Here is a fully customized, NA-West optimized, evening + late-night, solo/duo min-max ranking plan designed around the same principles the #1 NA player described, but adapted to your constraints. This plan will maximize win-rate, minimize cheater exposure, and give you predictable match quality without needing a 5-stack or daytime queues.
⭐ YOUR CUSTOM RANK-UP STRATEGY (NA WEST – EVENING/LATE NIGHT – SOLO/DUO)
🎯 1. Your Best Queue Windows
Since you can’t queue mornings (the safest), the goal is to target the least bad evening/night windows.
Optimal windows:
• 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM (PST) → fewer DGEN grinders and fewer cheaters.
• 11:30 PM – 1:30 AM (PST) → many cheaters drop off, population stabilizes.
• 8:45 PM – 11:00 PM (PST) → peak cheaters, smurfs, 5-stacks, “DGEN queue.”
• 1:45 AM – 3:30 AM (PST) → low population, mixed MMR, red-trust-factor lobbies.
🎛️ 2. Queue Pop Timing Rules
Accept matches only if queue time is 2 minutes or longer.
Why 2 minutes? Evening/night NA West has more players online, so 3 minutes (like the #1 NA player used) would cause too many dodges.
Rules for you:
• Queue pop <2:00 → Cancel
• Queue pop 2:00–4:30 → Accept (ideal)
• Queue pop >5:00 → Accept with caution
Set your max ping to 30–45ms. This keeps you on:
• Los Angeles
• San Jose
• Seattle
These servers have more stable populations and fewer cheaters at night.
Avoid Central servers (Chicago, Dallas) which become smurf/cheater-dense late.
🤝 4. Team Composition (Solo/Duo)
If duo: choose a stable partner with similar ELO and trust factor.
If solo: dodge lobbies where you see suspicious profiles, repeated cheaters, or instant pops under 2 minutes.
🧠 5. Anti-Cheater Detection Routine
Dodge if you see: no inventory + private profile, 3–5 stacks vs your solo, known cheater names, ping swings, or new medals with 80%+ HS%.
Evenings (Mon–Thurs):
• Play: 6:00–8:30 PM
• Avoid: 8:45–11:00 PM
• Optional: 11:30 PM–1:30 AM
Weekends:
• Play: 6:00–8:00 PM
• Avoid: 9–11 PM
• Chill late-night session: 12:00–1:30 AM
🔥 7. Tilt/Streak Rules
• Stop after 2 losses.
• Stop after 4 games where 50%+ of the lobby seems “sus.”
• After 3 wins in a row → take a break to protect trust factor.
