Adding bots to pvp?

ShUrikite··1 votes·427 views

What if, when a player on your team quits, Riot add in a bot version of that champion, same build and level, on Beginner/intermediate difficulty. The player that quit would still get the game ban, and would receive no IP or Experience of course. However the player's team would be at less of a disadvantage. Of course bots are never going to be as clever as players, but they might get a couple kills and at least try to hold back a lane. think of a bot as a stupid player, with basic knowledge but perfect ping. better have this stupid player than no player, right? Just an idea, thanks :) ShUrikite Aatrox

i would rather have an afk team mate than a bot who will give up 15 kills in lane.

You know, having no help is actually better than having a negative help.

This has been discussed before. The general consensus is that it's better to have a 4v5 than have a bot. Bots have no real self-preservation instinct and are extremely easy to kill and punish, which means tons of gold for the enemy team.

Thats what Heroes f the Storm does but I don't think it would work in LoL.

Why? Because in HotS dying a few times really doesn't mean too much. Also the bots in HotS are much, much better than the ones in LoL. In LoL, the bots would walk around feeding the enemy team a ton of kills which would be worse than having an AFK.
