AI is too easy, more difficulty options plz

I'm pretty sure that most players forget about Coop vs AI after reaching 30... But I'm one of the few who really enjoys playing Coop vs AI mode. I like trying out new champs, fun (=troll) item builds and taking it slow and easy - you know, without the stress/fear of getting bad-mouthed or ridiculed by other players. Lack of player toxicity is one of the strong charms of playing vs AI.

However, currently the AI is so easy that it ruins the fun. Most AI champs are:

Weak - No runes, no masteries, no summoner spells.. not on even footing with the players. Dumb - Dumb path-finding behavior (First blood exploit using Towers), Ryze bot trying to Q you but getting minion blocked, etc Have weird item builds Lack objectives - Bots will never take down Dragon/Baron No Jungle - Bots will always duo top instead Lack of bot diversity - When will I ever see Zed/Ahri bots?

Could we get something more challenging than 'Intermediate' please Riot? As much as I want to enjoy vs AI, there is no fun when all 5 players are roflstomping (double digit kills) and breaking enemy Nexus at 15 min mark.

I have to agree with you... The P Vs. AI is a bit...lame. Intro should be removed... Beginner > Intermediate > Master > Legendary (lvl 30+ Required)

IMO They should just make Doom Bot mode a normally available mode.

Also 3v3 bots are harder than 5v5 bots for some reason. I heard a long time ago that SR bots are bugged and 3's bots use a better AI... Don't think its true that 5's bots are bugged, but it is an interesting theory.

After a night of straight losses in PORO, I went to AI intermediate for awhile to regain some "excitement"... Once players unlock their ULT's, bots dont stand a chance except when they rush Mid lane...and even then, team ganks wipe them out for MULTIPLE ACE's!

Bout 5 months ago, AI wasn't as great in intermediate as it is "now". The bots never pushed Mid or any other lane that was "weakened". The bots need to be given a few scripts to go after Dragon and be on the defensive just like players do, and the same goes for Herald and Baron. I could even go as far as to suggest that the bots have a Jungler in Master and Legendary.

This would make the game play a bit more enticing and interesting to say the least. For master level P Vs AI, the minimum level should be 22 (for a full set of masteries, and some good runes) to give players a run for their Buck. The randomization should also host a variety of champions near the high end of ATK and AP as well as combo punching skill sets. Like twitch for example...having that RAT roam around in stealth leashing their JG or pulling off lane ganks would make it challenging!

I mean c'mon...It' not hat hard.
