pc gaming is dead in NA across all games and genres. The smurfing has literally gotten out of hand to the point many people stopped playing this past year. Valorant is getting bad too now. Kids nowadays don’t even think smurfing or stacking teams with preamdes is unsporting let alone cheating. Its actually turned into big business to the point people sell smurf accounts and all the streamers are sanctioned to smurf cause the game companies are so desperate for money they don’t mind taking some of their ad revenue. All over twitch and youtube streamers literally get the ok to cheat for content now. And again its all genres. We live in extremely fake times and I think the bombs will be dropping on us soon.
Thats just not competitive at all man. No real human player in real life would ever want to stomp noobs. Because a real human player would lose his skills doing so. It simply makes you a worse player and is nothing to brag about. The only time that would happen in real life, is to win a court if none is available, or if playing to win money;. Because in real life you can’t remain anonymous or change face.
Furthermore, the only reason RIOT allows premades, is because if they tried to create a solo only qeue, all the cheaters and smurfs would just sync drop in and undermine it by stacking and throwing games like they already do. And which RIOT i’m sure knows the history of gaming and knows this is what happened to other games who tried.
