This game is no fun for new players

So I am smurfing to learn ADC a role I have maybe played 50 time sin the 4k games I have, but every game I play is full of smurfs or sometimes even just platinum players.

My main is Plat 4, but when I play ADC I am more or less bronze, because I just rarely played the role, but it is no fun at all when enemy Lee platinum 5 main Lee Sin goes 30/2/10 if you are practicing a new role, but even worse when you are a new player there is no way this game is appealing in any way if you get rofl stomped like that.

smurfs are put into a different queue and do not represent the experience of legitimate new players

Only once the system detects that you're smurfing. If you purposely play bad your first few games, you'll then be matched with legitimate newbies, and will probably ruin their day.

99% of the time, it's banned players who make new accounts. They're extra salty too because they were banned, so they take it out on new players in smurf games.

I played a smurf game not too long ago, and it was blatantly obvious one teammate was obviously a smurf, and was obviously salty that he just got banned and was now having a bad game vs a potentially new player. He tilted himself so much that when our Evelynn tried to set up a gank for him, he just said "Feeding.", and proceeded to run down mid the rest of the game.

He pretended to not know what 'main account' meant and kept saying 'I am a brand new player. I don't know what a "main" is.' while still running down mid. I was actually pretty amused with how hard he was trying to cover up the fact he was just banned and actually found his antics pretty funny even though he was being a jerk. Me and Eve were fed enough to win anyway and he eventually calmed down and stopped feeding.
