they can't they are to lazy to program them or whatever excuse they were making earlier.

It's not that Riot's to lazy, it's that coding for Doom Bots legitimately takes time to code.

It existed before, why cant it exist now? i dont think there were sweeping changes to bots, except new bots were added.

Reworked SR, reworked champions, new mechanics, removed mechanics, reworked mechanics and let's not even think about behind-the-scenes coding. Basically, they most likely have to redo most of the coding to get the same thing we had 2 years ago.

Actually they have to rebuild it from the ground up You see partial parts for doom bot coding was actually attached to the old league of legends map, such as but not limited to garen in brushes and burning towers

and like you said reworked champions require fresh coding also having to put more code on abilities that are buffed

I wish we could just have it back, even if it was the exact same. Old SR and the same patch we played it on at first. I was terrible back then and couldn't even beat the lowest level. Would love to see how much better I've gotten over the last 2 years.

They're working on it, but it will take time. Some champs, like malz, have gotten completely new kits that they need to adjust. SR has gotten a major update, as well as Bot AI. New items have been added, old ones removed, and some others have been changed. All this needs to be taken into consideration when you're adjusting the champion's kits and AI, and that takes time.

I don't think doom-bots will be fun until they figure out how to improve bot AI.

Bot AI is just so easily abusable. >.<

well thats where the passives come in last doom bot event, was pretty insane

lux ult's, viktor's ult around them etc it also teaches you not to rush, while dodging their special passives

but yeah the whole problem is the Ai, if they cant fix it,or make a new one it wont work

It teaches you that the only way to win a game is through splitpush.

^ that as well, but also not to rush in like an idiot since you get severly punished for doing so

I would love to try my hand against doom bots as I was unable to play it when it first came out. Perhaps one day we can experience the inanity of doom bots

They are fun as some sort of campaign to defeat once or twice, but after that, you know the tactic and the only challenge would be to do it with every champ or the weakest champs. If you're playing with randoms, you just have to be lucky enough that your team knows what to do or you have to explain it each game and hope they understand and listen.

I just think it requires too much work to update the doombots while there are other projects that are more appealing to the majority of the players such as new client, death recap, tutorial, sandbox mode, replays, etc.

yeah I never got to try it the first time because of work. I'd be really interested in doing it now.
