Let's start with the answer to the question you came looking for, plain and simple. The answer is YES. You absolutely can Smurf in League of Legends. There are no rules against owning multiple accounts, nor is Smurfing technically against the rules. The Riot Games staff have made it abundantly clear on this matter many times in the past; you can 100% play on a smurf account if your intention is not to ruin other players' games. Now that may be a little bit foggy; what exactly is considered ruining other players' games, you might ask? First timing Yasuo and going 0-25? Or maybe being a Master+ Tier player queuing up on your one-trick in an Iron game and dropping 60 kills in a single match?

As long as you are following the summoner's code, there is no chance you will be banned on any of your League of Legends accounts, smurf or not! I personally have been smurfing for years and years with no issues whatsoever. I can attest first-hand that neither myself nor my peers have ever received any sort of punishment for playing on a smurf account.

What is a League of Legends Smurf?

Smurfing is quite a funny term. To the best of my knowledge, the name is derived from those little blue freaks from the 1980s TV Cartoon. Today it is the commonly referred to name for League of Legends or video game players in general who are playing on a secondary account that is of a much lower rank than their main.

Often frowned upon, especially in the League of Legends scene, they are often seen as highly skilled, very toxic, and normally tote extremely impressive win rates and match histories because they are playing well below their skill average in ranked.

Why and how to Smurf?

As someone who has made smurf accounts in the past and actively still plays on them from time to time, they have many uses. First and foremost, smurf accounts are primarily used to play with your lower-ranked friends. My friends' group personally has players who range in skill level, and obviously, everyone cannot queue up for ranked with one another due to the restrictions in ranked. For more information about the ranked matchmaking system and who you can queue with, take a look at this informative guide: (Insert Link Here). Having multiple accounts in different tiers of the ranked ladder allows for quick access while playing with your pals regardless of what rank they are, be it for a quick and fun game or to cheekily help them complete a promotional series.

Secondly, if you play a considerable amount of ranked games on your main account at a certain level, you more than likely are an expert at one specific role and a small handful of champions. Branching out and learning new picks or practicing a new role can be very unforgiving while playing at your peak rank, so why not practice outside of ranked? Well, unfortunately, Ranked games are the most competitive and best practice environment in League of Legends. Playing normal games, bot games, or testing things in the practice tools simply does not cut it. Having a lower-ranked smurf account allows you to practice and play your different picks, new builds, or secondary roles with no concern for the LP on your main account!

Now when it comes to obtaining a smurf account, one thing is for certain. Hand levelling and creating your own secondary account that is prepped for playing ranked is tedious and time-consuming.

Purchasing a hand levelled, high-quality unranked, or specifically ranked smurf account is the safest, fastest, and most efficient way to get yourself smurfing in no time flat. For the best prices, and the safest guarantee that your account has been created by professionals and has zero risk of being flagged or banned, take a look here: (Insert Link Here)

Can you Smurf in Clash?

Smurfing in Clash tournaments has always been a point of contention. Is it possible to do while staying under the radar and going undetected? Absolutely. It is highly frowned upon, discouraged and punishable? Yes.

Riot has done many things to help limit the presence of Smurfs in Clash tournaments, including adding SMS verification on accounts to limit the number of players, as well as having stringent checks and following up on any reports of smurfs or unfairly matched teams during a tournament. It is with 100% certainty that if Riot investigates and finds that you have been smurfing in a Clash tournament, your entire team will be stripped of their rewards and barred from future tournaments.

Can you be banned for Smurfing?

No, no, and no! But let me clarify, although smurfing itself is not against the League of Legends terms of service, sharing accounts and the usage of third-party software to create accounts are. The quickest and easiest way to obtain a smurf account is simply to purchase one outright, but with dozens of options on the market for a wide range of prices, a new buyer has no idea what to look for.

Luckily for you, I can say look no further. If you are not convinced about our service yet and want to venture on a quest to find a better quality account, we want to give you a word of caution. There are undoubtedly cheaper account options on the market, but you need to ask yourself. Who creates these accounts, and how are the prices so low? The answer is they are botted and created en masse with scripting programs. These accounts carry massive risk to the buyer and are flagged upon creation by the Riots bot detection system. These accounts are then banned in huge waves at a later date which is why very few services offer insurance and money-back guarantees on their accounts.

Save your time creating an account, and save your money buying garbage because the hand levelled, safe and secure accounts we can provide can have you smurfing in no time flat!
