Can't really tell for CS:GO but in League of Legends, good players create smurfs all the time and the motivation is usually to prove yourself and/or other people (e.g. Twitch viewers, Reddit) that you can keep a very high winrate and reach the top 1% in a few weeks. Sometimes it comes with an extra challenge like playing only the same champion.
> just destroying a bunch of new players? Surely that must get boring after a while?
Smurfs never play more than 4 or 5 games versus new players. The matchmaking system doesn't match a guy who has 100% winrate over his 20 first games with a guy who has only 30-50%.
