Higher Difficulty AI Bots

ninjutsushi··9 votes·2,620 views

We need a new difficulty for Co-Op Vs AI. Although this mode is mainly used as a stepping stone until PVP, it's still a good practice tool for those who have taken long breaks from the game. Unfortunately, Intermediate is too easy for experienced players and it doesn't teach new players the full aspect of the game. Even when newbies reach 30 and PvP for the first time, their team can still be beaten really bad by players with smurf accounts or organized pre-made parties. In order prepare new players for PVP, we need more challenging AI Bots that are less predictable and more aggressive.

These new AI Bots may be so challenging that even pro's could struggle fighting them alone. Things would be a lot more interesting if we encounter a Jungle AI that contests objectives like baron or drake, steals red/blue buffs, and gank lanes. With higher difficulty bots, players will need to learn how to ward, position, and communicate with team members because these new bots will severely punish them for pushing a lane too far or fighting by themselves. For example, if one player chases a low health bot, perhaps the Jungle AI Bot could block and punish this player for chasing too far into enemy territory. New challenging AI Bots will teach players to work better as a team and not make careless mistakes in PvP.

We need to keep telling the devs on the forum... they cant ignore us forever, can they? D:

With that said, jungle AI is indeed bit difficult but would be possible if they gave it some free stats (cheating) and free wards so humans cant just 5v1 him for free kills lol.

Higher difficulty however would be easy. Just give them bonus stats and gold/exp.

And maybe get rid of BOTS every game ;)

(I know they add numbers to player count but it's time to stop this shame tbh)
