For several seasons, my ranked games have been filled with players with usernames such as "xlksdf" and "uvalsdjf" which are low level accounts that were leveled up by bots and then sold to players. As a result, the quality of my ranked games have felt very low. These players either stomp very hard or just disconnect after their first death/run it down. I found out recently that there was something called "smurf queue". Although my win rate is fairly low, I'm getting matched with a lot of low level accounts with higher win rates. Am I in smurf queue? How would I go about getting out of it if so?
#What is Smurf Queue and how do I get out of it?

its when the game flags you for being better than your current rank
mostly when you're on a new acc and are in placements or low ranked games amount and have won

You have to get your account properly (placed) roughly 50~ games unless you’re at a 80-90% win rate. You’ll slowly start to see less until you maybe get 1 every 5 games or so

I was thinking about that, but was scared I'd ruin my friend's MMR or so afterwards
Do you know what happens to that person I duo with in terms of MMR?

It goes up really that’s it
Think of it this way
If the average rank of the lobby is higher, winning means you will gain more mmr than normal and losing means you will lose less
And if the average is lower than you you will gain less and lose more etc
Just depends on case to case what happens to ur friend really
But me or my mates don’t rlly care we just wanna play together

They're somewhere in my past games, I played a few after I made this post and it seems to be less and less
which is good for me, Im kinda just playing casually hoping the quality of the games go up some time

doubt there bot accounts alot of people who buy accounts get banned before making it to plat no matter what kind of mmr the account has for toxicity
some arent but the number that dont get banned are pretty low due to the nature of who buys them
but it also isnt hard to just inflate ur own mmr on fresh accounts so they could just have did that
