Odd behavior from Treeline Intermediate Bots AI

Qcevolution·Mar 27, 2018·21 votes·1,070 views

First off I didn't know if this was a bug or intended behavior cuz it has been happening across the last few patches, so I figured i'd post it here to see if anyone else has seen it.

During twisted treeline games on the intermediate level (especially if you are losing hard or draggin the game for full build/practice) the bots just kinda give up after about 20min. It's odd but anywhere from one of them to the entire team will just sit in the fountain. They WILL not come out again for the rest of the game. It really makes things less fun. Has anyone else run into this? It definitely wasn't always the case, as I can remember games goin easily into the 40mins.

Well, Riot did say they wanted bots to behave more realistically..

One of the bots is probably raging at the other bots.

I've had this happen a few times and I think its a result of the bots roaming AI bugging out , they're not able to fully decide which area of the map they want to roam and defend. My guess is because of all the improvements they've made to the Summoners Rift AI, the Twisted Treeline bots are suffering because the maps are vastly different.

I've had them run out of the fountain and into a lane, even though were were pushing the nexus. Their detection and roaming AI's have been buggy for months, and I think its just as simple as Riot hasn't become aware of it yet.

I haven't experienced it last time I tried playing TT intermediate. Can you guess what the trigger might be?

The real question is...

Why the hell are you playing TT bots?

Yeah, because TT bots are badwrongfun. If they don't play the game in exactly the way I play it, they aren't worth having.

I think around 5 of the bots also bug out like that on SR. I know Jhin, Taric, Yasuo, and Shyvana can all bug out and either stand still in lane or the fountain and several of the other bots can just run it into your team while you're in their base. Like they won't attack or try to dodge anything, they just run straight into your team.

I actually had this happen to intermediate WW Bot in SR. He just stopped for some reason, and after running a few circles around him I killed him and he never left fountain.
