Level 10-ish game, 1v2'd bot lane, but some of you have the audacity to say smurfing isn't an issue for new players? It completely ruins the learning curve for them.

I wonder how people like you survived when games didn't even have matchmaking. When you had to jump into a random server and there was about a 75% chance that at least two or three of the people you were playing with had played the game 10 times as long as you had and were vastly better than you on every single level.

I think back to my days of playing Halo on PC, back in 2003 or so, where I would get my brains blown out from across the map by players with over a thousand hours using just the m6 pistol.

And then I look at your posts, and I feel nothing.

Lvling up from lvls 1-30, half the time you're not playing vs new players. So this is really just fringed cases and mostly bronze-silvers lvling new accounts to "escape" elo hell.

It really isnt. In a level or 2 more you will be playing with 9 other smurfs.

If its one thing i can say is riots smurf detection is actually pretty good.

I my self was playing against full teams of smurfs by level 5

If Riot didnt ban players so fast over a "youre bad lol", then you wouldnt see many smurfs. Riot thinks banning people stops them from playing, but in reality it just makes them more toxic than before.

Not a SINGLE pure armor item on your team.

AND NO NINJA TABIS on your team....

You get better from playing against better opponents, so the idea that they miss out on learning is not true

For future reference: It is very easy to find your username having even one username of anyone who played a game with you.

Going to a site such as http://na.op.gg/na Searching for the summoner name of "Xezzy" your Teemo I can then find the game with the same team composition as what's listed in the screenshot. Your summoner name is Alpha T1.

It'd be better to cross out all names.

It reminds me strangely of another player why the name of Tyler1, a Draven one-trick, who calls himself "Alpha" and likes to "Run it down mid". No relation?
