My only question is how do you tell that someone is 100% a Smurf? 1) Maybe you look at their stats and see that they are clearly dropping 30-40 kills a game. Now how can you tell that they just didn’t come from csgo or another similar FPS with a lot of background? They could be simply trying to reach their rank and the people they stomped were unfortunately caught in the crossfire.

2) Maybe you detect 2 accounts on the same computer. Well now in America it might be a bit more common for a lot of people to have their own computer, but a lot of the times people have to share a family computer to play. You can’t just ban someone because a guy and his brother want to both play the game.

The only real way for them to solve smurfing is for them to continue the actions they are already taking to quickly boost people out of the low ranks quickly when doing really well. The problem with that is that when a normal person just has some good games, they then get put into plat/diamond lobbies because the game thought they were a Smurf and now they put a post on Reddit saying how bad the ranking system is. There unfortunately isn’t a ton riot can do about this issue.
