🟢 How to Get a Green Trust Factor in CS2
The Trust Factor in CS2 is a hidden player reputation score. It affects who you get matched with — legit teammates or cheaters. In this guide, you'll learn how to get a green trust factor and avoid toxic matches.
❓ What is Trust Factor
Trust Factor is a system by Valve that measures how “reliable” your account is. It looks at in-game behavior, reports, VAC bans, purchases, Steam activity, and more.
If your score is low, you'll get matched with more cheaters and toxic players. The goal is to get a green indicator, meaning your trust is high.
📈 How to Increase Trust Factor
Here’s what affects Trust Factor and how to improve it:
✅ Avoid reports — don’t spam chat or flame teammates
🎮 Play on your main account — smurfs and fresh accounts have lower trust
🛡 Don’t disable VAC — any suspicious software will lower your score
💬 Stay friendly — avoid reports for toxicity
💳 Make purchases on Steam — more value = more trust
📜 Link your phone number and enable Steam Guard
📷 Set an avatar and customize your profile
💡 Quick Tips to Speed It Up
📆 Play at least 5 matches per week — consistency helps
👥 Queuing with green-trusted friends boosts your score
🕵️♂️ Avoid trading scams or shady account activity
🔍 How to Check Your Trust Factor
Valve doesn't show it directly. But when queuing, you may see this:
“Your trust factor is significantly higher / lower than your party member’s.”
If you're constantly getting matched with cheaters, your trust is likely low.
