Why are there so many boosters/smurfs on ancient bracket ? in General Discussion

    I matured enough to create this "ok thread" since my salt level is beyond reasonable limit.

    After pretty good streak of 8 wins in a row and hitting Ancient 3, I was welcomed by mmr assassins in enemy team, almost every single game I played since yestarday. Of course I didint play for a week and I was not that much in shape but not that terrible as well. But.....

    https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/4131271295 - my last game - look at jugg account (his rapier was mine btw)

    https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/4130077842 - alchemist guy, low lvl acc with pretty much almoast 100% win rate on huskar, bm and arc warden

    https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/4131182014 - Huskarr guy, low lvl acc etc.

    https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/4129965340 - Techies guy, low lvl acc with very high win rate on typical pubstompers

    Next game I abandoned which is not shown somehow but i ran into the same booster again.

    These are only 5 games from my last 8 games.

    I know no one cares, but can anyone tell me why are there so many smurfs on this bracket? Why people make them ? To get 30 dollars for 2 week job ? I was probably reported by a party in 1 game and then a series of almost unwinnable games started. Ofc I will regain mmr but since I dont have that much time for it im just left with a sense of bitter failure.

    Since Gaben made dodging games impossible, what to do in order to avoid running into boosters every second game ?

      I never encountered boosters or smurfs (maybe twice but unranked) in ranked till now but since im gonna meet them potentially in future , better agree with u .
      But how are u not on equal level with those boosters ? U have 6k games for gods sake . U should be immortal .

        the only way to beat boosters is to be stronger than them and beat the f*ck out of them.

          Simple reason being that high Divine and Immortal is a fucking tough game almost every game, some of those guys make an alternative account to just kick back and relax a bit.

            In my experience a win streak is almost always met by a lose streak.

              some games are simply unwinnable

                                on which other bracket would a booster be? Just think about it: they boost acc from 3.5 mmr to whatever - thus surpassing acnient bracket 100% of time

                                    boosters or smurfs typically get overconfident and make a bad play that causes them to throw the game cuz they underestimate you -> win :--)
