Can we have some kind of filter for veterans?

Ok, i just recently made a new account for my friend and leveling up that account. And i notice there a lots of new player that don't even know what ward is. And of course i destroy them and carried hard, but after that i few it kinda harsh on newbie. I mean they don't even know how play and there people making new account and destroying the newbie. And nobody like like playing a game where you can only wait for the time until you respawn. So i'm suggest there be something like a button that you can choose that shown you played this game before and matching you with people that are smurfing. I think that will make the newbie decide if they like the game or not, without getting killed by smurf.

I think he's suggesting some sort of option when you create the account that says "I'm already a level 30 player on my main account" as a voluntary sorting system to keep the real noobs a little safer.

I don't think people would be honest with this.

Why lying? the only reason people smurfing is to get better rank, not playing with newbie

I only made a smurf account to learn jungling, since I did 1-30 with Bots, and normals isn't very friendly to jungle beginners.

Even if you try applying an IP tracker, what about individuals in the same household? Or those that have the knowledge to setup a VPN to bypass any IPs linked to your home account?

You can't rely on someone being honest and saying their level 30's already.

If you have a method that is viable, I'd love to hear it.

Hmm true it hard for the people on the internet to be honest. But if we use the old " carrot and stick " method . So if people when making smurf account and said that they are level 30, riot can asks what their real account is and you will get an award like some of your main champs for free. So if people like you want to practice farming or jg, they could get some champ they need without buying them, which leads to they, the smurf, more easily achieving their goal. The stick here is you have to play with bot to a certain lv.

what do you think?

Making a new account for a friend (presumably to give them the account afterwards) is against the Terms. You can get both that account and your main banned for doing that.
