First of all, i play alot of 3v3in europe, the amount of players playing 3vs3 is smaller and i often play multible times against and with the same randoms. and i just played against some people who wanted to grab some easier wins. They are high elo players playing on low elo accounts, but 1 of them is playing on his main.

Means, the plat 5 account, plays with a dia 3 account, while in truth the plat 5 player is also dia 3. But thx to the matchmaking, they will get only plat 2 oder dia 5 oppnents. Easy way to rank up, and nothing wrong with it right? the smurfing account is just ranking up his smurf. Riot allows anyone to have smurfs and play on them. And he just happened to play with his friend who plays on his main account. Ive seen this now more than a hundred times. And im not joking, ive got probably almost 10k games. In my opinion its not fair, its cheating. I reported alot of them, but nothing happened. And nothing would happen in the same season. THose 90% winrate new gold 3 accounts. just happen to play with their plat 1 premade to give him easy games to get diamond. Nice, easy for them. And absolutely no fun for the enemies. Since namecalling is forbidden, i cant write down the 30 accounts i got. Ofc, someday the smurf account will have a high mmr, but this doesnt happen fast enough. But when it happened, its rdy for wintrading. You just queue up with your premade at the same time and when your are lucky you are in the enemy team and can go soraka jungle for some easy games for your premade. you can make it more obvious or not. In 5vs5 this is harder to perform cuz there are so many players queueing up. But its not impossible, when seen alot of cases and it gets easier the higher the elo is, cuz there will be less and less players to play on a high rank. So in conclusion, its easier to get high rank with the low elo smurf account boosting your main, and then in gets easier to wintrade afterwards.

And one more thing, i play alot of 3vs3 and there are waaaaaaaaaaaay less players then in 5vs5. So getting matched up against your premade is even easier. Now i heard from a reliable source that wintrading does get punished sometimes, but it takes months and it ruins the Season you are currently playing in. They also dont get permabanned, they just get their rewards stripped off. But i still encounter alot of new low elo gold 5 accounts who just happen to play with their platin 1 premade and its simply not fair and made me quit league today. especially at the end of the season they go all out and i dont see a way to win against those really unfair matchups, even though i play better than them individually, everything has its limit. Im not the Number one challernger, but even the top challenger there boosted themselves up with smurf accounts.

So, is it ok to play on a low account and rank up with your mates to get easier opponents?
