Have you ever heard of a reverse smurf?
Meet Vô Corvo, the 68 year old Brazilian League of Legends streamer who got so sick of smurfs ruining his low rank Iron games that he decided to take revenge by getting his hands on high ranked accounts and ruining their games.
We got to speak to the man himself to find out how you become a reverse smurf as well as all the love and backlash he’s received.

Supremely based behavior. Smurfs are scumbags that ruin the game for the vast majority of players since most people are low elo in any game. In tf2 comp higher div playes usually get med locked or just can't play there main if the skill gap is smaller. so main and im players in am pugs usually get class locked while adv or inv players would be med locked but they rarely show up in low div pugs as they have their own high div pug groups.

And smurfing in games is a normal thing when you became good at the game and are on high ranks, because no one wants to have 10-20 minutes queue. So if you cant create smurfs (like a lot of league players want Riot to do) you are punished for getting to high ranks, because the game becames less fun because high queue times. There are a lot of reasons to make a smurf, and the reasons people are against are realy only a mindset problem, and only happens like 1-20 games with a 50/50% chance to be in your team or against you, so not a problem at all.

I'm cool with this... I'm a high ranked FPS player but bronze-silver in league. I never understood people smurfing in FPS games and it's so frustrating dealing with it in league... I never had to deal with reverse smurfs in FPS but I think it would be a good thing for people to experience cause they're never on the receiving side of it and dish it out all the time and pretend like it's no big deal. As if they're not completely ruining whats supposed to be a fun time for others. If I was high ranked I obviously wouldn't love it, but I could at least laugh at the idea of what they're doing and understand it.

I started playing league a couple of years back. I never played it or any other mobas before so it was all new to me. The first game I played I got flamed by my team for being new. They all smurfed and my entire enemy team was smurfing too. I was like alright, GG go next and played some more. The next 5 games all played out the same, everyone in the lobby was a smurf, or only the enemies had smurfs. I uninstalled in the middle of game six because as you guessed: More smurfs

Helping fix smurfs is actually pretty easy. If you have a couple games where you absolutely dominated, TURBO boost the MMR of the account. Even if it boosts them past where they should be, the system will even it out because theyll start doing terribly or theyll be put in the elo they belong in and just be on par.

Hes a fucking legend. Lmao as somone who has a smurf for playing with my irl's I love this
im a smurf myself and i hate it, i wish riot would make every account linked with your personal ID or FACE scan or w/e idc. Yes i do smurf myself to play with friends because there just isnt a way for me to play with them without playing flex which is completely fcked elo whise and has a whole different playstyle because u usually meet 5 stacks. Smurfing should be removed and another duoq type should be invented where elo differences are uncapped so i can play with my friends solo duo without smurfing. When we reach the rank where it goes into 50% wr im usually more happy because i dont just faceroll ppl all game. Yes guys dont get me wrong it is fun but it is only fun for a while until it gets boring and there is basicly no reward its basicly like beating a child in boxing or w/e over and over again. Its not fair i feel bad and when i ruin ppls promos i occasionally even add ppl and duo with them to make up for it. Pls riot PLS remove smurfing just use face ID or how about a telephone number like in clash? Why is it in clash but not in ranked its simply because riot makes a shit ton of money of ppl creating new accounts and buying skins and thats why smurfing will never be removed sadly. Sorry for ruining ur games
Not all heroes wear capes! If smurfing is allowed then he is doing Gods work.
High Elos in Brazil says "If you can climb its because you're in the elo you deserve" So i think thats applies as well when you can't carry an Iron Player on High elo :p

Please come to Brazil
Riot be like"Smurf is the community problem not sth that we can do, thus, you guys just help yourself and continue to buy our RP lol"
smurfs give riot more money. i wouldnt be surprised if riot actually has a side business of selling leveled accounts, accounts with rare skins, different elo accounts and selling them or saving them as a sort of investment to charge more later.
Its simple to fix one account per hardware id if your found on a second account your main account gets banned.

I feel like properly addressing the situation from Riot's side would be the biggest W. Sure reverse smurfing is fun to watch, but being in lobbies like that as a d1 player hurts a lot, especially when L9 InterNunu and his friends are trolling so many of the games already, and getting thousands of views for it. It shouldn't be the people who play properly that gets punished, but actual smurfs instead back in silver

Smurfing sucks and is shit for the game but if you're a specific rank and have more than 50 games that season. You belong somewhere in that rank. Regardless of trolls, smurfs, and inters. The reason being we all get these along our own journey.
the problem with league community is toxicity and smurf accounts. as a new player, you wouldnt be able to stand up to experienced players. but as an experienced player, you want to smurf on noobs and feel superior. the amount of toxicity that comes in form of verbal chat is astonishing.
