League of Legends Smurfing Problem

As the title of this would imply, this post is about smurfing. But before you down vote this to hell, let me start off by saying that this not me just being salty about losing to smurfs I fully realize that losing is just part of learning the game and that you can also learn from said losses.

First and foremost I'll start off by saying that I am only lvl 24... so not that good. I'm making good progress at learning roles/champs but I am still what one would call a noob.

Recently I've been constantly getting matched up against very high level smurfs (Silver or better.) and this is making the game very hard to play. Not only because I'm expected to compete with these high level players but because also because I tend to get flamed after feeding them, when realistically, I didn't have much of a chance in lane to begin with as I am still new to the game. This is taking away all the fun from an already difficult game that I am still learning how to play well.

Next issue: This may just be the smurfs I have played against but I often see the smurfs completely BM'ing my team in the all chat, which only takes more fun out of the game by adding insult to injury.

It would be pretty pointless to post this without some sort of solution to this. So if you ARE you to smurf or Q up with a low lever player or smurf accnt don't just stomp the other team and then say gg in post game chat, at the very least you could offer constitutive feedback or criticism, rather that just stomping, try to help them, because you were in their shoes before, you were the guy who bought shiv on Annie and Void Staff on ashe.

Lastly I would like to end all of this by saying that although smurfing may be fun for the player because you get to stomp low level players and carry teams, it takes every bit of fun away from the other team who is most likely still trying to learn the game and get better.

Thank you for reading, please feel free to leave feedback below.

People who are gonna badmouthing others are going to do that no matter what.

  1. I got a smurf account and I don't say anything except I ask what everyone's lvl is (I assume they're being honest) but when people start talked you can tell it's a smurf. Some new players know or watched some championship lvl players but they don't act like them . What I'm saying is unless you mute them, or Riot change the Elo/mmr system that determines how players are Rated, toxic smurfs probably hates elohell and want to start new so they are raging or has main acc banned, both are indications that they're just toxic as a whole.
