What is this riot?

Can anyone explain how in the world unranked or pre 30(between level 26-29) people including myself is queue-ing with platinums, diamonds,masters, and challenger constantly? I am totally unsure of this fucked up matching system.

You aren't queuing with masters or challengers.

Is this a smurf account?

You can visit my na.op.gg and check my match ups. I got challenger top once, two games with masters, and diamonds and platinums most likely. I did get to play with pre 30s and gold players but this phenomenon is very unusual.

Ight, I stand corrected on that point.

Didn't answer my question though: is this a smurf account?

Yes it is my secondary, but my main is perm banned long time ago.

But I mean is having a secondary really matters tho? I have another level 30 account and played a couple of ranked games(placement games) and all I got was silver and gold players.

Wow you are. U play with friends or playing smurf? Probably a bug.

No I only played solo normal queue. Yea maybe it's a bug because you can't really tell if unranked or pre 30 players are smurfing or wut.

It's because Riot is prepping for the post level 30 world of matchmaking. Right now level 30 is just level 30 and can be matched against anyone level 20 onwards it seems like.

That what I was expecting actually. But every single game I play(doesnt have 20 champions so only normals) I have diamonds and platinums on enemy team??? You know silvers and golds are definitely outnumbering high elo players.
