Something needs to honestly be done about smurfs

Seriously there is nothing enjoyable about facing someone that has way more skill then you do. I don't care about the circumstance. In rank really all it does is demoralize a player. You wonder why people are so toxic. That would be a part of the reason. Heres the result of a smurf. One the team mates give their team mate a hard time for dying so much. Not that they stood a chance to begin with and 2 its pretty much just boosting players on the smurfs team. And I really don't care how you try to spin this you don't see pro's playing high school or college players in any sport. Why because there is no entertainment value in it.

Sorry to break the news to you man but you are in bronze, where smurfs are basically non existent.

A new smurf account would have to tank many many losses on his account to get to your level, it just does not happen.

Good luck improving.

Smurfs don't exist in Bronze.

It's mainly Gold and Platinum that's infested with Smurfs.

Riot doesn't care. Smurfs are potential sales figures increasing.

Although noone enjoys smurfs The reason they exist is cuz they want to dominate certain elo and play the game on an easy mode since they are where they wanted to be on their main Which actually gives Riot more active accounts, that could potentially lead to a smurf buying skins for the champ they main, which means money, which means Riot = happy

How exactly do you fix an issue like that? They cannot even come up with a fair punishment system

I wouldn't be surprised if the matchmaking is actually made to work as it should, but due to so many smurfs and trolls it cannot determine the MMR properly and matches you with lower elo by mistake

Do not hate on me this is just my opinion and a bit of frustration leaving my head

Smurf Ruin Rank completely.

Lets make everyone in the 1st-4th Grade be graded on a Bell with 8th-12th graders in their class.

It's seems pathetic to want to smash players you know are worse than you. How bad must your self-confidence be if you enjoy doing that? What is the point of leveling up another account? You already know you can do it. It hurts the game for everyone. If you are that bored, go find something else to do.
