How many account is to many to run?

Actual question for players who have several accounts. how much is to much?

I believe in having a smurf account, fully believe that it helps as a player. Though I might be a lowly silver player doing this I have 3 accounts. The account I'm posting from being the 3rd. 1 support main account and my serious account.

Creating the support main account helped me a lot with tilt control actually and made me better as a player. Getting the account to G5 with 100w

[slayer-pantheon-thumbs] managed to climb faster as a support main. If u don't believe that you can climb then try it yourself.

This one is a one trick account yet to be ranked but still I enjoy all my accounts and playing the roles separately.

But how much is too much? should it even be done?

I know riot doesn't mind smurf accounts. I actually try to help new players as I even leveled.

What do you think?
