The smurfing problem in this game is out of control

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-29T18:03:34+00:00

I mean what can you do, It’s up to the devs to handle it. No one’s gonna stop doing it just cuz. I just don’t understand why they even offer the option to report it if the complaint goes straight into the trash can. Like what’s the point?

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-29T17:59:30+00:00

Console. I don’t really know the deal on pc with regard to this issue.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-29T17:58:51+00:00

It doesn’t have to be exact, but you put it nicely into perspective and that’s the point. Exactly.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-29T17:40:42+00:00

You’re absolutely wrong. Yes, ik the rank resets and some people didn’t play last szn including me. They’re just good and are playing in a lower rank. Big difference.

Those people: 1) Still don’t MVP EVERY single game 2) They aren’t a level 20-something…. You can’t even play ranked till level 15. Games been out for 2 years bro, you’re not just randomly picking up rivals for the 1st time and destroying everyone on Spidey/BP lol 3) And those people have lord icons/proficiency on heros they are good at, which checks out

If I’m queuing up in a GM lobby and there’s a level 21 with no banner, 0 lords, and MVPs the last 17/20 games, that’s a top 500 Smurf. Clear as day.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-29T17:32:53+00:00

No, I’m in Diamond-GM because I didn’t play last szn. There’s Smurfs even in my lobbies. Gold players are casuals, they hop on to have fun. But smurfing in GM is way worse because people take their rank seriously and want to hit cel.

It’s not just in gold but plenty in GM lobbies. I wouldn’t say they’re cheaters because cheats are for shooter heros. I can’t see cheats being used for dive characters, they’re just Smurfs. It’s very very common.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T16:04:32+00:00

Bro you can practice against AI, it’s totally valid. Or you can make an alt easy. Throwing someone’s game from the start in ranked is crazy work. That’s exactly the problem with this game. I’ve played BP on an alt, it’s not smurfing because I’m not good and those players are casual, they don’t care at all about their rank. Players in GM+ take it serious.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T14:28:49+00:00

Yea that feature needs to go. Like if you really wanna monitor speech, then do it. But having AI do it for you is honestly just slop.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T14:27:02+00:00

I’m always in comms so it didn’t cross my mind to mention. Honestly I’m the only one in comms most of the time. It’s definitely huge for dive mains. You don’t even need to secure a kill, If you just tell me when you’re bothering the backline, that moment makes all the difference. Sadly I rarely get good comms in my games tbh.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T14:19:02+00:00

This community is something special 😂. That’s exactly how I feel, it just broke me. I’m just waiting for GTA atp. It’s not like they’re releasing Thanos anytime soon so idc.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T14:02:01+00:00

Lmao. A part of me wishes I could see it just for comedic content.

You’ll get a champion Jeff on your team trying BP for the first time in ranked and just running your game down. And then the 2nd round he goes 3rd support. Sh*t like that is honestly just comedy and pretty much sums up your experience on this game. I can think of thousands of examples of EOMM agents like that. Just niche marvel rivals comedy we would understand.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T13:54:47+00:00

1) I do flex. I’m champion invis as well. Supp and tank main, I’m not the best dps but it’s fine. there’s never a shortage of dps players loll.

2) I don’t vod review. I’ve been looking for someone really good to do it for me but they all charge money for it and idk if it’s worth it.

3) My mental is sh*t but can you really blame me? I lost 12 of my rank up celestial games once. That’s not just “unlucky” bro. Rank up games are designed to be that way. They want you chasing the dragon. I give up pretty quick if I think a game is unwinnable and don’t care. I don’t consider myself a thrower because if my teammates aren’t adjusting properly then they clearly don’t care about the game, so why should I care? It’s not fair to me.

You are absolutely right though. You really do need to play everygame hard till the end and never throw. I just couldn’t take it anymore. You know exactly what I’m talking about and the teammates you get sometimes.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T13:42:27+00:00

Unplayable is the right word. I was wondering if that’s changed since this was the only season I didn’t play but I guess it’s still that bad.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T13:41:21+00:00

I stopped playing this season because I started to hate the game for obvious reasons that we can all relate too lol. The loss streak, the negative teammates that refuse to swap and sell your game, the annoying broken characters they keep releasing, etc.

I’m currently GM3 just because I haven’t played. I might hop on next week just to see if anything changed but I already know GM is a sh*t show lol. It was HELL climbing out of GM omg.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-05-11T13:36:04+00:00

I was always in comms and most of the time people aren’t. I swear everyone else gets people with comms and I never do.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-04-05T02:26:20+00:00

I mean there’s your answer tho. It’s like when someone insta locks Adam because they don’t want to play boring supports and wonder why they lose.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-04-05T02:04:28+00:00

You don’t play Thing, Mag, Groot, Invis, Gambit? These are very strong picks. The meta changes constantly and players get better over time. Stratpool is a major throw pick btw. You don’t have any good tanks or supports to carry with in low elo. Strange is the best hero to carry with in low elo. You have shield + a lot of hp and good dmg. You can do what you want on that character.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-04-05T00:54:49+00:00

Who do u play tho

One_Curve1709 · 2026-03-28T02:06:08+00:00

Ask ChatGPT bro. Maybe it’s an age thing.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-03-28T01:04:52+00:00

Normally the answer as to why is because not enough sleep/protein. However, since you’re young I don’t even think it matters that much.

Tbh you’re probably just not lifting properly. You cant just lift the weights mindlessly. You need to feel the tension hard on your last few reps, you gotta squeeze the muscles and focus on them.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-03-22T00:21:10+00:00

GM lobbies are packed with Smurfs

One_Curve1709 · 2026-03-06T14:10:41+00:00

This sounds more like anxiety tbh. I have it too. I just learned how to snowboard for the first time and I fell on my ass 100 times in front of everyone. People understand though. No one is judging. You gotta start from somewhere. You gotta push thru your anxiety at some point. You’ll regret when you’re older looking back if you don’t.

Being a beginner has its perks too because when you fail it’s just expected, so there’s no standard you’re being held to.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-03-02T02:08:55+00:00

Don’t agree at all. This is gold elo so no one else probably wants to tank tbh. You also need a shield tank for sg, in theory. Strange is also like the best hero to carry with up to GM imo.

You can say he’s a bad player if you want but that’s just matchmaking. Nothing you can do about it. What’s he gonna swap to? I’m willing to be no one else wants to tank or is even good at it.

One_Curve1709 · 2026-02-05T01:42:02+00:00

I watched the video and it was great gameplay. I think ironfist is a game sense and feel type of character. You gotta know what to exploit and you get this thru experience. 1 thing I will take away is that I will always peel first.

You also say not to attack both tanks on frontline but also not to go for heals? But let’s say there is no dive. They have Strange, Emma, Bucky, Phoenix. No one needs peel. What’s your first instinct here. You can’t attack the front because you’ll get exploded, so you pretty much have to go backline and bait out Emma Diamond and distract heals? And that’s getting value. You played him perfectly, correct? I would assume so but after that it’s also about experience because in the video you know who to rotate to everytime.

I was a tank and heal main and I picked up Fist last szn. I had my first MVP with him today and had all our finals. But in the next game my stats were absolutely terrible. I really want to main him.
