Boosting in Lower Tiers
I just got out of a pubstomp by 2 diamond smurf accounts. They admitted their original tier. Their buddy, the adc, did nothing spectacular; however, their top and mid proceeded to completely stomp the ever loving crap out of me and my team.
Why were they doing this? Because they were too high ranked to play with their friends.
Some of us are gated to our tiers and experiences by subpar gaming equipment, not enough time to commit to playing, watching streamers, or practicing key mechanics. So why should we be punished when we show genuine improvement and get matched against some boosting smurf and his bronze 2 pals.
I'm on a toaster of a laptop trying to scrape some enjoyment out of my gold competitive experience while finishing school. The few times I'm capable of jumping on and try to dedicate a couple hours to ranked, I would really rather some true competitive matches, as opposed to being pubstomped by some 2-bit diamond 2 yas on his 5 thousand dollar gaming rig bought by mom and dad while he flunks out of his first semester of college. Rito, show some love to players of all tiers. Some of us are proud that we at least made it to gold and enjoy the equal competition we, hopefully, find there.
