@Riot Green Wards + bots issue

Reposting this here as well just in case this IS in fact a bug

I didn't see anyone mentioning this, so sorry if it was already brought up.

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or more of an oversight, but when I was trying out some things in a custom game, I noticed bots still buy green wards. The odd thing is, how? They shouldn't be there, yet every bot in the game had them, and the problem seems to be, they get confused and then never place them, so the bots get stuck with a green ward in their inventory they shouldn't have in the first place.

Will you give them masteries as well? They don't have any. And their buildpaths are quite outdated - the adc bots still build bloodthirster as first item :c

I can certainly bring it up to the team responsible for this particular content. :]

Yes! I usually play some customs against bots to try out new stuff (champions, builds, whatever), but it bothers me how glitchy/outdated they are, so thanks! :D

Bots don't use the regular shop and have always been able to buy disabled items. They're scripted to make specific purchases, so they always get whatever items they're supposed to get. For example, when Deathfire Grasp was removed several bots continued to purchase it until their item lists were updated.

This is a bug, but it has to do with the bot's item lists rather than the item shop.
