Every single game has 1-4 fresh accounts with giga inflated mmr. Win 3 games in a row and you play with plat + emerald on a lv 30 account.
There is no good outcome when you have these guys on your team. They are either a player that is “smurfing” in the exact same elo as their main account but act toxic as fuck becuase they think they are this rank because of bad mmr or some bullshit. They can flame/int/troll how much they want and you can’t talk back because they don’t care if their 5€ account gets banned. The account costs less than 1 skin.
Or they are just complete shit silver players who got lucky first few games on the account and riot now gives them giga mmr for no reason and they get complete gapped and ruin the game.
Or you get the rare actual smurf diamond+ player who probably makes the game a one sided stomp but they will also troll instantly if their team is letting them down.
Smurfing is cringe either way but holy shit i can’t stand these guys just hopping from account to account trying to luck into the rank they want flaming/inting/trolling anytime they are not given a free win by their team.

I can agree with you, I can upvote, I can post a comment…
Just hope I have not. Riot apparently thinks smurfs make them more money than they loose due to quitting players and therefore don’t do anything about it…
I’d not be surprised if some Devs are in the bot-selling market.
They must be!Otherwise you just can’t play a single day below Dia games without thinking:
“Well that’s fucked, we have to fix it!”ive been saying this alot for along time esp when i climbed through gold along time ago, lvl 30 accounts and fresh accounts should never have the MMR of gold +
idc if someones smurfing or what but start players out as iron/bronze/low silver
idk how many people ive seen just not know what tf they are doing in ranked let alone know the basics enough to be playing ranked they just get to lvl 30 and go right into it, and those people generally go 0-10
and if its not that they are bot accounts
Riot can identify the level of the accounts. Why not, with the MMR, use it to prevent such things as fresh account ruining the game? I get it if you want to start fresh and move up from there, but then you have to play against accounts with similar level range as you. MMR + level. Ain’t that hard.
Don’t know jackshit about game dev. So I apologize if it’s not that simple.
This doesn’t even happen that often
And even if it does, regular people are as toxic as well OP
Source: I play in emerald, spectate my friends and their plat-emerald games
At the end of the day, the odds of someone with massive skill differential (think a challenger player) playing in these lobbies are nil
On the other hand, old “smurf queue” GENUINELY had challengers and grandmasters playing with people who were coming back to the game/had less than 100 ranked games per split
With how much lp you get per win honestly? You should be able to get to Diamond if you only consistently play on your main and avoid these people if they’re an issue
Unless you’re complaining as someone who’s also making a new account
The worst thing about smurfing is that your laner gets stomped and the enemy goes on to make the game unwinnable…
I never rank but I’m in the ballpark of silver 1, I que aram against/with challenger players sometimes. You can accurately predict the outcome of the match by just looking at the loading screen
Okay so then just destroy them and move on?
Oh there only getting on your team and not the enemy team? Yeah sure okay.
Btw if you want to see the bot farms in action. Queue up for a co-op vs ai on lowest difficulty and you will get a majority bot lobby everygame. Reporting does nothing, you will never ever get a report feedback on one of these accounts. Riot does not care.
