I technically smurfed when I was/am farming up my EUW account. It actually taught me so much about how to play. More than I actually learned in my normal account.

I can't carry, it's quite simple, I have a phobia of carrying a game and I just couldn't do it. Someone in fact pointed out in my normal account when I was playing TankGath that I was acting scared to engage as the team's tank. Another time a friend spectating a game of mine said that I didn't land a single autoattack on a tower before 35 minutes.

When I started smurfing I got somewhere close to a streak of about 4 games where I went 30/2/10 and still lost.

On the 5th game however as I was sitting back being outpushed to death despite being 20 kills ahead of my deaths. I decided to live a little and go out and push, we eventually managed to fight back and win with the rest of the team.

Learning to carry a game made me win more games in my high leveled account.
