How to deal with smurfs?
Summer Sale brings a lot of good games reachable for everyone for a cheap price,but CS:GO is cheap anyway and the sales just hurt it . But let's get to the point ! How do I deal with smurfs? Now competitive is unbearable . I left a game after loosing 0/8 just to 1 guy on their team who just happens to have a fresh steam account with nothing but CS:GO and small hours of gameplay on it . So I ask you, is there anything I can do in this situation? No reports are viable for this as much as I know and it really ruins the game for a lot of people ! Sitting 30-40 minutes waiting to lose from someone clearly above your skill level is just outrageous !

I for one enjoy smurfing and see all the scrubs crying cheater. That's how I deal with it.

I find your desire to ban smurfs disturbing.

theres nothing wrong with smurfing, but i dont do it because thatd be like a grown man beating up little kids

they do it when they find themselves in a competitive cooldown usually...like they will disconnect from a game cus internet issues etc...etc... then make a smurf cus they have a 7 day or something...it happens man...i've done it...u don't c em often and if u do just try and use it to get better...best way to get better is play with higher ranks
"u don't c em often" I respect that you mixed good grammar with kappa l33t speak, and all, but really. You're wrong, and smurfing is an issue. +1 Ban all smurfs

Smurfs mostly aren't a real problem because they will get a rank matching their skill eventually.
There might be people who downrank on purpose though.

i have a smurf too. I think last game i was called "Mr. 8 hours" while having 20-1 stats :D
That was actually pretty funny.
Most funny part of the story is imo: my Smurf-Account is actually older than ~90% of the accounts you see in the game nowadays. ;-)

cool story bro
whats to deal with ?

some people are better than you ? doesnt matter what their "rank" is I'ved played games with everyone else with eagle or higher and me on nova 4 .. no smurfs, and yeah I got owned.

Ived played games when I was mge and the entire rest of the players were silver ranked.

Ive also played games when unranked players are useless, and others when they are good.

so what !

Deal, your rank is roughly what it should be give or take a few ranks.unranked smurfs only stay unranked for 10 or maybe 15 matches if they are unlucky, then they go into their proper ranks.

Stop caring about what rank you are and you wil start enjoying the game more.

So what if they are using a smurf. Take it as a challenge to improve yourself instead of whining.

You can think of smurfs as people who spent money to kill noobs if it helps you...

Yea I don't think that people just buy a new account cause they are leaving on theirs . It's pretty much someone who is bad in his high rank and just makes it to feel good or something . I don't really care about the reason it's ruining the game for everybody in there !

You can't really enjoy a game where 1 guy on their team is just owning the ♥♥♥♥ out of all of you . Like you can't win a round and it's just gonna be 16/0 for them . No I don't find that fun and a "Just deal with it" situation .

If there are smurfs, just watch what they do and learn from it.

Well that's what it is . Just someone who wants to feel good by ruining the game for lower ranks .
