I've been playing the game for about two weeks now, but I have a lengthy history with CS:GO. I've been placed in Iron, and climbed to Bronze 3.

With that being said, I'm constantly in games where enemy team just one taps or bursts me down in micro seconds. I know how low elos of an FPS should look like, and this isn't it. It doesn't feel like I'm against players of low ranks at all.

What is the case here? Smurfing is rampant in the game or the player base are just that good?

The only reason I felt compelled to open a post about it is that it feels discoursing as a new players trying to the hang of things.

The reactions here at this elo are not what they should be. Bronze players shouldn't just Deeg one tap in a blink of an eye.

What the hell?
