I'm trying to play premier (new to CS2), and queuing pretty early in the morning (7-8am EST). Avg queue time is over 7 minutes and when I finally get a game, it's in California. It doesn't help that there's a 20k elo player on enemy team, and another guy who has a .5 KD ratio (data from CSRep) magically gets 25 kills by the end of the game. Are there just no servers in the eastern US? Also does matchmaking get better once I'm placed into a rank?
