So, at the end of the match as we surrendered, Sivir said "smurf btw" and in the post game, you can see the enemy team proceeds to talk a ton of trash. The way Olaf talked he was probably a smurf as well, but this is prime example of the toxic state of the game. You don't take a hardline stance against smurfs and it ruins the ladders. And even when you do, you don't have any way to enforce it beyond hopefully smashing the report button enough times to get the smurf banned for grieving. As an aside, why is there not more done to fix the people who aren't being punished, when they clearly want to do nothing but talk smack and be toxic beyond words? I get reported because someone feels salty at me for what I say, but then behavior like this where it's blatantly toxic, telling someone to quit the game because they have a bad match with a bad team?

This game is a joke.

IMHO, you were the most toxic player in those chatlogs.

Smurfing isn't bannable, because they don't 'ruin the ladder'. The chances of you actually playing with a smurf is quite low.

Also because tracking smurfs is almost 100% impossible.

And even when you do play against a smurf, if you can't beat them, then what do you think will happen when you climb? If you climb, you'll still be playing against more difficult players.

In that chatlog you were just being an asshole towards your teammates and you were blaming them for losing the game. Meanwhile, you were 0/8. Arguably, you did the worst on your team and yet you're still blaming your teammates for your loss.

I'm just stating my honest opinion here.
