so, last 5 games, I been getting bots on my team for the past 5 games, and this last one just sucks. all of my team are bots. mind you, this is player vs AI option They're Soraka , Kalista , Nasus, and Sona on my team... I don't do blind pick, draft pick, or what other game that involes with other people on the opposing team... Im just wondering, why does League have bots?

no one really bothers with Co-op VS AI man, its only useful to get 20-30 quick IP.

Bots exist because people write programs to play the Co-op vs AI games automatically for them so they are able to afk farm IP without having to play the PVP game modes. It might dull the experience for new players, but on the upside you wont have Gold players going 40-0 in the first ten mins of a bot game and ending it by the 8 min mark. Players who want to practice do it in custom games for the most part, so Co-op vs AI is just one of those neglected beginner game modes that needs fixing or removing and replacing with tutorials.

Having a ten minute game that ends by 8 min? HOW

I had it happen a couple of times, but regardless, I dont like to play with other player is that I never really like to play iwth other people that are at a higher 'skill' level than I am.

its pretty simple game goes 10 mins, but at the eight min mark or before, they have shoved down one inhibitor and are sitting by the enemy fountain pulling in kills to have a pretty looking KDA while waiting for everyone else to push in and take the nexus. No bots in the lane means there is no surrogate enemy champion for new players to lane against so there is no point to them playing the game mode anymore, it has ended, but the game itself isn't finished.

Grammatical distinctions shouldn't be a point to discuss here though, if you want to be pedantic go to redit.

It's because dominion was removed and that's where most of the bots were. Now they have migrated to 3 v 3, coop vs ai, and pre-30 aram.

ugh, that is... depressing. Really. I was hoping that I can get back into the game, guess not.
