kudos to whoever is programing the Vs AI bots

im serious whoever is programing these bots is doing a good job! in a game i just finished i had bot ult me then flash into a bush to break vision so she could get away (granted i still killed her) and thats legit impressive.

although bots are failing flash im still seeing it work enough and considering the fact they never even used flash before its a massive improvement.

now we just need to give them keystones and and get them to ward and even start doing crazy things like roaming or Tp ganks and we could have another difficulty for higher elo people to get some real practice.

personally i cant wait for it.

They need an "advanced" and eventually, "challenger" bot option.

Advanced bots should have keystone masteries, coordinate strategy besides push the most pushed lane, contest neutral objectives and jungle camps after 5 minutes and gank lanes.

Challenger bots leave lane and gank elsewhere OR call for help from nearby lanes if they die more than 3 times (depending on number of human players), have perfect dodge mechanics, will contest baron and/or dragon whenever they can and you are statistically unlikely to stop them, one of them takes smite and is programmed to smitesteal any visible neutral objectives, will coordinate tower dives to juggle aggro and spam mastery symbol if they get a kill.

I remember Annie before they tuned down bot reaction times. She could full combo a Riven the moment she jump-scared from brush. XD

Your summoner name fits your comment so well.

Arcade CookieJun 20, 20161 votes

Plz yes. Bots would seem more and more like real players.

They should also make bots type "OPEN MID" in all chat if the game doesn't look good for them.

LSmaster16Jun 21, 20161 votes

How about letting them flame and bm in all chat?

AeróJun 21, 20161 votes

plz yes, because if they killed you, then u deserve to be mastery'd

ArakadiaJun 20, 20162 votes

Then people might call bots OP and for nerfs xD

{quoted} spam mastery symbol if they get a kill.

lol that would be too op.

nice tableJun 20, 20162 votes

"spam mastery symbol if they get a kill." those would be bronze bots not challenger bots tho

69982196_DELJun 20, 20161 votes

And, after challenger, Korean bronze bots.

BluePolarizerJun 20, 20161 votes

I don't think that is programmable with the limited AI we have right now.

Spacesuit SpiffJun 20, 20161 votes

Apparently this was tried and bots were just too obnoxious if they played well. Not necessarily unbeatable, but very stale.

BluePolarizerJun 20, 20161 votes

I don't think it's stale at all. DOTA has advanced bots that play like the equivalent of League's plats, but without the raging. Beating hard bots 1v5 is great practice for mechanics and strategy.

Also, make them able to jungle.

Ashe bot could make it to gold in a few days. Annie bot could make it to challenger in a day.

WacingTheFindJun 20, 20169 votes

Annie Bot is already challenger. :D

Dr PoroJun 20, 20161 votes

nope, she's master.

JariJun 21, 20161 votes

Master 1 currently, but it says team 3v3 is challenger.

KoggyStyleJun 20, 20169 votes

once had a J4 bot penta my team XD

That is sad AND hilarious lmao

Very Hard EngageJun 20, 20168 votes

today, for once, i was legitimately terrified when trundle, ashe, and zilean bots all flashed after me at the same time.....

needless to say.... i reacted and flashed too.

WolfBVJun 20, 20163 votes

If I remember right, wasn't there a time when Riot had a 5 man team of bots play in ranked to see how far they could get? (Edit: Or maybe it was just people wondering how a bot team would do.)

SHlTBUGJun 20, 20161 votes

LOL that sounds hilarious

WolfBVJun 24, 20161 votes

I think that bot team might've gotten to Silver V before the season ended.

Somebody should code Malphite Bot to build full AP and ult everyone all the time.

Count ZubatJun 20, 20161 votes

You monster...

DJ S0NAJun 20, 20161 votes

Doom Bots worthy

DorkunedAurasJun 21, 20161 votes

Doombot malphite. Builds full AP, his Q is like old vlad E, targetting everyone in range. His E is lane size, and his ult is global.

What mode is this?

Twisted Treeline bots don't do squat, and they are supposed to be much harder.

the summoners rift intermediate AI, although it seems that only a select few bots can actually use flash

The more recent ones. GP and Voli bot are legitimately terrifying.

You know, I had seen bronze, and many occasions I think bots are better than these bronze players.

(a friend of mine is in bronze V and he dies in bot games...)

ApollogyJun 20, 20164 votes

There's a huge difference between low and high bronze players. Seems like low bronze players still have absolutely no idea what's happening, similar to a new player to league.

High bronze players are sometimes capable of 1v5 winning against intermediate bots.

Icestar1186Jun 21, 20161 votes

Bronze 5 has a massive amount of variation, but when you even just get to Bronze 4, you have people who legitimately understand the game - and can 1v5 bots easily.

ApollogyJun 22, 20161 votes

Probably true.

But I've seen B3 laners who don't know what their role is.

He didn't even lane...

So, a lot of bronze has variation, lol.

ManiacalCoyoteJun 20, 20162 votes

I'm Bronze 4, and whenever I went into Intermediate Bots, I share on them. I've just had craptastic luck, getting tilted teammates, trolls, or the occasional bot whenever I try to rank.

34271009DEL1Jun 20, 20161 votes

Yeah, I agree with you. The AI game mode is a challenge!

Ra1dJun 20, 20161 votes

if bots actually became difficult to play against id actually go back to ai games

DJ S0NAJun 20, 20161 votes

Bots now flash and they become real theaths. I like it. They flash offensively and defensively.

fart ninjasJun 20, 20161 votes

I look forward to the day when bots react more like a human player. Right now, in my opinion, the difference between playing AI and PvP is so huge it ain't even funny. I can fairly easily crush a AI game, but I get owned in PvP.

Celeste BenalJun 20, 20161 votes

I recall bots being OP skillshot scripted. They used to dodge skill shots with near 100% perfection. Seems Riot tuned that down a little.
