Today, we permanently banned 90,000 smurf accounts that have been active over the last few months. Smurf accounts are alternate accounts used by players to avoid playing at the correct MMR, to abandon games, to cheat, to grief, or to otherwise be toxic without consequence. Additionally, we have traced every single one of these smurf accounts back to its main account.
That doesn’t sound like a good justification for either you or the other players. In the case of the other players, obviously it sucks to play against people way out of their league. But even for you if you feel like you need to pick on people not as good as you to feel better about yourself before you take on people around your skill level or better, then you’re not dealing with it in a realistic or healthy way.
I wasn’t talking about legal or following rules, I was saying that it’s not realistic or healthy to do that kind of thing for you, or the players that do it, for a confidence boost.
