- @SlivPTS Nope, not any different from a master/Pred demoted to Bronze. Respawn allows it

There is no difference between playing against cheaters, or squad of smurfs. It's cheating.
Also when was the last time when you reported someone?
When you are reporting in game, there is option to report for "Smurfing" in "Cheating" category, so smurfing is against rules.- @SlivPTS idk why you believe that option really does something. If it was actually against the rules, streamers wouldn't be doing Bronze to master streams.
I haven't played this split so I will be in Bronze anyways. Me making a new account and playing in bronze vs playing in Bronze on my main account, what's the difference? Achieves the same outcome, stomping on newbies. (I don't smurf, just giving an example) - @ILostT0Loba
you are mixing too much things together...
Streamers are not creating new accounts just to destroy newbies.
"Bronze to master" is NOT the same as new account every evening just to... read above.
When 3 smurfs (Diamond + level players) are in one squad, then you have no chance to win, cuz this dumb MM system always gives you 2 random bots and mixes together premade squads with randoms.
And yes, there is difference when you are playing with randoms. Mach-making system will not give you 2 completely brain-dead players, cuz it will think that you are one of them. - @SlivPTS to be fair, you wouldn't always know if they're smurfing just to destroy newbies, I do smurf too sometimes whenever my low-skilled friends (bronze/silver) trynna play ranked, I'm at Diamond myself, so I wouldn't be that harsh letting them running around in Diamond lobbies.
However I agree that there's smurf who intentonally trying to ruin games for everyone, a full squad bronze with 4k badges. It's irritating for sure, but I'm sorry to tell you that report button most likely won't do anything good.
Most banned players are those who either got massively reported for blatant cheating, or those who got caught by the anti-cheat because of their second-hand hardware or cheap cheat software. - @SlivPTS yeah but it achieves the same outcome, ultimately they are destroying the experience of new players. 1 pred player in bronze is no different from 3 diamonds in Bronze. Your logic makes no sense.
Maybe the three stack is doing Bronze to master challenge as a full team? Every type of smurfing has almost the same result regardless of what your intentions are. Either its all cheating or neither is.
You should rename your post to 'triple stacking smurf is cheating, solo smurfing isn't' 🤡 @ILostT0LobaThere is a reason that these options to report are here. Smurfing has made a negative impact on the game. This reporting feature exists for a reason. Smurfing is allowed but its also a report function due to making game-play bad for most who encounter said smurf.
Smurfing in my eyes is 100% wrong and the users know exactly what they are doing when they do it. To pub stomp and rank stomp lower end lobbies. Sure they can play with friends but the fact is smurfing is there to show off to friends dropping 20 bombs and 4k against brand new players thinking they are actually good. I personally highly dislike smurfs with a passion.
Anytime a user interrupts game-play forcing them to question is this game for me or is this how all my games will go. They are gaining an unfair advantage over others by being a lot better then them. Avoiding a in game mechanic of SBMM avoiding their proper lobbies. A lot do these on smurfs strictly for badges because they are not remotely good enough playing against their skill levels to obtain these. So for me it is cheating by manipulating sbmm mechanic to try and look good against bot like players.
