What does it mean when your main is a lower elo than your smurf?

Are you boosted/in a rank you don't deserve, or should you be playing in a level much higher than what your main says?

Then your main is smurf.

It all depends on ELO man. If your main is silver 3 for example and your smurf silver 2, it doesnt mean much. But if your main is gold 1 and your smurf is Diamond V, then it means you play under more pressure on your main and underperform there.

It could mean that you play better when you're relaxed/having fun (I'm assuming you were a bit casual on your smurf).

It could also just be the luck of the draw. Maybe you got stuck with more trolls/toxics/feeders/afks on your main and less on your smurf. Seems that makes more difference than anything else in this dynamic queue season.

It's the latter, when ur on ur main you have to deal with the negative elo from when you were still anoob, on a smurf u don't make those same mistakes.
