@Zkepz Smurfs are definitely way worse than the hackers I come across.
Smurfs lead to dedicated players getting frustrated to the point of leaving the game entirely which ultimately kills any good online pvp game.

@OldTreeCreeperYeah he says it right there, players that abuse the system and create new accounts to farm lower level lobbies.... that is EXACTLY what doing a Solo to masters challenge is, a loophole giving everyone permission to create smurf accounts.
@SILVERisSORRY I wasn't aware of this until recently and thought smurfing was simply having a second account.
Yes, smurfing is bannable.
(You can report them.)
But, normally, a player can't do that.
If you have enough skills, you can pass low level room very quickly, you know.
As other people said, some smurfing players were abusing system defects and they were banned.
I was absent from the last season.
So I started from Bronze Ranked.
I am not a good player but I have no prolem for passing there.
- @SILVERisSORRY Agreed! You can't dismiss the Solo grind still has the person farming through rookie, bronze, silver and gold. Like you said...it is literally a loophole. Why should players in these ranks get eating alive cause someone wants to go through again, and again and again. As someone mentioned here before, they know many ppl that have up to and over 30 accounts for Apex.
Say what you will, an x pred or master wiping through your low lobby on his way through does not make the outcome feel any less awful of an experience as they decimate you, de-rank you and you lose RP. Most just say, well that's ok, cause that particular person will only do that to you once, then will get placed appropriately. Yes - after they have done that to a 100 other players that don't deserve it.
Then once they move on to make the experience worse for the next ones above you....here comes along another one doing the same to you as the previous. And again and again. How long does Respawn think these ppl will take the abuse from players way beyond their skill range before they give up and quit?
