How to fix Faceit not working
Faceit is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Check the official status page
Open the official status page and help centre; if either lists an outage, wait for a fix. When both are quiet, the fault is local.
Restart the browser and router
Close the Faceit tab and the game, then unplug your router for thirty seconds and plug it back in. Sign in again once the connection returns, because a stale session or a bad route can block matchmaking.
Clear browser cookies for Faceit
In your browser settings, find cookies and site data, then remove entries for the site. Reload the page and sign in. This fixes login loops and match page errors.
Reinstall Faceit Anti-Cheat
Quit the game and close your browser. In Windows, open Settings > Apps > Installed apps, find the anti-cheat, and uninstall it. Download it again from a match page, install, then restart your PC and try to join a match.
While Faceit is down: what to use instead
- In-game matchmaking Use CS2 Premier or Dota 2 ranked when Faceit queues stall.
- ESL Play If you still want organized competition and do not mind a different account, ESL Play runs tournaments and ladders for several titles while the service is unavailable.
- Steam server browser Jump into community servers through Steam for casual CS2 games.
- Official status page Check the official status page to confirm the outage is on their end before you spend time switching to another platform.

What happens when Faceit goes down
Faceit is a competitive matchmaking platform for games such as Counter-Strike 2 and Dota 2, and if you are on it, you are there for ranked ladders and daily queues. Every outage lands in the same two places: the queue, and the match you were already playing.
The queue breaks first. The match search spins without filling, or it fills and the room never opens, so you sit in a lobby that refuses to load. Deeper in, the server handoff drags and the anti-cheat client stalls at launch. Most of these failures stay partial: a single region or one game can fail while the rest of the service answers normally, and sign-in problems tend to hit in the same bursts.

How we track Faceit
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Faceit, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Faceit, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Faceit's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
