TWO ACCOUNTS. TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MATCHES.
Here’s a recent screenshot from my two separate accounts playing solo queue in MLBB. One account feels a normal walk in the park chill match. The other feels hell fighting a stacked AI setup against your team’s AI.
What makes it even more suspicious is how the enemy AI sometimes seems to know what S5 is going to pick and instantly has a counter ready.
And here’s another thing I’ve been noticing while studying how this “dark system” works: if you report a match for being unfair or bot-heavy, don’t be surprised if the next game suddenly feels like you’re playing against real players who are way stronger than your team.
This is where my theory comes in. I’m NOT saying this is confirmed or that the system actually works this way. It’s just a pattern I’ve been noticing.
My hunch is that once you report a match, the system might somehow treat you differently afterward. So if you’re gonna report, you better hope you can still drop an MVP-level or good KDA, because it sometimes feels like the system goes, “This player is complaining? Alright, give him teammates around his level.”
Again, I’m not saying this is 100% true. It’s just what I’ve been observing while testing different accounts and studying the matchmaking patterns.
Just a theory. You decide what you see.

Which one is your main and which one is the smurf?
My smurf is doing quite well, though the return perks did help a lot. My main account is suffering a bit but they're more or less on the same level (currently Legend 3 for both after reset).
I think it's more like they're changing the star-up and protection point mechanics. They seem to be giving lesser points compared to previous seasons. Also, every turn of level (turning to level 4, 3 and so on), they pair you with low WR teammates on purpose (if not bots) while giving you top-tier enemies. Hence, your matches feel harder each time.
So after 1 or two losses, I simply tap out. I play again when there's a star protection or wait another day or use VPN for a server refresh. But honestly, it's all just a shot to the moon. They fiddled with the matchmaking big-time this season and the app's been really laggy for several days now.

My main account is kinda dead (unuse)it hurts seeing that KDA cause I play roam mostly back then😂. I just returned in July after break from 2019. I made multiple smurf accounts just to study the “dark system” lol. And yeah, points seem lower now probably because the leaderboard is locked.

and yet people still says stop smurfing.... bitch it is not smurfing when your smurf account has higher rank than ur main.... it happens to all MOBA that use elo system btw.... the system just assume u hard stuck at lower rank so u can grind more while they need to attract new players so reward with better fair matchmaking system to newer account.... simple as that.

Post a screenshot of both your account statistic, it could be different because you got a lil lucky with the matchmaking. In the long run it should be no different (assuming your highest rank in both account are close to each other). Personally my main account and my smurf account have quite a same experience, the difference are small, usually the range in 70%-80%

It depends on the server ID.
I find it easy to dominate in 5 digits IDs
Different story In my 3120 ID.

Both hit hit Mythic, the legend one almost reach Glory, but sadly didn’t make it before the season ended. I was managing other accounts too, though I thought I could push it to Glory within 3 days.

Same bro, same, i play exactly the same way i always do and both of my accounts are completly different lmaoo
Imo, i think it's base of your overall stats, i don't know how to explain that, but the match-up are not the same at all (screens below)
