If you have three accounts you're absolutely smurfing, what the hell are you talking about? You have 3 accounts, two are smurfs. That's just how it goes. It's literally the definition of smurfing.
I've tried playing more, and it's just more smurfs ruining match-making and giving me very frustrating experiences. At this point I feel like I could drop down to Bronze and it'd just be master and predator smurfs wrecking things. I really had some fun in Apex but this has completely killed it for me.
Respawn (or EA), please respond and let me know if smurfs are even on the radar, let alone a priority. Or let me know if you don't care at all about them, so I can know for sure to forget about Apex. Thanks!
Seeing full groups of smurfs today. I've also run into the exact same cheating smurf a second time, as evidenced by the fact that I'd blocked and reported them previously, so that's more proof that nothing is really currently being done to cull smurfs in any way.
Respawn, please, shed some light: are there any plans to confront the smurfing problem? Is it not seen as a problem at all? Will Season 6 have any Ranked changes to try to deal with this issue, or are those of us who aren't great at the game supposed to either accept that smurfs are going to stomp all over us in the majority of our games, or leave Apex?
It seems like the smurfing is way, way worse at the end of the season when people don't give a * anymore. But if I have to try and "time" when to play the game so I don't run into smurfs, that's...not fun.
I watched a smurf kill a smurf that had killed a smurf that had killed me today, that was pretty hilarious. Really hope Season 6 has Respawn address smurfing, in any way at all. They've been terribly silent about it.
Well, Season 6 patch notes and Ranked blog are out. Not a single mention of smurfs at all. Like, zero mention at all of how much they mess with us in the lower tiers. I guess since the "new" accounts make it look like more people are playing the game, it's not worth addressing?
So let me get this right, you're complaining about smurfing yet you're in very low tier ranks?
If you are struggling to progress in ranked, you are in the correct tier you was supposed to be in. There are many factors that appear to this, new accounts, helping a friend rank up, new console etc.If you are struggling, then it is not smurfing that is the issue, it is your aim.
