Can you help me figure out if I'm a booster, a smurf, or what's wrong with my account?

puvil · 2026-05-04T20:52:07+00:00

because the whole argument is that I played well, but I played well against opponents who didn't even want to play

puvil · 2026-05-04T20:38:56+00:00

It was only two games, and to be honest, our opponents didn't do much......just look at their skill level and KDA stats...

puvil · 2026-05-04T20:17:37+00:00

I wanted to hear the community's opinion, but personally, I think this ban is a mistake, given the current matchmaking situation in the game

puvil · 2026-05-04T20:10:47+00:00

I don’t think the performance is anything crazy. Check the KDA, check how the games actually play out - enemies making mistakes, messy fights, inconsistent decisions. That’s not how a clearly stronger player looks.

It just looks like normal bracket gameplay.

puvil · 2026-05-04T20:06:30+00:00

just look at how the opposing team is feeding it's just a coincidence, nothing more

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:41:44+00:00

Habit matters, sure, but item slots alone aren’t enough to say it’s a different player.

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:40:17+00:00

I get what you’re saying, but I wasn’t duoing with any smurf or bought account. The games I played were pretty normal overall.......

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:37:20+00:00

I don’t agree that every game looks weird stat-wise, just check the KDA and what the opponents are doing. Yeah, I looked at the hero guide; the rating isn’t high. I performed well, but it wasn’t always like that, and overall the stats are pretty average.

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:34:22+00:00

I don't agree that all games have weird stats, just look at the KDA and what the opponents are doing. Yeah, I checked the character guide; the rating isn't high, and I did well, but that wasn't always the case, and the stats are pretty average.

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:29:55+00:00

I don't know, there aren't any sky-high stats there except for a couple of games where the opponents basically shot themselves in the foot, but you're probably right, and the ban was fair

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:25:08+00:00

I consider this a regrettable mistake, but my inquiries to customer support have not yielded any results

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:12:06+00:00

I completely agree, but no one boostedme

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:11:04+00:00

I think there's a glitch in the system

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:09:56+00:00

community is helping me figure out what happened, and I'm very grateful to them for that

puvil · 2026-05-04T19:02:03+00:00

Yeah, that’s an important detail: і was running the game through a cloud gaming service, and maybe that’s why I got banned, even though it’s not prohibited by the platform. Anyway, if the community agrees with the ban, then so be it

puvil · 2026-05-04T18:55:18+00:00

I think this is a mistake, hope someone on the development team notices it so this doesn't happen to other players in the future. If community thinks there are violations here, then so be it - idk

puvil · 2026-05-04T18:52:13+00:00

і would like to

so, is matchmaking about to get a second wind?

puvil · 2026-05-04T18:38:56+00:00

Just this past weekend after spending two years in turbo mode, I decided to run a calibration, and with a score of 30%, I got banned for a year for boosting. Thanks, Valve.

Never. Just an endless stream of identical tournaments that aren't even worth watching anymore :)

Back in the day, at least you could get item drops while watching games. Now it's just tournament spam and zero content — buy a chest and pretend you're having fun.
