 2019, in CS:GO 5v5, eXTREMESLAND 2019 MN open qualifier-4, CS:GO WESG 2019-2020 MN Open Qualifier-1.

Were you ever in the same lobby as a pro?

Scan your whole FACEIT history, CS2 and CS:GO, and find every pro you've played with or against.

Data: samelobby.gg's pro lobby database, every FACEIT match of 1,000 pros read from FACEIT's match history (it begins in December 2016 and shows few levels before 2019), up to 2 Oct 2026. Pugs are FACEIT's queues, FPL and hubs; leagues, cups, qualifiers and "Team vs Team" rooms count as official matches and are left out of the records. Ages come from Liquipedia birth dates, teams from Liquipedia's team histories (CC-BY-SA 3.0), and "well known" from the length of a pro's Liquipedia page. 1v1 and 2v2 hubs are left out.
