Like, when someone is very obviously smurfing -- is that reportable?

picture this.

you have a professional soccer player. playing on a team of middle-school kids in some placement matches (regional, state, whatever) and being allowed to do so without any consequences and being allowed to even.

now, please find the words to tell me that this is fair.

the thing is, that's pretty much what the game has become. you're ALWAYS at risk of fighting against smurfs and possible duos/trios/quads/full premades with the way dynamic queue works, even when you queue up solo

You're NEVER safe, which only encourages people to start HAVING to play with premades in order to get anywhere.

League is now a gang war between who has the higher ranked smurf premade.

It's dangerous to go alone, take this. http://suciwinarti.info/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/smurf_large_clipart.jpg

there is no way to absolutely prove that it is a smurf. Riot allows smurf, probably unofficially. Every pro player has one to try new stuff on. You watch a twitch stream, all of them have smurf accounts that they will switch between on their stream. There is no way to do away with them.

Also it is not a Problem unless you are Platinum. Diamond+ Smurfs will usually win all their Placements games and end up in Plat+. However in Plat I always gets them during my promos in the opponents Team. Seems like a curse.
