Why, because a dev is making a nice little joke? The thing is there can hardly be anything done against smurfs even if you exclude them until a certain lvl. Even if theres lets say a lvl 20 cap most players can reach that in 1 or 2 days.Dreiga wrote:This is the reason why the game's playerbase is dying.

I think there is some insight in what Dreiga and Joker have said, it really is an issue that has pretty much been ignored from the beginning. Increasing the minimum CSR gained from a ranked win would be a bandage to the situation of gaining 30 CSR in 30 games and losing all of that to one loss to a smurf, although I'm just spitballing. Even if that deflates the "prestige" that comes from ranking highly, I think that's better than having a majority of the players resigning to the fact that there is little to no point to trying to win games and rank up.PanikKiller 13 wrote:Why, because a dev is making a nice little joke?

I literally just gain 1 point per win now, unless its against full team of champs. Its easy to say "it's just a game". But its a pretty stupid thing to say too ☹️Dreiga wrote:Especially in 2v2/3v3. Have fun losing 30 points to champions because they have a smurf account in their team while you gain 3 points per win.
Boosting with smurfs is a serious and well known issue and the only thing we get from the devs is a "nice little joke".PanikKiller 13 wrote:Why, because a dev is making a nice little joke?

Instead of compaining about this is -Yoink-, that is -Yoink-, thats broken - fix it, you could actually give some ideas in how to fix or at least bandaid this but for my part i have no idea other than a rank restriction for ranks whic doesnt help that much imo.Dreiga wrote:Boosting with smurfs is a serious and well known issue and the only thing we get from the devs is a "nice little joke".PanikKiller 13 wrote:Why, because a dev is making a nice little joke?

I get that it's difficult to do something, but letting cheaters destroy ranked playlists for the rest of the community is neither an option.
The only ideas I have are either a level cap or banning all players who use smurfs to boost their rank.PanikKiller 13 wrote:Instead of compaining about this is -Yoink-, that is -Yoink-, thats broken - fix it, you could actually give some ideas in how to fix or at least bandaid this but for my part i have no idea other than a rank restriction for ranks whic doesnt help that much imo.Dreiga wrote:Boosting with smurfs is a serious and well known issue and the only thing we get from the devs is a "nice little joke".PanikKiller 13 wrote:Why, because a dev is making a nice little joke?

Toxic posts like yours are the reason why discussions happen to be quite inefficient in this forum.l Hagen l wrote:"omg I lost my precious points"
scrub mentality is strong in here.
You shouldn't worry about your stupid rank. Worry about how to beat those smurfs. You don't learn anything from complaining.
"the match making system should find a equally strong opponent, otherwise I will never play this DEAD game again"
If I had to choose between facing a stronger opponent, that I might be able to learn from or waiting 10 hours in a lobby to find a match vs somebody equal, I'd choose the first.
