Data that shows true state of the game - smurfs / boosters in 95% of Silver / Gold games

In Gold / Silver, when the game starts, the only question is: who has more (better) smurfs / boosters on their side. Actual new or low-level players are the vast minority.

Riot has data on this, of course, but doesn't publish it - or have YOU seen any "how many people actually play" data recently? Of course not... since it shows that all the accounts are from the same people who smurf / boost all day.

And while it is technically simple to get rid of these accounts, for obvious (money) reasons, Riot does not want to. Better have ANYBODY play, right?

An argument without a source is a story.

While would you get rid of smurfs ? It's not forbidden to have multiples accounts. I, myself have 4.

Claims there is actual data that proves his saying

The vast majority of players are in silver so how can 95% of them be boosters or Smurfs?

This is extraordinarily inaccurate. Look at it this way. Diamond+ is roughly 2% of the community. Even if every single Diamond+ player logged on to a smurf at the exact same time (which is absurdly unlikely in and of itself), it would STILL be mathematically impossible for one to be "in 95% of Silver/Gold games"

Without any actual evidence you're as plausible as people who think lizard people control our government. I don't see what's the point of posting if you aren't willing to show any of your "proof."

Shameless hyperbole.

The problem is not as big as you make it out to be, you're clearly biased.
