Over the past few days, I have seen a lot of posts on this sub about pros smurfing in low elos. The problem for me is a lot of them who do it are big streamers like Hiko (Radiant) Pokimane (Diamond) and Wardell (Radiant) but at least Wardell was clearly messing around and not trying. However, apparently, Hiko was going 27-6 when he did smurf. In total, the 3 of them average about 30K-50K viewers so imagine how many people might see this and think "hey smurfing looks fun" and ruins every low Elo player's day.
Edit: Okay so apparently some of the people I mentioned are boosted. I did not know this and im sorry that people are getting offended that I said poki was diamond.
Edit #2: Thank you for all of the awards :D
Edit 3: just so it’s clear, I haven’t faced a smurf in months. Please stop messaging me to get good. I already did that

Did all the agents in the style of NPCs in the Gameboy Advance Pokemon games!

I think this change in mindset had helped me in other competitive games to have more fun and not get titled.
