I am so tired of constantly running into smurf accounts. Everyone knows who they are, they're the brand new accounts playing like they've been there since season 1. They're brand new yet have 4k damage badges, 20 kill badges, and always come in groups of 3. What is wrong with you people? Whats the point of SBMM if people are constantly going to cheat around it? Are you so insecure that you can't play against other teams your own skill level? It would be awesome if Respawn actually banned these players, [Edit - Admin.]

Yeah, I don't under the stand the report button for smurfing in this game anymore when we have streamers doing "bronze to pred" streams. Some of them actually players who play in esports for apex which is even more ironic.

This is the current position on smurfing afaik from apex hideouts.
"So does this mean I can get banned for doing the “Solo to masters in all legend”?
" No. This is intended for players that abuse the system and create new accounts consistently to farm lower level lobbies. Having one smurf to do a grind like that will not get you banned"

@SILVERisSORRY that's not my interpretation of it. The question put to Conor was about a ranked challenge. He replied
"create new accounts consistently to farm lower level lobbies."
To me, it seems to be very specifically about banning farming pub or ranked smurfs, who are specifically and persistently wipeing out lower level lobbies for whatever reason. Not ranked challenge smurfs who are passing through.

@NickBeam27 I cannot disagree with you. I used to think all smurfing was bannable, until I saw Hideouts clarification. I don't know why such a distinction was made.
