We need 2FA or other smurf-proofing in Ranked.

This season has been atrocious in the number of smurfs I've come across. I report them every time I see them but they just keep coming. It's to the point that I'll just have to walk away for a while ...

@BrunoPuntzJonez A lot of them create smurph accounts to change their luck with the matchmaking. Which is annoying. Some of the accounts are new players. Normally when it shoves level 25's and below on my team, they act like they never played the game before.

These are very obvious smurfs, they put their level badge in along with the big damage/kill badges that they got from killing players in bronze. If you're level 25 with 200-300 kills, you're not a new player to Apex and it's very, very obvious.

Ran into more today. Does reporting them do anything, or does Respawn allow/encourage smurfing to ruin the SBMM? Can people be banned for it? I'd really appreciate hearing Respawn's position on the huge smurfing problem.
