I see a lot of posts every day saying that low elo is very bad and there are a lot of smurfs in low ranks. So i created a new account and placed it in Iron 3 to see how many smurfs i get each game. The results were actually mind-blowing.

Note : I'm Diamond 3 on my main. So im pretty sure i can point out who is smurfing

Note 2 : I didn't want to ruin the game for players in Iron. So I only supported my team with agent's abilities. I didn't frag at all.

Here is the data I collected :

Total Ranked games played in Iron 3: 4

Game 1: Caught 2 smurfs on the enemy team with around 30+ kills. these guys were owning my team one tapping heads.

My team also had a smurf with 30 kills. a/c to my analysis these smurfs belong to Gold/Plat.

their rank in-game was bronze 1

Game 2 : Enemy team had 2 smurfs. with one of them having 37 kills. the other one went afk after 1st half. . They even admitted that they were smurfs and belong to Gold 3.

My team had 1 smurf. a/c my analysis he is Gold too. he had 32 frags.

Game 3: Surprisingly there were no smurfs on the enemy team. their kills were below 10. They surrendered.

My team had 2 smurfs. after analyzing their gameplay I concluded that they belong to Diamond-Plat. They were also talking about how they deranked on their main from Diamond.

Game 4: No smurfs on the enemy team. they had below 20 kills

Noone was smurfing on my team.

​

CONCLUSION: at least 3 out of 4 games In iron/Bronz have people smurfing. Mostly who belong to Gold.

THE data I collected may not be fully accurate. But I have to admit that there are a lot of smurfs in low elo.. like a wayyy lot of smurfs than I expected.
