Smurf
A smurf is a secondary account kept by an experienced player at a lower rank than their main. Players use smurfs to play casually, to queue with lower-ranked friends, or to practise new characters without risking their main’s rank.
Because demand is high, smurf accounts are one of the most traded categories in any competitive game. Quality matters: a hand-leveled smurf behaves like an organic account, whereas a botted one carries more risk.
