Reporting all smurfs as gameplay sabotage

Because getting rolled by a lvl 75 genji or tracer isn’t fun, and they shouldn’t be at my rank

you want a dead game? you got it blizz, enjoy

Of course, let’s report everyone much better than ourselves (because obviously they are all smurfs and they cannot be just talented people or good players). That way we will rid the game of smurfs and, in the process, transform it into a wasteland were only unlucky and untalented people can play.

99% of the people who are level 30 have 80%+ win rate, incredible stats and play characters who are not your traditional FPS guys like Genji are smurfs. You cant slice it any other way.

The only people who try to protect smufs have smurfs themselves, it tells you everything.

Wait, are we talking about downrankers or alt-accounts who play genuinely?

this is gonna show them.

Git gud, because no game company out there will ever even try to hamper their own sales, due to crybabies like you (neither do they have technical methods to prevent smurfing)

I run into this couple of times where smurfs intentionally throwing in the first round of a game then in second one they activate themselves and pwn everyone.

As I stated the only way to get rid of smurfs is to increase the price of OW to a point it does not worth to buy mutiple accounts eg: 200 EUR per OW acc.

Smurfs are the consequences of multiple random bans by blizzard, it’s their business

And you got your statistic from where exactly? There is 0 way to effectively,100% prove, somebody is smurfing without or beyond doubt.

furthermore, blizz doesn’t view smurfs as problematic because they’ll get to where they need to be.

if they’re throwing to stay in a low (read: easier) elo, then they’re throwers and them being smurfs is irrelevant.

Wrong, wrong and wrong again.

Of course there is a way to effectively prove it, the guy cant be this good out of nowhere and be new. Not when the game has been out for years and on sale 20+ times. Its called common sense.

They don’t view them as problematic because they give them money. If the game was F2P smurfs would have been a problem but no, they pay to ruin games so they get a free pass.

They wont get where they need to be that fast. First off it doesn’t matter how good you are, you will land somewhere in platinum and crush games to get to your true rank. Next, it gets even worse in diamond where personal performance doesn’t matter anymore. How is smurf going to get quickly where he belongs, in GM or top500 when he gets 25 points like eveyone else?

Finally they don’t have to throw to stay at low SR, all they need to do is to play a character they are not good at then when they feel like it switch to their main and destroy the opposition, therefore they are untouchable.

Lastly you don’t even play competitive, why are you talking about something you have 0 knowledge of?

%90 of smurfs I met are toxic to the bone, they use those accounts to spread toxicity. Report them with every possible way.

If they have 80 % winrate, they will be out of your rank in a few games.
So calm down and enjoy the game.

You wont see again most of the people you play with anyway. But new ones keep coming and coming and coming. One of my most horrific experiences was playing against 3 smurfs 2 weeks ago while having a 2 smurf party on my team. The 2 smurf party were of course a-holes, meanwhile one of the 3 smurfs on the enemy team was a 40 level diamond who picked Ashe and was on fire for like 85% of the match.

So yes, calm down, the game is already bad enough what are some more crappy games, hmmm

Then the next step is to stop playing this game.
Why someone would spent time on a game that is bad.

Oh trust me I play way less than before. 1 time a week, maybe 1 time in two weeks.

Smurfs are a huge financial gain for blizzard, it makes our favorite game alive, don’t be unhappy, if you can still play this game it’s because of its rentability…

The only thing you get out of that is, you might end up being banned in the end for false reporting. Smurfing is not a bannable offense.

So the fact that, when i bought this game, i placed rank 67, which is GM equivelant from my placements alone, doesn´t prove that people can be good from other games.

I came from CS:GO being, that i had 3 accouts in Global Elite. Stop the ilogical sentences about, what you can and cannot know.

BTW i was barely level 50 as far as i remember.

This doesn’t mean anything, it was season one, people placed 75+. Like are you seriously trying to give this as an argument?

downrakers

i have no problem people using alt accounts to try new heros, but the moment they switch off rein to genji because they are getting rolled and start rolling us… then its a smurf and its gameplay sabotage because they shouldn’t be at that rank with genji

so if they can refrain from being a butthurt weeb who can’t handle loosing and keep to their “new heros” then i haven’t got a problem… but that doesn’t happen
