Holy fuck leveling an account has to be the worst experience this game has to offer.

I'm level 3, first blind pick of my life as a new player and the game is 43/5 because they have 5 fucking people on the other team who are smurfing.

Really fun and exciting for new players to just get smashed completely because there isnt a system implemented to queue smurfs with smurfs. I literally just kept running it down mid just so I didn't get a leaver buster because they got 30 kills before the fucking 16 minute mark. My head is legit in my hands from how pathetic this is, like what is going on with this?

Seriously though, why can't you guys make a "I'm experienced at League" button whenever you create your summoner name or something like that? Sort of how Runescape does it, they give you 3 options, being "I've played very recently", "I've played before but it's been a while" or "I've never played before". It's not that hard, any smurf in their right mind is going to chose option A and any new player is going to chose option C.

There is a mmr system but all the accounts were probably very low level so will take a little bit to place them in there proper mmr.

Essentially you got unlucky and got some brand new Smurfs that didn't have enough games yet to raise there mmr above yours (starting mmr is around 1500)

yeah, it's suffering... I think most league players did it with a friend or just played bots till level 20

let's say the grind builds character lol

removing it would probably lead to more smurfing though

Not all smurfs are equal. If you get a ranked high elo smurf and they have a bunch of lvl 30 non ranked smurfs or low elo smurfs you will probably still win. Pre lvl 30 most games are often decided by one extraordinary player (in comparison to the rest of the players in that particular game.)

Not that I'm promoting buying an account.

But.

I mean you yourself are smurfing.
