anyone know if you can use a proxy to play dota in General Discussion

    I wanna teach a friend dota/play with them, but I don't want to get the acc flagged as a smurf which would result in their games being absolute aids.

    I don't wanna carry, I just wanna support their carry and help them learn.

    I've been told if I make a new acc with this IP it'll get flagged as a smurf.

    And don't tell me smurf flagging doesn't exist, it 100% does.

                I dont think its IP based, maybe something like your computer identification name, among these lines

                  wonder which number identifies a computer in the network

                    IP doesn't identify an individual computer on a network, it is assigned to every device on the network so it would be a poor identification method.

                    You're thinking of a MAC address which is a unique identifier for the hardware itself.

                      if u want to be pedantic wifi card/adapter =/= computer either

                          who care smurf.
                          even w33, EE, 7mad and other pro players have smurf account tho.
                          sometimes they stream they all play acc smurf at twitch, and nothing happened to their smur/main.

                            OP you dont need a proxy, just ask your friends to make account for you, play few games on it then give it to you, you can then support them and have fun with them in normal skill bracket.
