Smurfing is now a bannable offense. Right now tpabomah is streaming for 5600 viewers smurfing/boosting low mmr account (around 1500 mmr) while stating his main 7800 mmr.

In 4 days of 06 Apr 2021 – 08 Apr 2021 he played RANKED matches on at least 4 different low mmr accounts. I can’t mention account IDs due to Reddit “Personal and confidential information” rules so appreciate everyone who checks it by yourself with match IDs in Dota client.

Boost / account buying / account selling

I don’t know which account tpabomah considers as his main but

acc#5

Date: March 29, 2021 he posted a video on his youtube channel called TRAVOMAN ON THE MAIN | GAME AGAINST TOP 50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0uA0yqnnss (screenshots in case it's deleted https://i.imgur.com/pUNztFf.png https://i.imgur.com/cK8zn83.png )

MATCH ID: 5857244916 db: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/5857244916 happened on February 26, 2021

Medal: immortal rank1274

However, this account was party-boosted 1.5 years ago by a real high mmr player.

One of those party games: dotabuff.com/matches/5095227464

Meepo’s dotabuff is opened so you can find out more party games with acc#5.

Here is a video on the channel https://www.twitch.tv/videos/416533134 timing 00:54:27 (account details for a moment)

MATCH ID: 4915042758 db: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/4915042758

Medal: immortal rank199

3 months ago this account was played by (and most likely originally owned) by another real high mmr player: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyAY-OtSrlI (screenshots https://i.imgur.com/t45AC1Y.png https://i.imgur.com/9EtjcAK.png )

MATCH ID: 5785344113 db: https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/5785344113

His Twitch channel description said his max mmr on main account is 7800:

So which one is his main? ha-ha

He deleted this statement in couple of hours after my first post https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/mm6zhg/smurfing_is_now_a_bannable_offense_tpabomah/

Сonclusion.

It is proved tpabomah was buying (playing/streaming) high mmr accounts in the past which now don’t belong to him.

9 weeks ago tpabomah played immortal rank1274 which is 7200 mmr.

It seems tpabomah is playing a different low mmr account around 1500 MMR each stream. And it might be considered as boosting because each of acc#1,2,3,4 got new medal in its user feed corresponding to stream date.
