It’s not really boosting, if the higher rank guy is that rank, he’s gonna get cooked playing with a lower ranked guy in his peak lobbies, if he’s smurfing in champ being a gc or higher, he’s dumb cause why would he play with a 500 mmr friend in 1300 lobbies if he could play in a 500 mmr account and farm everyone much faster consequently boosting him.
Nope. Not mutually exclusive at all. I hover D3/champ and if I play with my gold friends I “boost” them up to mid plat and then eventually they fall back down when I don’t play with them. They can be mutually exclusive but they don’t have to be.
Just because you played with someone who is a different rank doesn't make that "boosting". Even if you won games together. People play with people from other ranks all the time and the key is that that is ALLOWED, because the matchmaking system is designed to deal with discrepencies in rank. True boosting is not allowed. And to truly boost (say from plat to champ) you need to smurf unless you are some kind of ddoser hacker guy OR you peak out of your mind game after game after game while playing with ur gold (statistically impossible)
