What is up with onion player icons groups smurfs

Every time I see Onion player icons more than 2 players. 100 guarantee its a smurf group.
I tried to invite and it says already in group.
100% all the time.
Now I just report Onion player icons for smurfing + deranking.

There are many layers to this, i don’t want to cut to deep into it because it usually brings people to tears. But i can say that they stink.

Yes it stinks. That I do agree.

What is an onion player icon?

I think they’re referring to the -mari ones.

I have no clue what those player icons are from, they look like mini onions with faces to me.
Whenever I see 2-4 players with them, 99% of the time, it is a group of smurf min-maxing, and the match experience is very bad.

Not sure why they do that, as it is a BIG hint they are smurfs, it is like they want to be found or noticed.

I have noticed that pattern for years, probably 5-6 years ago

Freudian slips are a thing. Just like cheaters often give themselves away with their name and pfp combo. Then you check their profile if it’s not hidden what heroes they mostly play, hours, stats and you just know they will cheat.

Oh, oh, am I a cheater?
I’ve always wanted to know!

Are you talking about icons like mine? The pachimari icons?

They are super adorable and a lot of people like to pick 'mari icons. My group and I sometimes like to pick the seasonal Pachimari icons to match around christmas time/halloween etc.

nah your are cheater, we got the proof :rofl:
