Playing a Smurf vs playing someone at your skill level in competitive is a completely different experience. An enemy widow sniping your entire team over-and-over again is not the same as going overtime and nearly drawing a payload nap.

I’m wondering if you even play overwatch?

I'm agreeing that Smurfs are a problem, I'm willing to help develop an AI to detect unexpected above average skill and boot those players, we'll call it Gargamel.
