Hey guys,
So I've recently got back into the game as a casual player. I am an avid consumer of streams and other youtube videos, so I am still well aware of what's going on (+thanks to coh2.org off course!)
Recently I've matchmaked 3 times in a row vs. the same player, he had 2.1hours into the game, and was already playing at some advanced level.
Obviously by the 3rd time I figured out this was a Smurf account. Needless to say, I was overmatched on all 3 games and it really ruined my 1v1 experience that night. I asked the guy what was the point of smurf, he avoided to answer but offered to wintrade on the last game, which made me even more mad at him. I don't think he was a streamer or anything like that...so my question is, why smurf, and what pleasure do you get out of it?
Other than for streaming purpose or reviews of the ELO system, I can only see negatives in this (ex: Paul AD and his countless trolls). I think Steam/Relic should take steps to avoid this kind of situation, or at least make it very transparent what's going on.
That's it , I'm out. Feel free to share your Smurf experience here.
