CS2 Commends: How They Work and Where to Buy Them

Straight facts about Friendly, Teacher and Leader commends: what they change, what they don't, and how buying them from our partner store CS2Commends works.

Affiliate link: we earn a commission if you buy through it. We are not affiliated with Valve or Steam.

Three types

Friendly, Teacher and Leader. The totals show on your in-game CS2 profile.

No rank or XP effect

Premier rating, ranks, XP and weekly drops don't depend on commends.

Trust Factor: unconfirmed

Valve doesn't publish what affects Trust Factor, and nobody can check their score.

Real ones come from players

Teammates can commend you at no cost. We don't sell or give away commends ourselves.

Commend split calculator

One commend can include Friendly, Teacher and Leader at once, so CS2Commends takes the highest of the three numbers from your token, not the sum.

How buying commends works

1

Buy a token pack

The CS2Commends store sells packs from 50 to 15,000 commends. The token is delivered to your email after payment.

2

Redeem the token

On the CS2Commends website, enter the token plus the Steam profile link or friend code of the account that should get the commends. It does not ask for a Steam login.

3

Choose the split

Pick how many Friendly, Teacher and Leader commends you want. The highest of the three numbers is taken from your token.

4

Wait for delivery

Commends arrive gradually. CS2Commends states a rate of up to ~20 per 5 minutes and shows the job's progress on its site.

cs2hype.com doesn't sell commends or run any bots. Orders, delivery and support are handled by CS2Commends.

What commends do, and what they don't

Commends do

Add to the Friendly, Teacher or Leader counter on your in-game CS2 profile.

Cover all three categories at once: one commend can tick Friendly, Teacher and Leader.

Commends don't

Change your Premier rating or Competitive rank. Those move with your match results.

Give XP, items or weekly drops. They are counters, nothing more.

Not confirmed

That they improve Trust Factor. Valve has never said so, and nobody can check their score.

What Valve says about Trust Factor, VAC and bots

Quoted word for word from Valve's own pages, so you don't have to take a seller's word (or ours) for it.

Trust Factor inputs

Checking your Trust Factor

“Currently there is no way to check your Trust Factor.”

Improving it

“The only way to improve your Trust Factor is to be a positive member of the Counter-Strike 2 and Steam community.”

Factors Valve names

“Phone numbers and Counter-Strike 2 Rank are among the factors used in the new Trust Factor matchmaking system.”

Steam Support: CS2 Trust Factor Matchmaking

What VAC looks for

“VAC stands for Valve Anti-Cheat, an automated system designed to detect cheats installed on users' computers.”

Steam Support: Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) System

Rule: do not manipulate Steam

“Examples of such prohibited behavior include: […] artificially manipulating Steam reviews or other content; and automatically generating Steam accounts.”

Steam Online Conduct

What that means for bought commends: they are sent from other Steam accounts, so nothing is installed on your PC for VAC to find. But commend services run on many bot-controlled accounts, Steam's rules prohibit artificially manipulating Steam content, and Valve has never said bought commends are safe. Nobody, including us or any seller, can honestly promise zero risk. Only buy them if you accept that.

CS2 commends FAQ

Commends are positive ratings players give each other in Counter-Strike 2. There are three kinds: Friendly, Teacher and Leader. Each one adds to a counter on the player's in-game CS2 profile.
