Smurfing is worse this season because the high level ranked scene is terrible.

I'm at the point where if a player is this good at a low level, the game should auto ban them for smurphing.
Got an alright team in arenas, and the enemy team was this player, a level 27, and a level 19. I thought "either new players or smurphs". All 3 were smurphs and they were using wall hacks as they knew EXACTLY where anyone in my team were at, at any given moment. Two of them were using aimbot, this guy was using strike packs.
Wish they did more than ban people over one curse word.
